Butt & Doggy Style

We all gathered at the RV on the outskirts of Ortakent, a good
amount of winter warrior hashers all ready to shed the extra pounds of
Christmas and New Year, well some of us were for sure, me being one of the
them.
The GM called the circle at 2pm sharp, first called in for a
down down were the FRB’s from the last treasure hunt hash, Whilst you’re down
there and Tits, apparently they had stopped for a bathroom break and actually
ran to catch the pack up, this is almost unheard of. The honor award was
presented to Muffin Muncher as she had very cleverly spotted a baby seal
swimming in the sea on the previous hash, well done Muffin Muncher. The hares
Butt Butt and Doggy Style were then called into the circle to explain and tell
the usual bull about the trail. Flat, short etc etc... Orders were taken for
the ononon and then we were off.
The trail was a long one, the hares informed us it had taken
them 5 hours to set the trail and that they had used something like 20kg of
flour, slight exaggeration but a lot! I think there were about 8 runners and 8
walkers, the runners were soon quite a way out front and so were both hares, a
panicked phone call from the walkers asking which way to go and one of the
hares waited for them to catch up. The trail was lovely, lots of greenery and
lanes and of course a fab view of the Aegean. We actually went along the beach
for part of the trail which again was great, I really love hashing at this time
of year, no tourists about just plenty of open space, winter sun and fresh air,
it makes you realise how lucky we are to be living in such a beautiful part of
the world. I think it was nigh on 2 hours later, we all arrived back at the RV,
it was a long hash and certainly blew the cob webs away but our RA did us proud
and kept the weather at a very pleasant temperature so it didn’t actually seem
as long as it was, although one of the hashers (GM) did the runners route and I
think maybe 2 km of the walkers route! The circle was once again called
and the GM invited in the returnees, it was great to see all of the returnees
but especially good to see our daddy of the hash Culture Vulture who had been
absent without leave for quite some time. Our one and only virgin Karen was
then invited in, she’s so shy I didn’t think she would have gone in the circle
but she bounced in like a little gazelle.
The RA then started his stint with a joke, well he started the
joke but forgot the middle and end but it all added to the fun. Down downs were
given for all the usual misdemeanours, teapot, misnaming, goody goody etc...
Then a couple of the hashers got in and told a joke, Muffin Muncher, Fishy
Fingers and Karen our virgin so well done you ladies.
Time was getting on now so the circle was called to a close and
the majority of us headed off to Viras in Ortakent for a well deserved munch.
Great hash for the New Year ladies and fabulous ononon.
