Sundays Hash was a live one. Jaws forgot that he was supposed to set the trail. Something to do with the falling down stuff affecting the grey matter on Saturday morning. Mind you half the camp must have felt the same way as panadol sales went through the roof according to the sales staff at Marmars.
So to the tale of the trails. Being a Live Hash you took your chance picking up a slip of neatly folded paper from the Hash masters hat. Trails 1.2 & 3 were there alongside 2 falsies, 2 comments,the On In and the dreaded spy. There were also a lot of blanks and the kids faces told the truth about getting blanks.
GPS led the first trail and carried it for a reasonable length up a gentle slope to give us all a scenic view overlooking Khatiyah. Rocky threw in a falsie at this point and had a few of the youngsters following him like a modern day Pied piper. Fran took up the real trail 2 and ran the Hash along a Bund wall and onwards and upwards up another jebel. There were a few of the regulars breathing through the lower ends of their anatomy at this point. Sideshow the wee rascal ran the longest false trail 3 ever, with all the Hashers in tow, except Firecracker and Coach who were the hares for real trail 3.They stayed around the check-in for trail 2 smiling as Sideshow called false trail. The Hares called On on and the short trail 3 was on. Miss Disgrace was the On In and was extremely lenient to the runners and called it as she headed back to the cars. The hash has been lucky and has had few accidents while running over the rocky terrain, I think it's 2 in the last ten years Mark Roberts and Roy Hedges spring to mind but yesterday we had number 3. Rocky went head over heels on the run in being tripped up by Sideshow his daughter ! Minor scratches thankfully and no transfusion required.Bubbly had her first aid kit out and the nurses uniform on in a flash while she administered a bit of T.L.C. to Rocky's skint knee.
The first in toast was given by Clouseau, comments were given by Methesulah and Chip stealer and then the dreaded spy stepped up. Clouseau ! Well as soon as he stepped into the circle Coach and Morangie could take the Tee shirts off as they knew they were in for a soaking. No reason needed, Meths was soaked for critiscism and Gump got the bucket because he was in the Kids pool at the Kids Hash party. All the kids were soaked for spilling gallons of water from the pool over Clouseau's shoes at the party and the Hash master had his share of the bucket for slagging the spy off. On On until next weeks trail which is due to be set by Jaws. We will see if Al-Zymer shows up again!
