Report of the October 20 Hash

The usual suspects met up off the old Chiang Mai highway for our latest hash. Unusually, Wirgin Bluce was not present, and will therefore not be able to offer helpful editing tips for the improvement of this report, however he did email the scribe a list of the attendees, from which the scribe is able to report that the attendance consisted of 16 hashers and 2 children (not married to any of the hashers). Wirgin Bluce’s statistics even divulged which of the hashers sprung for the beer as opposed to the soft drink option, and upon close analysis it becomes clear that the Chiang Rai hash is indeed very family-friendly, to the extent, possibly, of running counter to the worldwide hashing creed. Hmmm. The hash was ably hared by Able Semen, who was able to lay a very tricky series of checks etc, to the extent that at one point he was able to trick two groups of hashers into encountering each other going in opposite directions on the same path. The trail was in fact so confusing that Able Semen wisely decided to drive around it on his scooter in order to offer assistance to the lost hashers. Somehow, as always, everyone made it back safely and the Circle began. There was a newcomer from the UK, and Shocking, scenting weakness, managed to rapidly sell him a t-shirt. Mercilessly, on a roll, he then tried to sell him a second one. There was also a naming ceremony for a third time hasher who will henceforth walk the earth rejoicing in the name Lone Walker. He is from Liverpool, like Shocking, and his hash name is some kind of an in-joke for people from Liverpool. Shocking and Lone Walker then continued for some time with their in-jokes from Liverpool, unfortunately this was over the head of the scribe and therefore cannot be transcribed. There was also a brief business-of-the-day debate about whether the forthcoming 111th Chiang Rai Hash should be a special occasion, during which it was democratically decided by Shocking that it should not be.
