Your hash trash Towed is still out of town, but to
ensure that there is a lasting reminder for those on their way out of
Bangladesh, yours ex-scribe Warm&Fluffy, will step into the breach….
The Run/Walk: the hares made up the farewell crew who
had, between them, only a couple of weeks left in Dhaka. However, as the slogan
on their t-shirt said: “You never leave Bangladesh, you only go home for a
while”.
Looking organised (?) they told us what to do (stay on
paper) and where to go (that way). The rain of the last few days was sure to
offer up lots of shiggy and lots of opportunities to fall arse-over-tit (now we
haven’t seen him on the hash for a while!!).
The entire hash was characterised by its
prevalence of mud, smelly mud, water, smelly water and shit (not just the
four-legged animal variety – believe me I know). Walkers and runners alike
found themselves slipping and sliding their way along narrow embankments as
they set off from the A-point. A few local dogs tagged along just to see what we
were up to….WebFart being the main attraction.
Whilst runners checked it out, walkers surged ahead,
with FWB hares keeping an eye out for the stragglers.
Negotiating foliage and slippy slopes
remained the norm, however hashers continued to prove themselves well-balanced
(physically if not mentally); tired at the lack of mud-sliding Bozo called out
to MiddleStump on one particularly slippy bit – told him to get his arse over
his tit. MiddleStump ably obliged right in front of hash flash!
From muddy embankments to flooded roads as we hashed
our way back into civilisation and Baridhara…
After negotiating the rickshaw-infested streets and
the traffic we soon picking our way around Gulshan Lake, finally ending up on
SexStarved’s roof for a fine view and a rather irregular circle.
The Circle: Deputy GM WebFart led us through the
formalities of hares (the soon-to-be-gones), virgins (5 of them but no idea who
they are due to the speediness of the introductions), the returnees (which
included yours truly) and the many many leavers (escaping the monsoon).
Permanent leaver SwedishFootJob received her special leavers mug…
There were also a couple of certificates to hand out:
Emil and ComicStripper having notched up a respectable 75 between them.
Religious Advice: Eagle-eyed BozoTC started off by sorting
the circle out – gathering in those who were hiding behind the washing line
(CamelJockey, Deportee, TallMan and ???). He then went on to tell us why he had
no RA’s hat….because WebFart had forgotten to bring it!!! DD to the
‘hat-forgeter-er’.
Racers on the hash never cease to amaze –
someone always dobs them and LBH is always involved: ‘racers and teller-ers’
for RuggerBugger, PussyPickUp and LBH.
No escape for RuggerBugger for complaining about the
lack of paper on the trail – an A4 sheet of paper not enough then! Should we be
cutting down more trees for the hash then! The finger pointed at the ‘non-green
hasher we should all point at’.
MiddleStump shiggy hero was rewarded with 2 beers for
his slide into the mire on demand by Bozo: ‘jumper inner-er’.
Lovely t-shirts courtesy of SwedishFootJob,
but on examination of the design Bozo had to bring in 9-year-old PrinceZulu and
ask whether he’d drawn the picture. “No” was the reply, so it really was down
to SFJ to take her DD for the ‘hash’s own Picasso’.
Juxtaposition to follow as FoxyRunner and Matheus took
centre stage: Matheus representing the head of hair Foxy must have had when he
first arrived in Dhaka 4 years previously…
Matheus was then berated for asking what to shout and
why during the hash – this his 2nd hash as well! The ‘retarded
much-ass’ (well that’s what I thought Bozo said).
Geli and nurse Ann were brought in as our own hash
newspaper celebrities. Geli for headlining us on our generous (and unwitting)
donation to a local madrassa; Ann for being on the front page for bringing lots
of good nursing to Bangladesh. DD to the ‘Newspaper mugals’.
There and then a new hash name was born. Ann will from
now on be known as ‘FrontPage’.
Announcements: some announcement about the Bali hash who
want the Dhaka HHH (or is it the D Mixed HHH or the D mens HHH – so much
choice) to support their bid for Interhash 2010. And what are they going to do
for us!!??
Next week’s hash: ISD 5pm, A to B.
On paper….…
