RLC Harriers Run 867, 26 May 2015

Hares : Alice and Uncle Yap

Runsite : Gasing Car Park

Weather : Dry before and during the run but started to drizzle at the

Circle

Promptly at 6.00 pm, GrandMaster Woon pressed his roti horn and we all

ran right towards the entrance to the Nature Park. The trail just went

up, up, up until we reached the top and then we came down. David Wee,

one of the hired hares (the other was his wife, Mighty Mouse) a very

sadistic person who did not like to see people with dry shoes when wet

would do. He made us walk along the stream before going up another

hill. At the top, there was a check, but of course, the route had to

go downhill where we met some workers doing some construction work.

This was where there was a clear sign SHORT <--- nbsp=""> LONG

The heroes went right and climbed another hill while the sensible

hashers turned left and walked another km or so before emerging at the

Playground. From there, it was plain sailing walking to the carpark.

Heroes for the day were Steven Khoo and Lim Boon Hiong at 55 minutes.

A little while later at 65 minutes, Mike Kuan came running in, pursued

by Stan, the American from Miri who was one of the guests. Soon after

that, people started coming in left, right and centre until the only

person out was Steven Young (spelling error deliberate). Before the

Circle could get underway, SY was back ... a smart hasher who found

his way back even after starting 30 minutes late.

The hashers tucked into the foreplay food including harm-chin-peng,

fish cake, chaw siew yoke, sweet Philippines pineapple and other

goodies. A slight drizzle came on and all the umbrellas went up. That

did not deter us. Silly charges followed ridiculous charges but we all

had fun.

The nasi lemak was fantastic, so fantastic that the food ran out

before Uncle Yap had a chance to eat anything. We ordered for 50 so

felt a little bit short-changed ...  everything finished except for

some kachang/ikan bilis and some sambal (sorry, Boon Pooi and Janet, 

I need the sambal for tomorow's dinner)

The beer ran out and we started on the GlenMorangie. We continued to

drink into the night and a good time was had by all

p/s I have been told that Tarzan and Jane read my account when they

are in bed on a Tuesday night. So, here is a story, hopefully erotic

enough ....

Tarzan and Jane travelled in the jungle by swinging from tree to tree

using the aerial roots and other tree misai. One day, an urgent call

came (probably Cheetah was in trouble) and both rushed to move to come

to his aid. Somehow, Jane slipped (she was eating a juicy fruit and

her hands were wet and slippery) and she held on to a certain part of

Tarzan's anatomy. "oo-oo-oo oo-oo-oo !!!!" the painful cry of Tarzan

reveberated thro the jungle.

So now you know how Tarzan got his famous jungle call

You learn something useful every week from reading Uncle Yap :-)

Run 866 May 19 is in TTDI

RLC Harriers Run 866, 19 May 2015

Hares : Mr & Mrs Ng Lai Chong aka B Koh & B Soh

Runsite : Rumah Bakti, TTDI

Weather : Raining before the run but dry during & afterwards

As we gathered at the site before the run, we could not help noticing

that whoever was the Bomoh, he did a good job to stop the rain. At

6.00pm, Misai (in the absence of Woon Koh, happily engaging with China

Mooi in China - Jenny still thinks he is there for business :-)

sounded the horn and off we went

\We went up the slope and then veered off to the left into a small

patch of jungle. The trail then meandered left, right and centre but

it came perilously close to the Playground. At that point, I wanted to

see the recent developemnt, so I broke off for an inspection and then

ran back to the original runsite. 30 minutes, too short, so I took

another route and had some hill-climbs before returning to open the

beer barrel at 6.55pm

In the meantime, the heroes went all the way up, around and through

all the various paths that the bukit could offer. The horrendous rain

that preceded the run had washed away much of the paper laid. It was

the smart runner in the form of Quiksilver Fox who side-stepped the

red herrings and got home at 62 minutes, followed some ten minutes

later by Wendy, Peter, Arthur and Justine (son#2 of Jim Poh)

Ah B Koh presented everbody with a blue T-shirt and the Circle

celebrated the small bladders of Mike Kuan, Yabayabadoo and Dato

Steven Oon. Uncle Yap then pointed out the most erotic and exotic

lady, Lilian Wee whose clothing accentuated her nipples which got

every red-blooded males looking surreptitiously at her chest.

We then adjourned to Unique Seafood, an upmarket eartery where we were

presented with offerings of good food after good food. 12 year-old

GlenFiddich awaited the thirsty souls. We had a jolly good time and

hated to tear ourselves away.

Next Week's Run : Uncle Yap & Alice @ Gasing Car Park 

... POP, park once policy 

... food from Hassan's children will be served - nasi lemak primarily.

Those who like to savour their whisky from glass containers, please

bring your own glass cups ... ice and whisky will be provided.

RLC Harriers Run 864, 5 May 2015

Hares :  Dato Nik Gee & KCWong aka Chi Mui

Runsite : Lake Garden & its vicinity

Weather : Dry

There was a certain kind of foreboding when Bala was mentioned as

KCWong's sole hired hare ... both of them are not exactly noted for

blasting into new virgin jungle or anything out of the ordinary. 

How true!

GM Woon was having some health issue so JM Misai aka Steven pressed

the roti horn to start the run from the quadrangle. Off we went to the

junction and the trail veered right and then into Lake Garden and out

towards Tun Razak memorial and before we knew it, we were in front of

the National Museum and crossing the road. Then it was a long road run

before we came to the four-road junction. We went on to Jalan

Selangor, Jalan Johor and then Jalan Melaka before turing left into

Jalan Bangsar to go back to the Club via the Museum tunnel.

FROP was Peter Leong at 41 minutes, closely followed by our

indefatigable Mike Kuan. Most were in before the hour. It was a 6.2km

road run, not too interesting and full of motorcar exhaust gases.

The Circle started with some controversy. Mismanagement tried to

impose its views on all regarding the issue of beer. In the end, it

was amicably resolved that henceforth, after the barrel is finished,

the Section will make available chilled canned/bottled beer at a

nominal price, something like RM5 to 7 each (to be decided). 

Note : If Tarzan at VeggieHash could offer 3 cans of beers at RM10,

can we do less?

We all adjourned to Bunga Raya where a feast awaited, together with a

bottle of JW Green Label and a bottle of VSOP. Dato Nik Gee, the hare

in charge of the food also presented each Hasher witha fluffy cake ...

yum yum

So a good time was had by all.

Postscript : This is Uncle Yap's own initiative

I think the Section is currently running at a slight loss ... this is

not good. Please permit me to suggest something.

At each run, I consumed from 4 to 5 beers. At the nominal price of

RM7.50 each, I get value of RM30 to 35. The moderate drinker like say

Lee Seng Chuan aka Buffalo Lee with two drinks will have value of

RM15. Multiply that by 4 runs in a month and he gets at least RM60

whereas he only paid RM20 as subscription. Okay, this is balanced by

non-drinkers like Alice, David Wee and Wendy Lum.

So, may I beseech my fellow beer-drinkers like Allen Tan, Thambi Chai,

Playboy Choo, Shit Stirrer, Quiksilver Fox, Steven Khoo, Burns, etc

etc  to volunteer to pay monthly sub of RM40. If there are 20 of us

each contributing an additional RM20 a month, that will be nearly

RM5000 annually to the Section kitty and then we will not be in

deficit.

PP/S Tonight plus the next two nights, Guinness Anchor Berhad is

having a promotion at Batek Bar. After 9.00pm, Tiger is RM4.00 per

shot and Guinness, RM6.00 per shot. Damn good value for money

Please invite me to have a drink or two with you tomorrow and the day

after :-)
