Run 392.
Hares were Bangseat and Cockpit, and we all met at
steamy Sungai Batu Asah
(and if you readers are amazed at the fact I even knew the local name for the
place, I have to confess to getting Cockpit to write it down for me - I cannot
tell a lie - I would be found out anyway). The run was great fun,
if the usual mountain goat country these two insist on giving us. After
climbing mini Everest the run down and back to the circle area was good for the
runners, very scenic for the fast walkers, and I have no idea why the rest took
so long. Oedipussy insisted he was
sweeping, but the general consensus was he was just bloody slow.
There were only 19 of us which was pretty low numbers,
but we made up for numbers lack with great enthusiasm, especially with penalty
waters. The GM, the first of the rotating GM's, was Oedipussy, so we welcomed him with a generous slosh of cold
water, then he officially gave up the toilet seat, so got another
dousing. There were no virgins, no new shoes, no naming to be done.
However Cunning Stunt arrived back, late and wounded. She fell over a
corrugated iron fence/gate, wounded her rear end and sprained her
hand. She was suitably chastised. At this point I would like
to point out that Battleaxe was the executioner, for the first time, and she
indulged offenders with gusto, especially C.S. who was supposed to play golf
with her the next day. Shame. But
her backside was liberally doused with VERY icy water.
We all felt that Oedipussy had done a good job, unappreciated
by all who were not there, so he is GM next hash so that you can all experience
his expertise. He was disciplined, of course.
It was generally agreed that we should have a small first aid kit with the hash
stuff, considering where we run, so Cockpit is putting that together.
Finish and Horny have kindly offered to look after all the Hash Kit (and be the
Hares for next run) from now on, so that will make getting it very easy from
their loft premises. The feeling amongst almost everyone was that
we should now consider going back to Friday runs, as there has been quite a lot
of dissatisfaction with Saturday, and there is now no difficulty in getting the
bins, booze and brouhaha. However, it was conceded that we should
wait for a larger group for this to be decided.
We repaired to Ka Kee Lang Steamboat, for a really
great meal. Well done Hares.
