Run 1237

Hare: Ceweed

First In: Master Marcus Baker

Comments: Dorothy

Spy: Ben-Jammin'

Location: 12 km due South of Dukhan. 25.325427,50.777339

Running: Rock, soft sand and Jebels.

Weather: Getting colder

Another pleasant run from that nice Mr Ceweed, with a good mixture of terrain and a much flatter course than last week. Indeed the only complaint from Mr Dorothy was that the On-In was slightly too easy to find! Another storming performance from young Master Baker, who pipped his own dad to the post by a hairs breadth. The run was topped off with a first, probably for any hash, when young Mr Jammin' forgot that he was meant to be spy, which resulted in another first of the spy being bucketed along with the usual crowd of victims.

Little Miss Sophie Roberts was named Little Dipper, but as she is only nine months he dad, Mr Mongrel kindly stepped in to undertake her down-down. Selfless Man that one.

Anyway, plans are afoot for Hashmas which will be on the 12th December and will be fancy dress for the kids. Better get the elf costume dusted off for that one!

On-on!

Run Number 1236

Hare: Hot-to-Trot
First In: Master Marcus Baker
Comments: Pegasus
Spy: Methusalah
Location: 7 km due of Dukhan. 25.379063,50.76367
Running: Tracks, soft sand and Jebels.
Weather: Nicely warm

A typical Hot-to-Trot trial combining distance with treacherous climbs.  The on-in was especially tricky, being on top of a rather larger jebel near to where the cars were parked.  Mr H2T deservedly got bucketed for that one.  Aside from that, a delightful run combining highs and lows, soft sand and hard rock, gullys and ridges.  Once he gets over putting the On-In in daft places the genius of H2T could really show through.

On on!
