It was an ideal weather for hashing. A cool evening. What I knew was many sectors of J.B.
were experiencing light to heavy downpour. The two hares were evidently not around to welcome us which houldn't be the case as they were definitely not involved in the laying of the trail. The ritualistic ball game was played at the entrance to the university by the road, presenting a clear danger to both players and motorists when the ball crossed over to the road divider. Don't they have a teeny weeny bit of cow sense?
Oh I forgot. Hashers are of low I Q.! A good crowd, considering those who did not turn up at last week's run at Pontian Rd made sure they would not miss this week's do.

The in-trail was the usual route leading into the mosquito-infested rubber trees. Many turned back at the fringe of the dark forest for fear of unwantingly 'donating' pints of blood
to those tiny predators. It was a long run by any standard, as attested to by GM Ice Cream
who voiced aloud the unnecessary need for this lengthy trail. What is to come of such unreasonably long run? To prove what? Perhaps to satiate the desire of those few who relish long runs.

Nyonya, being a Melaka baba provided excellent nyonya fare back at the wagon. It was everything and all thing nyonya. James Tay, a baba himself went into a litany of the various famous nyonya kueh. Kueh this and kueh that!

Half an hour into the circle a few who checked in from the run late were seen showering and then powdering their sterilised anatomies. The two hares Nyonya and Gou Siong were chastised for bribery, offering monetary incentives to Flintstone and a few others to lay the trail. The amount was clearly insufficient for a feast of chilli-crab, abalone, bak kut teh and beer for a party of four or five. Er, pardon me! Did I get all this right? Ha! LSB, Postie, Kim Chee, Big Potato and Lansi were some of those iced for the flimsiest of reasons. The two bulls, Bulldog and Bulldozer were honoured on the ice throne for going to be proud grand dads within a year. Congrats to both Ah Kong ( GRAND PA ).

Foo Tou restaurant came alive with the invasion of rowdy hashers occupying seven tables. It's FOC for the food and beer - very delicious and very intoxicating. Banyak kamsiah to Nyonya and Gou Siong, and of course not forgetting those nyonya kueh. Meet you all at our run at Ulu Tiram next week. Must come okay? New run-site. On ! On !
