It’s Songkran! The hashes of Chiang Mai collaborated for the CSH3 to set the Songkran run and a large group descended onto the Hash Pub before the start of the run. With extra visitors, the hares would have to run ahead to procure more beer – ah well! At the appointed hour we set off along the usual route past the Imperial Mae Ping Hotel.

Past the entrance to CEC and we were already drenched, with Graven joining me as we ducked into the back alleys – he had a thirst on! But at the next circle, I lucked out and found the right way onto Thapae Road and to Interbar for the first round of beers.
Back out onto the streets, but from here it was easy – off to Euro Diner for a beer (or 2), around to Next Place for a beer (or 3) and finally back along Loi Kroh to the carpark outside Poo’s place for the circle. Not the easiest circle, with noisy music blaring all around, and a group of saturated and drunken idiots around, so we kept it short, or rather we tried to keep it short…
