Full Moon ramblings

Here, only slightly out if sequence, is last week's Full Moon H3 run which was laid amid a rumbling multi-faceted and entirely avoidable (just do what you're told Albert - you know it makes sense!) dispute between Moo Saab and Leum Kee which resulted in the paper being rather sporadic. Towards the end of the run that proved to be too much for the directionally challenged who within sniffing distance of the beer truck, went off in search of shreddy and spent 10 minutes or so trying to get their bearings before being brought home by some inspired hand-light waving and shouting. A shame, because the run was otherwise highly enjoyable, as was the apres run session which went on until at least 11 o'clock. Length was about 5.7k without the F's, and the maximum height was 72 meters with a total ascent of about 100 meters.
Present throughout, although not actually partaking of the run, were Sunday's HH3 hares, Sex Star and Sexy Girl, who were clearly very upset by the reports of a flat trail in open country for the most part of which the pack were able to run. The result of their misgivings about this dangerous trend in southern Thai hashing, where people are actually allowed to enjoy their runs, was a miserable 80 minutes above Hatyai Park yesterday, when any suggestion of a trail was promptly strangled and the pack were repeatedly sent off into impenetrable shiggy often on slopes steep enough to justify the use of hills as a means of stretching runs, before being dumped onto the road and left to run the last kilometer or so on tarmac. The net result was that the  those who had been lucky enough to do Saturday's SH3 run (illustration awaited) found that its quality had increased to stellar levels by 5:30 yesterday evening!
So it's on-on to this week's birthday run, of which more shortly.

  1. Has any good ever come of a run from Hatyai Park? (Come to think of it, just once: Egghead went off paper, got lost on top of the hill, and achieved enlightenment.)
