They are Hashers they true blue
They are Hashers true and true
They are Peace-Co so they say
Tried to go to heaven but they went the wrong way! ! ! !

I arrived at the site with ice, pleased with myself as I was early for once. After chit -chatting with Espania and San san and signing in, soon it was time to go in and the horn went. Instead of the usual dashing in by the front runners, Hens gathered round Readymix’s car who was talking to a man. Very quickly a few of us joined in. “No you cannot go through the building site, I have no insurance cover for anybody who might be injured or any damage to the property on the site,” the man was adamantly saying. There was a lot of truth in what he was saying, but the run had already been set, the Hares were still in and Glamour had already gone in.
As the man walked away there seemed to be some confusion, some of the Hares started to run in as they did not quite understand what the man had said. Stop” Readymix called out let’s move to Tungku beach she suggested. A few of us who understood what was going on began to load our cars with the Hash property, Smurf suggested that we go to DST, as it was safer than Tungku beach. By then some of the hens had already run off towards Tungku beach leaving their cars behind.

It took a while to call everyone back to Km 22.5 Coastal Highway and collect their cars to go to DST. I arrived first with one of the guests, but got a bit worried that I had gone to the wrong place since Naj had been saying that we were going to DST near her house. I thought she probably meant Rimba. So I rang Smurf who was still at Km 22.5 waiting for Glamour and the Hares, to confirm that I was at the right site. Soon after me and the guest Trailblazer arrived on the new site then Alison and Cheryl, followed by Sarong. “Let’s have a live run, any one with paper?’ Alison suggested. Sarong who probably is a girl guide produced a roll of toilet paper, and off Alison and Cheryl went laying the run with “Toilet Paper.” through the trails where Alice and I had done the recce for our run. So when everyone arrived at the new site they all followed the Toilet paper. How convenient!

Very exiting indeed and what an experience! Poor Glamour she must have wondered why no one else followed her, let alone the Hares who might have thought that everyone “went the wrong way.” (GM Trailblazer had phone contact with Glamour and verified that she was out)No, in fact, they were going “through and through.” The run went very smoothly with no more mishap, and I am sure everyone enjoyed themselves. Thank you to everyone for their co-operation and Cheryl and Alison for quickly rescuing the situation.

Selamat Hari Raya! especially to our Muslim friends. I hope everyone enjoyed the celebrations over the long weekend.

NEXT RUN: DST
