Our newest centenarian

I'm sure there's a better shot of FPM around here somewhere but for the moment this snap from yesterday will have to do.
In his haste to libel a respected senior hasher*, my worthy co-correspondent Yardstick failed to note in his post below the main significance of yesterday's excellent outing: it was the 100th SH3 run by Flowerpot Man. Due to his busy social schedule around S.E. Asia, to say nothing of his gardening duties back in Blighty, it's taken FPM over a decade to reach this milestone, and all he gets is a lousy t-shirt. In fact, this being Songkhla Hash, he didn't even get that, though it may eventually appear. Anyhow, congrats and on-on!

*Let it simply be noted that said senior hasher did not "[fail] to break the first check" after the beer stop; indeed he did not even attempt to break that check, instead heading directly back to the beer truck and the pleasant walk down the road to the runsite, a full can of cold beer in hand. If there's anyone who lost the plot here it wasn't me, I mean him, but you maniacs who were still flailing away in the jungle.

  1. His lame defence is even more damning. Even the font size is an indication of his lack of conviction. But his ploy may have worked, he was almost an FRB at HH3.

  2. "Almost", that's very gracious of you, Yardo. I won't even mention your own extreme shortcutting yesterday and that Hollywood finish of yours. Or the day's super-wimp, L*** of the L***, who joined the children and lapdogs on the short run.
