Run  996 Sunday  30th September  2007  - El Coto 

 Hares: Streakys Marks 8 

Approximately 47 hashers and harriets arrived, fairly promptly at 1700 hrs, for the 996th run up above El Coto set by Streak of Piss and Streaky. 

Flakey welcomed everyone into the circle including 2 virgins, courtesy of the Stiffs, and three visitors: Vomit from Hong Kong, New Zealand et al, and Blitzcreek (phoenetic spelling) and Hole in One from Western Africa.  It was a particularly warm Oct evening and the sun shone brightly as we set off down a very well marked trail after a slightly delayed start with some hashers running down a road and others into the campo.  There were no false trails but some cobwebby tunnels plus check back tunnel.  The pack became fairly strung out but, being for the most part at the end, I cannot comment much on the run apart from knowing the last four tail end charlies, including me, found themselves in the middle of the pack at one point. There were some slippery scrambles for the less agile and a  wondrous scree slope running alongside the toll road which proved challenging for the visitors, Spermaid and the scribe who managed to slip and roll a fair distance.  Spittoon was up the rear and must have achieved some wonderful views on the pushes and pulls, especially under the limbo dancing fence.  

 The Circle 

The run was, apparently, according to some, the best of the year and scored 8 so I am glad I wasn´t on the others. Spittoon proffered a -5 but was a great sweeper.  Apparently there was chocolate swiss roll at the beer stop which proved a bonus, along with fresh oranges and crisps. 

Anniversarios awarded to:Jane 5 runs Fender Bender 20 runs Gobble Gobble 20 runs Ginger Minge 35 runs

Mindy 50 Runs Mork 50 runs Stitched Up 80 runs Swiss Roll 125 runs Mummy´s Boy 165 runs Dipper 475 runs

 Dipper awarded various downs downs for misdemeanours including the misappropriation of a box of tampons, the loss of two pairs of underpants (one sheepishly being claimed by Jerry Can) short cutting bastards and talking in the circle.

The sleeve was used on two occasions: once, very successfully, by Kindergarten Cop who had been caught nonchalantly gazing into the distance whilst leaning on a car peeing, without asking permission to leave the circle.  Lilo Lil and Karma Chameleon had to hold down the unfortunates who had to drink from Dipper´s cock.

 Tattooed hashers were invited into the circle. Lilo Lil did not present herself and suffered as a consequence and was not prepared to show us where the tattoo actually was. 

The Hash Summer Ball organisers were praised after a very successful evening last Friday.  A grand total of Euros 3,285 was raised for childrens´ charities during the evening.

 The successfully and lively circle was closed at 2030 when most of the beer had been suitably despatched
