Run #117 July 20, 2013 Run Report
Location: Wild Woman Farm near Santiburi
Hares: Wirgin Bluce and Wild Woman
The July 20th hash turned out to be a pleasant affair as the weather was perfect – cool but no rain. It was hared by Wirgin Bluce and Wild Woman at their farm which strangely enough is less than 500 m. away from their main house in Santiburi. The trail was effectively the same trail Wirgin Bluce has set in various combinations and permutations for the last 5 years. However, true to form, Wirgin Bluce set some exceptionally hard checks that initially threw off the FRBs, but not for long as equally true to form, Nam Ron arrogently a ssumed he knew the way forward and ended up running at least a third of the trail in reverse. The mismash of paper then so confused the Second Walking Bastards, notably Lost Samurai, Nok Easy and On Fire that they ended up getting lost. This obliged the long suffering Wirgin Bluce to accompany a worried Fired Up in a vain attempt to rescue the missing SWBs. Meanwhile the rest of the befuddled hashers could not believe that a 6 km hash could take over 2 hours! A howling two year old, Intira however could not be fooled and she thus compelled her parents, Comes Twice and Blows Twice to head back home. Although it didn’t rain during the hash, it had rained prior so the trails were enjoyably sloppy and even the most prudish of the hashers returned with muddy feet. Two unnamed hashers showed up and ran hard. Just for fun we will call them Brian and Bill. Bill was thrown by Wirgin Bluce’s checks and eventually faded after venturing off on one false trail after another. Namron was able to stay ahead of Brian due to his local knowledge of the trails but after the on-in, Brian turned on the afterburners and left Namron cursing for calling “on-on” at all the checks Brian got wrong. After the hares eventually retrieved the lost flock, the sermon began with Namron leading the hymns. We were graced by the presence of Boy Magnet who after a six year hiatus came back from China to model the latest fashion of hash shirts. She looked simply stunning in the sapphire blue shirt and gave a wag of the tail for Bill, who to the astonishment of all refused to cough up 200 baht for such a prize. However, we did take a note and next month we will have one of our young handsome boys model the shirt again especially for him. (We did manage to sell 2 hash shirts to the more sensible hashers including Farang Friendly who were indeed charmed by Boy Magnet's magnetism.) We also honored our newest member Crash. However, since he couldn’t remember ANY hash songs after doing 2000+ hashes Namron serenaded him with “He’s the Meanest.” Crash gave his surprisingly fit 3 year old daughter, Emily the chance to name herself and she came back with “Six.” (Must be related to the number of bullets in daddy’s gun.) Shocking was back in form and completed nearly the whole hash! We filled up the hare line until Feb. 2014 by unanimously voting to give the absent Oral Banger a chance to lay the Sept. hash and Crash the Oct. hash. Finally, Wild Woman, always the gracious hostess provided everyone with abundant amounts of pizza. Overall, a very enjoyable hash!
On! On!
