This week's SH3 hares, the dynamic duo formerly know as Peter and Gordon, will be doing their best to restore the Hash to some sort of normality this weekend, whatever that is.
Details are:
Songkhla Hash House Harriers run #1717, Saturday May 10, 2014, 4:30 p.m.
Hares: Yardstick and R2D2
Misdirections: From the Ko Yo intersection take the old Hatyai road for 4.7k and turn left for 6k, then left (at Ban Tha Kham) for 4.5k to the run site on the right, almost opposite Sai Kao Resort. (Route-savvy hashers will realise that coming from the old Yala Road via the right-hand 16k turn-off at Wat Khun Thong will bring them to the run site in about 5.5k on the left hand side. But beware, there are likely to be no signs on the eastern route.)

Sunday's HH3 run details are mapped below. The squeamish are advised not to look too carefully at the location until about 2 minutes before they are intending to depart from home, having already made sufficient preparations to make a change of heart unlikely! Hares are the Sex People, Who it has to be said set a pretty fair run last Sunday, given the conditions, in a not dissimilar area. So c'mon, give 'em a chance to surprise you!
Finally, the quiz nite postponed from last week will definitely take place this Friday (May 9th) at the Office Bar at 8:00 p.m. The Hash intelligensia are currently undergoing intensive therapy in an attempt to restore them to the fever pitch they had reached when last week's quiz was cancelled. They need all the support they can get!
On! On!

Sorry guys, it’s back to the old tried and true run format, you know, long runs, lots of checks, lots of false trails, one beer stop (at the end of the run). I read all about the ‘un’organised chaos of last week and decided the hash was having far too much fun, and besides I needed to open the bidding for this year’s summer monster. Over to you Beaver.
ReplyDeleteYour comments were noted Gan Yao, so I’ll try my best to accommodate your requests. Anyone getting lost or misplaced this week, I’ll have to leave you in Gan Yao’s safe hands and guarantee you will be “rescued” before the week is out (next week that is).
Anyone wanting to repeat Egghead’s brave new world of hashing will probably best be advised to take a walk down Srisuda Road instead.
From the editor's desk:
ReplyDeleteThis week's SH3 hares have assured the Scum editorial board that they are taking to heart the suggestions below about how to attract the hordes of counryside-loving runners, currently masquerading as bar-flies who are simply waiting for us to follow the widely accepted definition of Hashing, before overwhelming us with their presence and transforming SH3 into the vibrant social hub that it was when we were all wet behind the ears and prepared to suspend disbelief. They have therefore undertaken to set a run containing a number of checks which will be so difficult as to ensure that the hordes of counryside-loving runners, currently masquerading as bar-flies who are simply waiting for us to follow the widely accepted definition of Hashing etc. will, during the course of the run, become so confused that they stray off paper and end up lost in the jungle, which is of course exactly what they have been waiting to do and what had been preventing them from coming to the Hash for all these years. Further, immediately before the run the hares will submit to being tied to a tree and being gagged to prevent them being tempted to follow the runners to try to ensure that they do not become so confused that they stray off paper and end up lost in the jungle (which is of course exactly what they have been waiting to do and what had been preventing them from coming to the hash for all these years).
The names of volunteers for the rescue party which will depart sometime before the sun sets, just in time to require the cancellation or at least the postponement of the circle will be taken before the run. This will hopefully prevent any possibility of the hordes of counryside-loving runners, currently masquerading as bar-flies etc. from being subjected to being iced which, if they are not aleady pissed off by having been abandoned in the jungle would almost certainly guarantee that they will never talk to us again, let alone give us a second chance!
What happened to the verbose version of the original post Mr Egghead?? After reading it late on Thursday night I was looking forward to reviewing it by the lucidity of the light of dawn - and lo and behold it had been redacted, removed, as though the author was ashamed of it's existence.
ReplyDeleteAnd what's happened to the photos & maps? How are we to find our way to the HH3 Sunday run.
You posted that while I was writing my comments. What underhandedness.
DeleteDo I sense a groundswell of interest in a good old-fashioned proper midsummer monster? I suppose I could provide one, though it would have to be on 14 June rather than the 21st, the actual longest day.
ReplyDeleteWell..... yes, We are due in Ko Samui on the 21st to help them celebrate their 600th run, so the 14th would be good.
