Stats: 23 Members , 6 New Members , 34 Visitors/Unmentionables/Horrors = Total 63

The occasion – election day in Indonesia for those receiving this overseas warranted a special run and we got three of them. The horrors had their own run and the rest had a choice of medium or long. They all started together and colour coded arrows directed you to the right, or wrong, trail. This one chose the medium run despite warnings from Bolt-1-On that he had got lost, messed op the run and had to relay most of it. He claimed that it took him 3 and a half hours including the Ojek ride to get back from wherever he got lost. Well he really let me down. Having laid some bloody awful runs over the last few months, this was a good run! The country was new to us Jakarta Hashers although not to the Bogor Hashers present who had apparently run on the same trail last Tuesday – really?!! Good checks near the start kept the pack together. The trail followed paths with minimal excursions into crops – Bolt-1-On is learning! Good trails, interesting bridges, good paper/paint despite the rubbed out check back – but he did warn us in all fairness. Front runners from both long and medium runs were back in just under an hour with most people except Bullshit arriving well before 5.30 (it was a 4.00 start).

 So what did other people think? Konkrete Kock thought it well conceived – rare praise indeed for Bolt-1-On. However the truth came out that there were lots of boys in the kampongs much to Konkrete’s delight. Elephant Man confirmed this apparently it was not a pretty sight to see Konkrete frothing at the mouth. Stretch was not happy – apparently he kept having problems with the bananas hanging too low. The rest of us didn’t seem to have a problem. Nipples thought it was a good run as Yoshi for once was not the last home. Yoshi was given a DD at this point for being an Agassi look-a-like. Tarzan was on another run somewhere? Olga thought it a HashShit as she had her husband running behind her. SuperBrat rated it well – good country, good checks. Jonesy took the medium run as a power walker (or was it Power Ranger?). Master Stretch thought it was "fine" and Snowballs said it was a good run. Bogor runner Knut enjoyed doing the full run as he got lost when they did the same trail on Tuesday. HM declared it a "Very Good Run".

Election day meant no beer truck and so the Hares were to be thanked for the arrangements. The location (Novotel at Bogor) was superb and provided a good setting for the Circle. They even turned the tennis court lights round for us. A slow start to the circle but with the early run start, there was plenty of time. DD’s for the Committee to get things rolling and one for Jonesy for looking like Habibie and for Konkrete as the ex-Pres. DD for Bullshit who arrived back at 6.25!!!!!! DDs for returners and new members a plenty. As the sponsor of the running T-Shirts, Seimens Fire Protection, had not sent a representative, Col Bloodknock very kindly offered to take a DD on their behalf. Bolt-1-On in his usual quiet, discrete, unassuming way advised that unfortunately for us, he would not be a Hare for the next eight weeks. Let’s be thankful for small mercies.

 The Master of Music this week was Crusty Nuts who was faced with a very mixed circle and selected the cleanest song he could find – "Wild Hasher" to the tune of "Wild River". The Horrors were invited by kindly Uncle Bloodknock to report anyone who talked so that they could be put on ice. Not many went on ice but several got DDs including Stretch whose own son dropped him in it – bang goes Master Stretch’s pocket money for this month! There was a rendition by Col Bloodknock, Tarzan and the GM of TGIF of "Bye-Bye Golkar, Bye-Bye". The Ladies sang a very nice version of the "Harriers’ Song". They had a few problems with their name sign as they could not stick it in – they should have asked a real Hasher.

Anguish got his award for 50 Hares and was uncertain what to do with the pewter Anker bottle despite advice from some in the circle. It was easier once he got the condom removed. TGIF and SEX Hashes sang a sort of cleaned up version of "Irian Jaya". Three of the Bogor Hash sang a Norwegian song and got iced for it. Dingo Thing (ex-Dingo Dick) wanted to put the kids on ice. David Blackburn got two DDs, one for wanking in the circle and one for falling over whilst running. His excuse was the cute ass of the Pussy Hasher in front of him.

 By this time the Horrors had been dragged off to eat and the singing got more adventurous – "Give Me the Good Old Vino". The Hares sang " Pay Me and Go Between" to the tune of "I’m Leaving on a Jet Plane". Before long it was time for "Hats Off and Pots on the Floor".

 The On-On was a superb buffet at the hotel – shame more people did not stay.
