A virgin pairing of Sleeps on it and her new husband set the run out close to Doi Saket village. Getting to the site was well marked and there was clearly no sign indicating you should turn right at the traffic lights in Doi Saket – unfortunately half the hashers proved their general incompetence and promptly got lost – not a good start!

The run site was a pagoda on a peninsula in the middle of a lake – nice run site! The hare brief was brief, but indicated that the wind may have blown away the trail and something about not going through someones property even though they had agreed for us to go through their gardens…  Apparently the lady in question had very large breasts, which accounted for one of Skid Mark’s falls and apparently explained why Kwazi Moto was late getting back to the circle.

The run had a lot of shiggy, scrambling along ‘trails’ across the side of a hill for a long way before we could hit the flats.  But then they found a trail that was protected by a strange lady telling us not to go that way. It turned out the paper was there, and ‘John’ the co-hare had hacked his own way through the jungle to create a ‘trail’ especially for us. Who really cares about the stickers and crap that ripped our legs to pieces?

The highlight (for the hares) was the On-In placed about 200m from the pagoda, on the wrong side of the lake. Most hashers were forced to run about 3km further to get around the lake, while only Byte My Yahoo was clever enough to just swim across to the waiting beers. It was good to have SuckIt back to run the circle – at least some semblance of organisation! On the whole a well laid trail with plenty of tricks that kept a big group together even to the end.
