DATE: 3 DECEMBER 2013
SITE: RAPIER RANGE, COASTAL HIGHWAY
HARES: Pee Wee/Madam Sin/Nancy
The Rapier Range out along the coast road, past Jerudong Park, is
not a run we do very often. By coincidence it is where I laid my
virgin run 9 years ago with the help of Karen Hedderman, who many
of you will remember as Legolass.
One or two
people took a wrong turn before finding the site, but the effort was
well worth it. It was a calm and clear evening for a run/walk in the
jungle. We went in to the right, up a hill and then had an open walk
through scrub before reaching first check, which then led us into the
jungle. A few ups and downs before reaching second check, at which point
I heard back horn call for
us to stop and turn around. It was 5.45 and starting to get dark, and
the hares had phoned to say they were not yet out. On the reverse, there
was plenty of light as we retraced our steps through the jungle, and as
the sun set we left the trees behind us, and the open landscape gave us
more light.
I believe that the Tutong Hash were
at The Rapier Range the night before us, and this may be the reason why
three Hashers were left in the jungle, going around in circles. One of
these was our visiting hasher who had flown in from Kuala Lumpur. I hope
she has not been put off joining us another time. Pee Wee and Satu
Lagi with the assistance of Psycho and Alice in Wonderland went to the rescue and no harm was done.
As
the food was going cold it was decided that the masses should eat before
the appearance of the lost three. We then had the shout up on their
return. Numbers were down as many people have already left
for the holidays.
Thanks go to the Hares for a yummy curry, front and back horn, and well done to Nancy on laying her first hash.
NEXT RUN: Kota Batu ---- pls bring a chair.
HARES: Dizzy/Pea Hen
