On a sad note:

Long term hasher Kevin (“Yorrick”,”Kahunt’’) Hunt was killed by a hit and run drunk driver last September.  Not only was he drunk he failed to render assistance and left the scene of the accident.  The recent Supreme Court case saw the offender given a four and a half year gaol sentence which is suspended after twelve months.  On the same day a person who committed four robberies to feed a drug habit got two and a half years with no mention of suspended sentence.  Who said the law is an ass.

 

Run 1762… The Run:

The pack mustered at Upstream Petroleum for the start of an A to B then B to C then C to D and finally D to E run.  We were told there was a piss stop.

 

First leg was to the awaiting bus.  Not our usual one but an upmarket version.  Dog runners were worried that the quality of the bus may have prevented their canine partners from enjoying the run.  Not so, they and their dogs were allowed.

 

Second leg was a bus trip to bush area near Robertson Barracks.

 

Third leg was off into the bush.  For those who do not know we ran past the place where a person hanged themselves several years ago.  The run was interesting and do show some form of hash knowledge.  The hares declined to use the abundant swamp areas but that could have been due to the high standard of the bus.  On this leg the General was seen and heard blowing the hash horn.  Has he volunteered to replace Fatboy?? Several runner became concerned due to the on set of darkness.  They should not have worried as people like Saint Physio would have helped to guide them out of danger.  At the end of the run was the waiting bus and trailer.  There was o choice of stuffed keg beer or cans.  It was noted that one of the hares stayed at the back of the pack to guide the slower people to the piss stop.  Although this is a commonsense approach as the hares would not have liked to go searching for any lost stragglers, it does not earn them any extra credits.

 

Final leg was the bus trip back to Upstream.  (Did you notice the police car pass us at the traffic lights?  It turned down the road we had just come from.  Wonder if it was responding to a complaint about people running on Crown land.) Score 3/10 (higher score due to quality of bus)

 

AT THE TRAILER

GM explained to all the decision by the committee to go from keg beer to packaged beer.  He was rudely interrupted by cucumber asking ‘Why don’t we have stubbies”. This effort by cucumber earned him a down down and the chook.  A beer list has handed round and persons were asked to nominated their 1st and 2nd preference beers.

 

As of next week, $5 per run and pay for your beer as you go.

Prices:

Heavy Beer                $2 per can/stubbie

Light Beer                  $1.50 per can/stubbie

Mixed drinks             $2.50 per can

Champers at cost price.

 

Little dog, for this occasion was called motormouth, got a down down for interrupting the GM.

 

Any special runs will be pay up front.  Over previous years the committee’s have catered for 60-70 runners and 40 turn up.  Therefore it is pay before the event and if you do turn up and have not paid, you will pay extra.

Other Matters;

 

Interhash:

All those who have paid Physio their deposit for their accommodation at Interhash are required to pay the remaining $70 to Physio. 

Mash spoke of a trip to Vietnam after Interhash.  See him if your interested.  Mash also proposed a Hash song for Interhash. (See end of hash sheet)

 

Lost Property

Hash has three hash horns.  Who has them?  Contact the GM and let him know where they are.

Hash stickers – who has them??  They can’t be sold if they are not on display.  Whoever has them give them to hash haberdash.

Go Boxes (the portable eskies for the kegs) – hash has two but someone is not telling us where they are.  Whoever has them tell hash booze.

 

Hash History

Dregs is looking for any hash history documents.  If you have anything lying around pass it onto her.

 

Hash Runs:

It does not take four or five people to set a run.   In most cases two people set a run.  For those who say I have set a run, and there were four or five people setting the run, you are being inconsiderate to others.  If you have not recently set a run, then set one.  This is your hash and if you want it to continue then put your hand up and do your share of setting runs.

 

Complaints:

Use of the ‘C’ word.  Would you use the word in front of your children or your mother?? No??  Then think about the people who live near where the circle is being held.  (I do accept that in some cases some people never had a mother so they would not understand what it means.)

We have not been harassed by police but, if we continue to use the “C” word, we soon will and once that occurs you could probably see a breathalyzer nearby.

 

Words to Mash’s Interhash song: (Sung to the Carlton football song)

We are from Darwin Hash

Top end of Australia,

We’re from Darwin Hash

In any weather you will see us on a run

Always having fun

When we get home the beer will flow

And the down downs will begin

Yes we’re from Darwin Hash

We never quit until the final keg has blown

Like the hashers of old

We are loud and we’re bold

Cause we’re from Darwin

Show us your tits

Yes we’re from Darwin Hash
