Run: 1204
Venue: Dar yacht Club beach banda
Running Hares: Boxer and Wet Dream
Walking hare: Nasty Pasty

Last weeks scribbles opened with ‘The swift change of venue from Yacht Club to Tania’s house may have caught out one or two, but some lazier hashers obviously felt the weekends cobwebs were too thick to overcome ..... ‘.

Well read the same in reverse this week .... Jason’s house was changed to the Yacht Club .... the map that Frozen Assets gave the DYC last week for the changed venue was given out by the DYC security this week so some may have headed off to Tania’s again .... others were obviously overcome with slothfullness ... SNAFU (Situation Normal All Fu’‘ed Up).

Probably the smallest pack for a good few months gathered at the beach banda, set on exercising those drinking muscles - after a brief burst of energy wasting. Boxer had set a long and a short run so guess who of the two hares did the short run (and lost the trail after the second check point). The long run was an ambitious attempt to fit 8 kilometres of running on road, beach and cliff into a 5 kilometre time slot. The long run pack set off as 9 and returned as a bedraggled and sweaty two plus a hare. Jesus said he thought the long run was a ‘good run’ - who’s he kidding - even he short cutted from the cliff path in the dark - sensible man.

The circle was even less well attended, as people sloped off for various reasons, but ChickenShit and BumTitty put in belated appearances to keep the spirits up.

Wet Dream returned to the fold as GM. Announcements were merely a MisManagement Committee meeting some Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, next week or the week after (or the week after that if Park’n’Ride had her way) - normal decisive management to the fore. Trailmaster Boxer got in by the skin of his teeth yet again and was able to explain the receding hareline extended as far as next Monday, courtesy of Jesus and Seepha. The run will be in Mikocheni, from the Lora International Restaurant and Pub again, with the circle potentially in the swimming pool if the last run there is anything to go by, so bring a change of clothing. (Run 1187 in March was the previous run from here.)

The hares got off lightly with the short runners getting lost, the long runners returning way after dark, only the walkers trail being honestly used.

With our R.A. BothWays desperate desire to paint her toenails again ... she probably hadn’t done it since last Monday ... keeping her away from us, Jesus rose again, from the heights of Addis, for the occasion and stood in. One set of keys went without claimant from the valuables box, and two virgins admitting their status gave him the initial fodder to work with; followed by Vanessa’s IUD shaped water bottle, which Mother Immoral claimed was not hers .. but maybe BumTitty should check her out to be sure. DianA and NastyPasty were happily chatting away in the alternative circle until Jesus hauled them into the circle to suffer their fate; and ‘Hashy Birthday’ got an airing for a 20th. The 4 returnees were Wet Dream, Jesus, Seepha and Mother Immoral; and WE HAD NO HASH SHIT. BeggingForIt was said to be unavoidably detained (also painting toenails perhaps) so Mother Immoral was used as a stand in (despite doing a Judas to Jesus and saying that St Knickerless is BFIs best friend, not me). In an unusual splurge of chivalry (as noted by the GM) the RA not only drank with Mother Immoral, but also drank her down down - thirsty work this RAing obviously. A quick partial rendition of Sir Jasper in honour of MI and the GM called for a democratic vote. In view of the single candidate even we got the idea and MI, the virgins, the RA and the GM led Swing Low before heading off to the chow.

Not many partakers makes for lots of food, which requires lots of liquid to wash it down, especially if it’s a curry (guess what the food was) so a small number of beers may have been taken for medicinal reasons. It was a while before the banda was restored to its normal tranquillity.

Be rash and head out of the office early next week. See you at Mikocheni (Lora Int. Rest. and Pub) for a Jesus run (he always does a good job).

ON ON
