The Run From
Pagoda we were on convoy for a couple of kilometres before a short walk down
to the ferry which it took about half an hour for everyone to cross. Once loaded with hashers the ferry didn’t
have too much in the way of freeboard, resulting an a few wet bums if the
boats rocked a little. Can’t Pull
managed to demonstrate the he can’t throw also – in an attempt to splash
ferry occupants he managed to hit Horse’s Arse in the kidneys with a
half-brick precipitating a relapse of Horse’s hepatitis. Much to the entertainment of the locals we
had a warm-up with Father Abraham then set off pretty much northwards and to
the Hindu village. I’ve
tried to work out where the hell we went from Google earth but for the life
of me I can’t. Once we were away from
the village we swung south and then seemed to head back to where we had come
from. As usual, serious contributions
to our directional confusion were made by Pussy Pick Up whizzing around at
the front of the pack trying to prove the theory of random selection,
whatever that might be. We did catch
the walkers, hence we can have one of the very few pictures of them in a
trash. We continued south, ending up
at a brick kiln and then headed west again on a brick road for a while,
before branching off across country.
We eventually came to territory familiar from Run 1367 (at least it
looked the same – sort of flattish with grass and trees). There
followed some fairly long run-outs through clay pits and around them with the
pack being kept pretty well together thanks to the lack of ability of the
FRBs to find paper and, probably, some judicious guidance of the slower
runners by the Hares. With
almost perfect timing we reached the On-In, in another clay pit, slightly
ahead of the walkers. What was even
more amazing was that the site was remote enough for there to be no local
audience for us to perform for! |

The Circle The
circle began, somewhat unusually, with a Nash Hash announcement, the theory
being that by the time the RA’s had finished, no-one would be paying any
attention. There is a giant leap of
faith here on the part of the GM in the assumption that anyone might be
paying attention at the start.
Organisers Warm & Fluffy and Geli were duly given a down-down for
all their hard work after W&F had shouted at us for a bit. The
Hares got a very well deserved vote of thanks for what was an excellent run
before Virgins Ali and Darren were invited to introduce themselves. Ali, like the rest of us, hadn’t a clue
what he was doing at the Hash and Darren is from Australia and is a kept man. The
GM then proceeded to get my nearest and dearest mixed up. Just because she was wearing a yellow
shirt Penis assumed that she must be Custard Tart and the other one Towed
Under. They’re from the UK and were
out on a brief visit to see little old me. Returnees
were Rail Jerker, who’s been in Chennai, King Dong who was in Kurdistan and
Dunny Gone and Hairy Crack who had been to Bangkok. Leavers were Doug and Show Dawg, off to Hong Kong, Crusty
Lobster and Goose Bumpy off to Delhi and Glenn, also heading for Hong
Kong. Permanent Leaver was Fred who
is heading back to Chicago. Cue for a
song? Only for some, so an appalling
version of the Department Store song, mixed with the usual hash song ensued. Final
Honours went to GELI who has done an AMAZING 400 RUNS. Five-Year-Old-Shit
then stepped forward and immediately reverted to his artistic roots with
charges of a lack of dress sense against Foreskin, Elaine and Dunny Gone (who
in best Aussie tradition had vomit down the front of his shirt) and Doug and
Show Dawg for posing. Dunny Gone used
his stiff arm down-down to remove the offending puke. Then
Homeless was invited into the circle after a number of hashers had overheard
him yearning for the days when he was a great runner, or at least so he was
claiming in an effort to impress the 14-year old visitor, Custard Tart. Homeless had spent the whole run chatting
her up. Continuing in the vein of
paedophilia, Challenger was invited to explain what he was doing chatting up
a young Bengali girl. Rock
lobbers at the ferry, Foreskin, Can’t Pull were called in, along with victim
Horse’s Arse. You’d think they would
have grown up by now, but boys will be boys.
After a couple more down-downs FYOS decided that it was time that Fred
got his just desserts for being possibly more boring than Pubic Hare’s
commentaries on the history of every bridge in Bangladesh with his monotonous
count down in hours, minutes and seconds to the moment of his departure from
Dhaka. Proceedings
were then handed over to second RA, Webfart who promptly hauled FYOS back in
for not knowing whether he was on the run or the walk then had Challenger in
again for chatting up young Bengali girls. Blow
Job and Ménage a Tina, along with the walking Hares were castigated for
leading from behind in order to stay with the two young bumbies and having a
Hare to Hasher ratio of one-to-one.
Snappy dressers Hairless Beaver and King Dong were invited to explain
their dress mode, which was not exactly hash gear and finally Penis was
hauled in for confessing to being tired after only ten minutes of the run and
making announcements before the start of the circle rather than, as is
customary, at the end. There
followed a brief discussion on the merits of the soon to expire GM and the
skills required by her replacement.
So why is Blow Job serving an apprenticeship? Thanks
to the Hares for an excellent run. On On Towed |
