Trek-or-Treat tells us where to
go |
The RV With so many
hashers off on their Eid-ul-azhar / Christmas holidays it was a small
turnout. The committee still peddled a few wares (i.e. hash calendars and
hash t-shirts). Geli proved that he didn’t know one day from the next when he
turned up in a Christmas special red t-shirt, only 3 days early! Crippled
deputy hash mattress WebFart called us to order and gave the hares their
charge, then climbed back into his car and buggered off (to the BAGHA for a
beer probably). The Run A bit of a
loopy hash which led us on a small running and walking tour of Gulshan and
Banani, with 2ndCumming running twice the distance of everybody
else as he failed to pick one correct trail at the checks. The hares
obviously thought we were an unfit bunch as there were checks every 100metres
or so (or was that just to get 2ndCumming REALLY confused). Hares tried to
arrive back in 69 minutes but by my watch it was 72 – sorry guys! Maybe we
ran 6.9km but as I didn’t have any technology to refer to I had no idea. Not
quite A-to-A as we wound up on Trek-Or-Treat and CrustLobster’s roof for the
circle, where HM WebFart was sitting back, relaxing and enjoying the view
(idle bastard). The Circle Deputy HM
WebFart had failed to take any part whatsoever in the run or walk, but was on
hand to carry out his hashing duties. First up we told the hares what we’d
thought of the run – and lo-and-behold we thought it was bollocks (now
there’s a surprise). Welcome to
Chen, our virgin from Taiwan, here to work and not play (so what’s he doing
on the hash??). Returnees
ShortDick from Singapore and BulletDodger from Bolivia (any drugs?), and bye
bye to leavers BjornAgain, Geli and son, TwoBottles and Fred, all of them off
to spend Christmas in much colder climates! A certificate
for a 125-running BumDeal, wey-hey. Religious
Advice from Bozo-the-Clown: Thou shalt not
wear non-mixed hash t-shirts on the mixed hash – shalt thou BlowPipe; and
when it says wear a red t-shirt on Christmas Day that doesn’t mean 22nd
December does in now Geli!? ‘T-shirt crimes’. A tired
2ndCumming who managed to take all the wrong turns at every check:
‘pathfinder genius’. Chasing
Deportee around the circle for speaking on his mobile phone – but Bozo soon
got a hold of it and told the caller (very politely) to call back later;
‘technology on the hash’. Wouldn’t we
all, as hashers, tell the other hashers when a special event had occurred in
our lives! It seems that MintyHole wouldn’t since he’d got married and not
told a f**king soul (except for the 10 people he had told but had sworn to
silence). Not only had
he got married (and consequently had no energy for running in an LBH-shag a
teenager-sort of way) he’d had a birthday too; obviously Minty is
‘embarrassed to be a hasher’. Horse’sArse
has shown himself to be a reasonably intelligent sort of hasher, so why oh
why does he shout at cars that blow their horns – they’re not going to pay
him any attention and he’ll only give himself a ‘cranial aneurism’ (or was it
embolism??). WebFart
exhibited pure idleness by turning up at the RV as HM, buggering off during
the run, then turning up again as HM for the circle: ‘turning idleness into
an art-form’. Announcements: Christmas Day
