1111 Stick Insects

Another milestone will be reached in the career of our illustrious leading active runner on Saturday when he reaches his one thousand and eleventy first run. To celebrate, there will be a special Stick Insect run, and dinner to follow at Tung Jaeng. Named SH3 runners at the runsite will also be eligible to receive a souvenir of this glittering occasion, which will be available in green, brown or shades of grey and will need to be fed on juicy leaves from the Bong-Bong tree. Contributions of food beyond snacks that can be consumed with fingers are probably not necessary, but donations of beer are always welcome, although if possible these should be purchased at Tung Jaeng to support the good people who so generously host these events, particularly if we are minded to ask them to look after our birthday run again in a couple of months' time.
Details are:
Songkhla Hash House Harriers run #1733, Saturday August 30th, 4:30 p.m.
Hare: Stick Insect
Misdirections: From the Ko Yo intersection take the new Yala road for about 7.2k and look for a sign directing you to park on the unused section of the right-hand carriageway of the road just after the top of the hill. (Dog-owners note that the run will involve crossing the road at the beginning and end of the run although this can be avoided by parking in the old wood yard on the left hand side of the road which can be accessed directly from the new Yala road with great care.)

Sunday's (31st August) HH3 run is a bye-bye Beaver affair, as the amiable rodent is off on his travels again next week. Misdirections from Songkhla are: From the Ko Yo intersection take the old Hatyai road for 4.6k and turn left for 8k then right for 7.5k (at Wat Khao Kloi down Th. Punnakan). Turn left into Th. Baan Nai Rai and go 1.3k then look for the runsite on the left under the power lines. Hare: Sex Focus.

Finally, there is a quiz night this Friday (29th August) at the Office Bar at 8:00 p.m. when the Hash team will attempt to salvage its pride after last months annihilation at the hands of the evil bald people formerly know as the teachers. The quiz master is Big Alex who sets a mean quiz, and everyone is welcome, particularly if they are female as it would be really, really, really nice to dissipate the air of male domination which tends to pervade these events!
