“Happy
Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday dear JM, Happy
Birthday to you! “
Yes last week was all about celebrating the September birthdays and
as a special gift to us all, our JM Hash Hound for her birthday gave
us a run.
We had run at this
site recently, but still the jungle was gorgeous, there were plenty
of hills and some interesting river crossings . As you would
expect..it was a good length run, with front runners taking an hour
and others taking a bit longer. It was a lollipop i.e. the in is
the out “Lolly
Pop Lolly Pop …ooh lolly lolly pop! ” and a
sneaky back check meant that some of us late comers were soon with
the front runners for the second check. Mmm could the 2nd
check be another back check..50-50 chance of being right..so I
checked ahead, to be that 50% of wrong.
By now there were a
handful of front runners on the trail, coming out at one of the new
buildings . Little did the hare know that the third check was in
exactly the same spot as last time; because on the last run at this
site, the front horn had taken them out on old paper and so only a
handful of us had done the full run. Chuckling to myself, I found
3rd check pretty quickly and we were soon to be on the out
trail, back on the road and up the hill to the On On site. At this
point I had to dash (sorry it was Daniella’s 10th
birthday) so now the story I have to tell is one that has been told
to me.
It seems like one of
our new hashers missed the turning back into the jungle from the new
building..trampled on paper seemed to have disappeared and off they
went (who knows where off paper) “We’re
on the road to nowhere”. Hares and hashers
went in to find her and she was out safely in the end.
The shout up was
eventful, with some new guests, lovely food was catered from Maha
Osai Restaurant in Berakas (673 233876). Hash-it was awarded for
hashers not looking after their guests properly and a fun evening was
had by all.
Three tips from
tonights run:
- When laying a hash – lay paper both on the floor and in the trees
- When signing in a guest – make sure that they stay with you.
