 Scribe's Report

The location beyond Pondok Cabe ensured that many Hashers would arrive past the hour of the horn. Twenty runners set of with another twenty setting off over the next 50 minutes. Obligingly the hares had laid a short easy run so all runners were back in before 6.00. Superbrat ran it in 33 minutes so ran it again, just for fun in under 30 minutes. The country was terrific. Great running country with good trails, not too many Kampongs, not too many crops too bash and no roads. The bridges were all easy as were most of the checks and the cunning little loop at the end had some runners opting for it just to extend the running time. The run discussion had Hashers displaying the usual variety of comments from good to Hashshit - but more of this later. Elephant Man after his late arrival back at 6.50 had told Vatican Rag that he had spent the first part of the run following a horn which turned out to be a kaki lima. Of course VR enlightened the circle of this so Elephant Man's assessment of the run was "good for the first 100 metres". Stretch thought it was a nostalgic run but then he has been here forever. LickaLad ran it twice as first time he lost his watch, which he found second time around. Mudguard thought it too short and Colonel Bloodknock mentioned something about the trail leading through a grave. BB liked the countryside but thought that a 1hour 50 minute drive to run for half an hour was excessive. The controversial comment was from Angie who came upon VR still laying the trail. Was this a Hashshit? Konkrete Kok admitted having a vested interest being half of the current Hashshit holder team and left the decision to Tarzan who declared it a good run!

The HM, Konkrete Kok was a late starter but soon caught up and opened the proceedings on time. The sad demise of Uranus was announced - he has joined that Hash in the sky and a respectful two minutes silence was observed. On a lighter note the Hash Horn re-appeared and Skinhead who has been away for some months was accused of the dastardly deed as being the obvious perpetrator (Not Bolt-1-On of course). LickaClit was given a drink in advance of his leaving for Dubai, supposedly in case he doesn't turn up to the Hash again. Lots of returners, too many to mention them by name. Two new members, Vibrator and Oleg Schkoda and two visitors, Rob Coalman Colliers and Leaky Mick. Stretch got a DD as he always leaves early (but then stayed on for most of the evening).

 The Hash Has New Trash

Herpes was called in to do his modelling of the new Hash casual shirt and running shorts. A bargain at Rp.70,000 for the set (that's only $8) or Rp.45,000 for the shirts and Rp.30,000 for the shorts. Unfortunately these seemed to be samples as he did not have any for sale. At this point it was realised that Elephant Man was missing and a fellow Welsh bastard, Col. Bloodknock led the circle in a rousing chorus of "Lloyd George" which worked as Elephant Man trotted into the circle.

 Vibrator got his 10 run shirt - an original collector's item, rarely seen these days. He started to sing "To Sara,Sara" but was quickly removed. Elephant Man was back in the circle again for his 150 run shirt and sang "My Hen Laid a Haddock" with help from Col Bloodknock again. 400 run shirt for Rubber Turd and a 750 run shirt for Vatican Rag. I couldn't hear what Witless said to him but for some reason VR lost his R and through beer over him.

 1500 runs between them

Tom Jones and Vatican were awarded their 750 run mugs. Tom Jones read a few jokes, which were appreciated not least by Tom Jones. Vatican Rag excelled himself and entertained the circle for several minutes with a clean version of "Blue Suede Shoes" followed by an original song "Just a little Baby - Suck my Cock" in New Orleans style and a Dr DoLittle number "If I only Did the Things I Thought of Doing".

 The Master of Music Mudguard got off lightly yet again with just a couple of songs and the RA, Go-Blok-M was not too active as there was plenty else to keep things moving. All-in-all an excellent evening marred only by the locval Lurah and RT who caused agro for Sukardi, Tarzan and others all evening. Thanks to those who stayed until the beer truck had packed up.

 Thanks to the Sponsors
