FRONT HORN: Carol

HENS: 37 CHICKS: 1

This weeks run was a later start than normal and in new territory and so it was difficult to guess how long it would take to get to the hash site.  Going via the coastal road seemed to be no problem but those taking Jln Telenai were stuck in traffic for nearly an hour, almost being late for the run.  .  The horn sounded a little after 6 (with Carol being front horn and Alice in Wonderland taking the back horn) and the group of hens soon split, with the front runners at quite a good pace.  To the main road and left and then up the next simpang took us to some pretty spooky areas.  We watched out for ghosts and ghouls in the deserted bungalow and mansion and followed the paper towards the shooting range and jungle area.
 
First check was positioned behind a tree and all front runners went off checking into the depths of the jungle.  With torches on, the hens slowly checked each trail, only to hear a back call by Sarah to the paper on a mud trail.  Careful to pick up all the paper and lay it through, the front runners were soon at the back of the group catching up with the others.  The mud trail was beautifully lit with candles, glowing a soft orange in the night.  Just as I reached the check, the call from the on paper could be heard in the distance by Trish, following more golden candles.  This trail took us to the start of another simpang, which we followed to the main road and then on back to Nellie’s house.

At the end of the run, the hens soon transformed themselves into a variety of ghouls, monsters, devils and witches.  Once the potatoes arrived, there was as usual a noisy shout up (with the assistance of the laughing pumpkin) and photo opportunity in and around the Halloween décor of the patio and garden.  Best dress ups were awarded to Dizzy, Carol, Rosie and Julie-Anne and Trailblazer went trick or treating.  The scary hens put on a fine spread of hot potatoes, grated cheese, baked beans and salad to end the evening.
