Run 1342 (Sunday 20th April 2008)

This was the last Sunday run of the winter season 2007-2008.  As customary Farmer and Harley benevolently organised a so called ‘A’ to ‘B’ run with a bus that took us to a clandestine location.

The turned out to be Gartly Moor forest – starting at the ski and cycle trail car park

Drill bit got awarded a 450 cap.  Bruce Almighty got 150 sweat shirt – but he ruined the ceremony by arguing that his 150 was the previous week.  Just like Sergio always does.

And then they were off.  The walkie talkies were provided with a simple but interesting alternative.  The run meandered thru’ Gartley Moor forest, around Wishach Hill.  There were several devious back checks that kept, Hippo, Little Shit and Watsoff at bay.  There was a fine viewpoint from the radio tower on top of the Hill of Corskie at 417 metres above sea level.  There was a sweetie stop that several hashers missed but all were gathered at the beer stop at Malsach Burn. 

At the finish it was astonishing how few hashers failed to realize that the end of the run ‘B’ was actually the same point as ‘A’ - the starting point.   It was suggested that the AGM run should be a B to B run!  Many remarked that this would be a good location for future runs – although a little far out.

Down downs were given to Sharnie (alias Victim) for suggesting helicopters could be used rather than buses.  Harley got one for wearing too much hash gear – including 666 hat, 777 shorts, 550 sweatshirt and 450 bum bag.  Penguin and others got one for having gamy knees.  Rhona got a very special down down for calling Aids Simon during sex!

One Foot got several down downs for an assortment of misdemeanours and got extraordinarily drunk.  Trouser Shredder showed cruel child abuse by throwing all her beer over Christopher (CC).

The On Inn was at the Carriages Inn in Inch where we were joined by Olymprick who arrived by train.  The pub advertised real ale – but there wasn’t any for Hippo – who was determined to get tanked up before cycling back home.

The next run will be number 1343 on Monday 28th April 2008 at 7pm.  The Hare is Megane OnOn: Grid ref no 719 912 – (which is meaningless without the map No. NJ), Nine Stones (it is Stanes not stone) car park near Knockburn Loch.
