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’.
