Run:- 1212. Date:- 12 June 2006.
Location:- Ban Suan Thong restrant, Ratchpreuk Road
Hare:- Wichanee
Scribe:- ???The usual band of miscreants gathered at the Ban Suan Thong restaurant for Wichanee’s run. Except Phoney Sex who was still lost somewhere in Bang Kruay. Frantic phone conversations with Noriega and Maew did nothing to alleviate this.
“My paper has one strand of yellow per handful unlike the other types of paper you will find from BH3 or SH3 so up to the first two checks don’t follow the wrong paper” advised Wichanee. Yeah right!!
So off went the pack, minus Phoney, headed by Bruce the Other (Bumbo). There was confusion in the first 200m “Does this paper have yellow in it”?
Off into the orchards and out onto a road to the first check. More on roads later, well actually a lot more on roads later. OK most of the run was on roads …
“Is this weeks paper? I don’t see any yellow”
“Screw the paper let’s do the Mans Run” suggested Joost.
Rumors abound that someone urinated on the paper to make it yellow. But I digress..There was some confusion at check three when half the pack follow the On On call out to yet another road only to find the trail going back into the orchard. About 200m into the orchard the front-runners were observed milling around away to the left. “Fek we’re running this backwards” suggested Bumbo. Back to the road, duh!
At this point in the run Christy/Crispy/My Name Is Frisky (Get it. Got it) recently back from Jakarta was holding an impromptu coffee morning amble with Lion King. Hags was observed giving Love Canal the cold shoulder so as not to strike up a conversation and fall into the undergrowth yet again. “Stay away from me you, you, you .. .Agent Orange who was obviously exhausted from celebrating his installation as the new BH3 GM was trailing the coffee morning trying to inject barbs of wit into the conversation.
Yours truly didn’t see much more of the action as I also got embroiled in the coffee morning whilst sauntering along yet another road. Oh wait a minute who is?……Isn’t that Normal running the wrong way? It was. The GM 4x2, (2x4 for those of you from North America) BTW those of you from North America may not be familiar with the phrase “As thick as a short plank” but yet again I digress. 4x2 was out for an evening stroll with IT. “Are we the last”? No Spinning Dwarf is behind us. “Ha, Ha, tried another short cut did he”?
At this point LK and Frisky decided to run the last 50m back to the A site. “Fek, there is Spinning Dwarf’ exclaimed 4x2. “How did he get here”?
A good run for the runners.
Down Downs included Joylide for trying to seduce the Interhash Trail Master in Chiang Mai and getting Bumbo and Canal Rapee so pissed that they didn’t even find an A site for the Harriette’s Run. Oh well another drunken road trip in the future?
DD to Agent Orange the new BH3 GM. DD to the Dutch for throat clearing in the circle. DD to Bimbo for a sock fashion faux pas
DD to the English. Something to do with the World Cup.
POW to Phoney Sex, who turned up late, ate at the restaurant and tried to leave.
“Hey who is the cute Russian chick with Phoney”? Aah that would explain Noriega’s unusual concern about Phoney’s whereabouts.The grub was the usual Hash fare, the mandatory omelets etc.. 4x2 presented Tastes Great and another ‘marican with some “God Bless America”/”Support Our Troops” fridge magnets he found somewhere in the USA. Eventually the homeless ones consumed all the cold beer and the post meal party was with Heineken Ice watched by the long-suffering restaurant patron. That’s about all I can remember.
