Run 922 -Near Ojen
Mon 29th May
Hares- Shagadelic and Tight-Arse
Well I’m going to make sure that I’m not last again, not only do you have to wear that moth-eaten sweaty hat during the run but you’ve got to do the write-up as well!
About 20+ hashers arrived at the run site just off the Ojen Rd and promptly at 7:22pm we were off with Shagadelic’s plea to find her mobile phone ringing in our ears. The first 5 minutes of the run were spent, not looking for the trail but looking for the phone.
Hash Cash spotted it and retrieved it so then we could resume searching for flour and paper and follow the trail. The start went up to the pylon before heading down through prickles and all sorts of undergrowth before emerging onto a road. The 2 way split had half the pack going up and the rest going down.
Much better to go down so off we went left down the road before hitting the CB4 and turning us front runners round to retrace our steps to a path up on the right. This trail went round the hill before heading down a vertical shiggy trail with no hand-holds which eventually hit another road. Here the FRB’s sprinted off like headless chickens, ignoring the river on our right, even though the Hare had said that we would get our feet wet.
So the FRB’s hit the checkback whilst we checked the river to find the trail. Up the river we scrambled over and under branches, across slippery rocks before running out of trail.
Flakey decided to test the waterproofness of the mobile phones whilst the rest of the pack searched for the trail. A false trail up to the right was followed before the trail was found upto the left. After all the downhill it had to go up sometime which it did, up and up before ending up on a contour path.
Another CB4 then took us back and up to the welcome beer stop. We were eaten alive by the flies as we waited for the tailenders and then it was back up the road to the run site.
The GM being AWOL, Stiffanny took charge only to relinquish control and hand-over to a Surrogate GM, Willy Wankers Willy Warmer who then gave out the following Down Downs :- Shaggadelic and Tight-Arse – Hares with a mark of 8.5 for a good run, despite the prickles Visitors – Anne and Martin Stiffanny – dereliction of duty XGMs – El Pulpo, Stiffanny and Limp Toed Sloth Kindergarten Cop – Mugless
Chaos then returned to the circle with the arrival of RAness, Flakey, who competed with a family of goats and passing traffic, to suitably absolve the hashers sins :- Shagadelic – losing mobile phone Tightarse – assuring Flakey that the water would be no problem HMV – something about a drummer Willy Wanker and WW’s Willy Warmer, Knock out Neptune – Sole conversation is about Septic Tanks Shagadelic – Noise Pollution, ringing that lost mobile phone Swiss Roll – wearing a jumper as a pair of trousers!
The circle ended and it was ON ON to the Venta for another good evening.
