This is one of those runs, where we wake up on a nice Sunday morning,
journey through the quaint lanes of the historical Versova fishing
village , to take a crowded ferry across the black waters of the Versova creek,
thats no where close to the back waters of kerela, and smell a little better
than the Mahim creek, but worst than the raised armpits in a Churchgate – Virar
fast!
But once you get onto
the other side, the fresh air, which at times with the incoming breeze smells
of dry fish, and the green country side, is completely worth the boat ride. And
surprising many a new comers of such a green patch, so close to the city
limits. It takes you from city to village, in 5 minutes flat!
Ok, enough of Bombay
‘darshan’..lets get on with the run. Baby Doll, Assman,
Yamit ...The laziest bunch
of Hares we ever seen. When told to explain the days run... they say...you go down the road, take a
U-turn, and come back! And the runners can keep running till they fall dead, and then take a U
turn! What the hell! How lazy are these guys! Probably Baby Doll
kept up to the name sake reputation, and kept the other two Hares ‘Entertained’
;-), instead of marking a good winding run through streets and beaches. Anyways, with the intervention of
some other Hashers, the run was
finally re-routed. The weather was great, and the run enjoyed by all.
Had a lot of new
faces, as well as old faces that had resurfaced. One of the virgins, Just
Vidya, was misguided, and told to wear new shoes! Haha! Well youll know the
routine... on the ice, and drink beer from the right shoe. Wait..is it the left
shoe? Oh ..after a few beers , it doesn’t matter anyways. But our enthu little
Vidya, was depressed, as she said her other shoe was ‘crying’ for the beer too!
And then we had (harsh) who insisted on putting his mom on the ice, coz she
refused to ‘feed’ him beer!
Ah yes this
newbee wanted to know how much we ‘paid’ for the venue for that day. Pay? We
hashers? Oh let us clarify... all our venues have been the courtesy and
generosity of Hashers, friends and family of hashers, friends and family of the
friends and family of the Hashers too! So incase you know anyone, who owns a
outhouse, or a farm, anything outside Bombay, or on the outskirts of Bombay,
and is willing to play host to a mad bunch of hashers, only one Sunday of the
month, then do let us know!
