P2H3 Run #864 – Flaccido Domingo Nears Haring Nirvana!

Run Date: 29/06/2008

Hares: Flaccido Domingo, Piglet (walk)

Run Report: Rubbed Raw

I think it is fair to say that some of Flaccido’s previous haring attempts have been shall we say, less than average, but today was living proof that practise can make perfect.  On a rain threatened Sunday, the Phnom Penh Hash witnessed near Nirvana reaching perfection in haring (on a relative scale of course!)!  P2H3’s Nigerian exile could hardly put a foot wrong this day, despite being rudely let down by his virgin Co-Hare Nora, calling off sick on the Saturday morning, with the dubious excuse of drinking  too excessively the night before with Slovenians (or was that Slovakians?)  She didn’t even turn up to the run, such was her shame!

Now Hash Trash, as regular readers would be aware, feels revulsion at heaping any praise on a week’s haring effort.  This weekend HT was looking forward to a good bout of sarcasm for the often erratic marking of Flaccido based on his past performances.  But as the run started, and continued in an area south of the Tiger Brewery, the disappointment mounted for the HT scribe.  The trail was just too well marked to able to attract the usual HT scorn and criticism!  Bar the odd missing false trail cross (which haring on his own he can be forgiven) and the excessive amount of cows (not something he could have foreseen) it was clear that Flaccido had brought more than one tin of paint, and was not afraid to use it!!

The trail took an interesting route of well worn paths, through pig sty’s, over landfills, across barbed wire fences, and finally over picturesque bridges, it was indeed a pretty and shady run of good length and interest.  The pack this week lacking many of its FRB’s, meant that Horny Cow often led the pack and many a virgin had to step up to the FRB mark.  Blitzkrieg teleported himself around the trail as ever, and even the tracksuit clad Flying Finn picked up a turn of speed on occasion, when the omnipresent herd’s of cows would let him!

At the finish the walk and run nearly arrived in unison, despite virtually all the runners foolishly turning the wrong way on the last check right beside the pagoda, everyone made it back relatively unscarred, and cheering a great run/walk!  The circle was formed, with Rubbed Raw acting GM, and Love Bite acting RA, and everyone else just acting as if they were interested, as the pair babbled their random musings in the centre!  Many virgins were again welcomed, some foreign spies from Sydney and Cambridge, graced us, and even Sarsy bothered to return this week!  The Hare was congratulated for a great run, and the RA had to ’save the sole’ of the aforementioned shoe-stricken Finn (told you he was running fast!).  Notable anniversaroids at 160 runs were Blitzkrieg and someone else (please help Hash Stats!)

The On On On, was also not to disappoint in Flaccido’s sterling haring performance for the day!  Arrangements with Huxley’s ‘Brave New World’ had been made, and over 25 stinky hashers made it to one of the most civilised venues the hash has ever witnessed!  Great food, and good service and Flaccido’s never ending attention to the Hash’s well being made for a great end to the day.  Flaccido was even serenaded “He’s the meanest, He sucks the horses…”, such was the level of ecstasy the Hash crowd had reached, and he even received an encore!  Will the Flaccid one ever reach such dizzy heights again one wonders?!  Ah Nora, all this praise could have been your’s to revel in too…had you bothered to turn up! Those damn Slovakian’s!

HT will now head straight for the nearest WC, so nauseous is he after writing so much praise in one report!  A worthy Outstanding Haring category HT is sickened to award! Future hares take notes!

On On!
