Not for sale!

With the march of commercialisation encroaching on even your favorite hash blog, it is pleasant to record that this week's run will cost you nothing (well, actually it will cost you 60 Baht but with all the zeros which have been appearing in recent posts, 60 Baht really is a snip!) no one will be trying to sell you anything (except beer, and that's a noble cause) and unless Stick Insect decides to turn his hand to the culinary arts, there will be no spam!

Details are:
Songkhla Hash House Harriers' run #1785, Saturday August 29th, 2015, 4:30 p.m.
Hares (at time of writing): Yardstick and R2D2
Misdirections:  From the Kao Seng intersection, take the old Yala road for 16k and turn right before Wat Khun Thong for 2k, then turn left and drive 1.2k along the dirt road to the runsite. From Hatyai get to the the Ban Tha Kam crossroads and head East for about 6.5k to the  big tree  at Ban Sai Kao then go straight ahead for 1.4k and turn right for 1.2k along the dirt road to the runsite.

Sunday's (August 30th, 4:15ish) HH3 run will be set by Sex Sprinter from Sala Hin Kiang which is best approached from the Ban Tha Kam crossroads (old Hatyai road 4.7k, left 6k) from which head East (left if you are coming from Songkhla) for 1.5k then turn right for about 500 meters to the sala opposite the even bigger tree.

Before all that there is a quiz night on Friday (28th August), prior to which there will be a meeting of the Hash Promotion Committee at the Buzz Stop when our strategy for taking over the world will be aired over Guinness and Tortillas. All are welcome to come along and make suggestions to Beavershot, who will be leading our campaign to restore the hash to greatness.  The quiz night will then occur at 8:00 p.m. at the Office Bar when Patrick will be the quiz master. Rumour has it that the Hash team are on something of a roll with 2 successive victories under their belts so do come along and help them to crash and burn which shouldn't be too difficult after all the Guinness and Tortillas!

  1. Hey, at those prices that post wasn't commerce, it's charity!

    And just to clarify, I volunteered to write the hash ad, not lead the whole campaign (which will no doubt include beer, coyotes, and other high-profile attractions). I'm still recovering from the trauma of being organizer for the Angkor run.

  2. Details details! Incidentally it looks as if coyotes may be an attraction of the past as new austere Songkhla appears to be bereft of such decadence. Not sure what else to offer to our guests from PMH3, the boyotes?

  3. I'd join these scintillating (but not titillating) conversations but I can't prove I'm not a spam bot

  4. I think by this point we'll accept even spambots.
