"De bus ain’t goin’ no-whey’…yuh might as well drink"

What enlightened words from the lips of a former HM.

Passing fact that everybody was probably in this situation ’cause de bus reach late in de fus’ place..but we’ll forget these little things. So let’s see….a call to the bus at the proposed start time of the run placed said occupants somewhere between Sangre Grande and the run site. Fast forward to post run, conducting our semi-menstrua activities: …..

“ Oh dear! Some one missing…. not that I had noticed or anyone apart from Christine! Especially a certain sweeper hare.

Turns out we need a 4X4 so never to turn down adventure and activity…. off we set Gerry, Doon et. al..  Looking for lost hashers is always an adventure but this time after an easy start, we come to a river crossing of two concrete lamp posts a side for the wheels to pass on. Doon got out to ensure I kept the wheels on the "bridge".  Then the going got tough 20 – 30 minutes of serious 4 wheel road, mud up to the doors at times. Kudos to Toyota…. with smooth tires we never got stuck!

Funny thing …. we were expecting three lost souls, Randall, Pinny and Reina here there were four lost souls (  never get to heaven….). Uncle Ray hadn’t been missed as his turn to buy a round hadn’t come up yet.  On the return at one deep pit of mud, took a detour through the trees with Doon again walking ahead to guide the way. Back across the bridge with edges of the tires hanging over and back for Down downs to begin.

Life as it’s meant to be! ”

Rewind to the start…De hares just finishing lunch at the pre-proposed run site…I now arriving….hmmm…shoulda know we in fuh it today! “So this ain’t de run site?…Two people done find a park next to we arready. “Nah is dong de road”. But I thinking…”here nice arready!”…Whey we goin’ again’?” 2 km dong de road, and half de road in heaven, half in hell! Wuh jail!… De hares say “leave yuh cyar here!! Walk de ress.” The adventurous make it past…but ‘de ress’ find ah park. Ah know the maxi ain’t passin’ here!

Okay, so it was worth it to go the extra distance. The run site sought to replace ‘idyllic’ in the dictionary. Virgin territory de fella did say. A damn good attempt! A murky, Atlantic bay…sustaining no activity…at least not while we were there. A lovely view. But how we gettin’ de beers dong here now?

Two villagers – a few hares…kept a tight control of things on the run. Excellent terrain – extremely varied by turf – well managed – plenty mud & picka – rigorously undulating – south of 1 & ½ hrs…just what the hash needed!

Throw in a historic tour to boot!

I get the faint sound of a seance of sort. So please tell me again…”Why de bus ain’t leavin’ ?


Pradeep’s Energy

It was a classic to have 4 experienced hashers getting lost. Uncle Ray was much more quiet than he usually is….and you know what that mean, not a word after they found him as he was also very surprised that he got lost. The comical things was that they all followed Pene’s usual ON ON call that means go the opposite direction but Pene and Rainer seems to dominate as they were the majority, and our goodly old friend and very experienced hasher Randall, well well……he lead the rosary choir and within minutes saw the bright light heading their way. Randall immediately took his T-shirt off as a sign of surrender for the POFTER nominee and so it was well received during the down down as the vast majority of hasher voted him in favour. The hashers left a very positive image with the villagers of north Manzanilla delivering charity to the needy family. This was a well-coordinated effort by Mag and Ivan who took up the task to also deliver a very good run. Looking forward to the continued collective effort, support and comradery of all. ON ON!

Virgins: Jessie, Stephanie, Rosemarie, Gary, Derrick, Simon, Annalisa, Denise
