RUN NO. 2339 ---- live run -----
DATE: 18 JUN 2013
SITE: SPG 420 JLN MUARA, KG SG TILONG
HARES: Tina/Hashhound/Speedy Gonzales
FRONT HORN:  Ryvita  BACK HORN: Tina


Run 2339 was at 420 Jalan Muara, nice warm day for a run.

It was a live run today, so we had to chase the Hares; Hash Hound, and Speedy Gonzales. There are no checks on this run, and the Hares led the pack with a 2min head start. The third hare Tina did the back sweep. The Women's hash has not done a live run for two years, so we were all pretty stoked to give it a try. Leaders of the pack; Ryvita and Mrs Pingu took off. Often times they could stop the Hares but never quite caught up, arriving 3mins behind the Hares.

Everybody made it back in for the On On, great run, a little water, a little hills and some nice flat land to allow those who wished the opportunity to run.

We had two new visitors tonight, Vanessa who has been studying in the UK and is now her looking for work, the other was Zoe from the UK via New Zealand and has been in the country for 4months. We also had a returning member Jenny who is the daughter of Hot Lips. So welcome to the all.

We than had some celebrations Mother Nurture and Duchess of Cambridge both celebrating their 50th run and Tina who now has completed 350 runs. Way to go girls.

On a sad note we said goodbye to Hashwit who is moving on, she has completed 78 runs. She brings her humor to every Hash and will be missed but all of us. So good luck Hashwit, enjoy your up coming travels. Prior to her departure she treated us to her jokes, and a Poem "Jungle Love".
Another visit last night, was Pee Wee she brought her daughter to her first On On. Start them young, maybe we will start seeing her at Family Hash. The women had a lovely time visiting with Genieve, a great addition to the Hash Family.

As work had kept me late once more I arrived late at the hash site, however not too late to go in. Slipping and sliding, pulling myself up on the ropes one makes it finally huffing and puffing to the top of the hill just to see some beautiful trails wondering past steep cliffs and lots of mud to slight ON-ON-ON.

Once in for a while we, as I were to carpool it was my mistake for bringing other hashers late to the side my apologies, however as I said when in for a while we stumbled upon our hash ladies who made their way back along the trail. Just to find shortly after a sign stating if you were here past 5.45pm to return....as front runners we looked upon our watches and decided 5.53pm was close enough to continue (something you should never do as a fellow hen would have to go in to find you if you were too late and surely with that in mind we tried to rush ourselves a bit).
 
Past the wall, slip slide and roll all the way down must have made up some time so we were good. A few seconds were taken to look at the beautiful waterfall displayed in front of us, to return to the trail and ON we went. In the mean time we had past some of our dear ladies hashers so we weren't alone.
Coming in late I had no idea where the checks were nor who had found them, but well done ladies for laying the trail through so we could find our way back out and down the steep hill right before it got dark!
 
Thanks front horn Mrs Pinggu and back horn GI Jane for driving the pack back in safety.
After a little drive we were welcomed in Dizzies paradise where songs were sung, hashit was splashed and a wonderful Pakistani dish was presented to us. Not forgetting the amazing chocolate cakes to top off an other wonderful hash evening! Thanks Dizzie and Velma for a great night!

RUN NO. 2337 SPG 1046 JLN MUARA- 4 JUN 2013

RUN NO. 2337
DATE: 4 JUNE 2013
SITE: SPG 1046 JLN MUARA, KG SALAMBIGAR
HARES: IKEA/RYVITA

This week's Swedish Run was eagerly anticipated by those who love meatballs and IKEA, and obviously a trek in the jungle!! We turned up to Jalan Muara, some of us driving through rain but luckily it was dry when we got there.

As 5.15 approached it saw a few stragglers making their way to the start point, covered up in anticipation of the promised mozzies!! So with the smell of OFF! in our nostrils we headed off along Jalan Muara and right into what appeared to be a private drive! Having skirted around the edge along a stream we entered the quite different but unexpectedly lovely old orchards where we ran along paths around and up towards the jungle. Those at the front had a moment of confusion where the paper appeared to go left but was then found up ahead so we decided to continue up ahead expecting the other paper to be the out. (That was actually the first check, but hey, mistakes happen!)

On reaching the top of a gentle rise we were all treated to a lovely stretch of water where some took the chance to photograph the scene.


 
 
 

On on we went and through the jungle finding the 2nd and 3rd checks without much bother and dodging the mozzies as we went. A lovely variety with paths, orchards, water and jungle! Although we missed the first check we all enjoyed this slightly easier wander through an area which we may never have discovered if it wasn't for the hash, that's why we love it, expect the unexpected!!
Hares
 
The On On was at IKEA's house where whilst having refreshment we stretched our brains to find any tiny amount of Swedish knowledge we had to complete a quiz all about the land of IKEA! Turns out we don't know much and who knew that Dynamite was invented in Sweden!!! Nicole who was a returning hasher for the first time in a long time apparently knows the most and managed 11 out of 14 in the quiz and hared her winnings of Dime bars amongst us.
 
It was great to see Hares Ryvita and Ikea dressed in their Swedish clothes and they were so carried away by the occasion that they nearly forgot the presence of their friend and first-time hasher Kym, which led to the Hashit being hsared between them and Satu Lagi whose brief to her guest was sabotaged!!!
 
 
After singing to our June birthday girls (Velma, Dizzy & Sue) we were reminded of Hash rules in the jungle and the necessary shouts. Mother Nurture againh enticed us all with her Hash lights job with cute light bulb torches and the job was gratefully taken on by Karlene.
 
We were then treated to some excellent Swedish fare, meatballs and fab gravy and sauce with scrummy potatoes, topped off with chocolate!! What more could you ask for? Than you ladies!!!
