1137: Ankle Breaker

Gump and myself took the hash to a location which was new to most hashers out by the new hospital. Instead of heading towards Zikreet and back past the hospital we decided to take a more interesting route along the service road parallell to the highway and through the tunnel under it.

Here are some words of wisdom about the run by Coach...

We eventually arrived at the Hash site after negotiating our way parallel to the new road and then through a culvert up into the Jebels beside the new Hospital.
The Hot to trot and Gump combination didn't let us down.Their last Hash for some weeks as the pair of them are learning to Wind surf.Anyway we have come to expect a long run from the pair of them and boy were we not disappointed. The trails were twisty, turny , up and down Jebels and lengthy. The softer option trail in black was followed by our younger Hashers and some of our elder ones. The runners amongst the lot of us actually enjoyed it. Masochists! If the Hospital had been open we would have had one of our Hashers ( Mark ) make a quick call in. He tripped over his own feet on Trail number one and cut his knee. Shame ! His Missus was there to offer some comfort, but being the macho type he just wiped the blood off and got on with it. What a hero.
The On In was found by Coach again, that's 2 weeks on the trot and was hidden in between both trails ,the Black and the Blue. By the time we all got back in there were a few mutters of "shoot the pair of them " for the length of the run and others singing the Hares praises.You just can't win when you're the Hare. Comments were given by Miss Disgrace and she was more than lenient and the Spy was Jaws ( Vengeful sod ) He bucketed Morangie, Gump and Hot to trot just for spite.
With the wind starting to blow and the temp dropping, the winter Jackets came out to warm the girls up and Glen. We were all invited back to Gumps House cooling party, for some more amber nectar, shots of Honey brandy and some chicken. What an end to a good day. On On.

Coach has kindly agreed to do the blogging for the next 5 weeks as I will be away.

New T-Shirts should be arriving during the week so bring some extra cash next Sunday.

On On
