Just west of Sheffield is a little mark on the map labelled 'Nowhere Else'. This week's Burnie trail isn't there; it's somewhere else.
Somewhere. Urang knows where, because he's the hare (or he will know by at least 4:00pm on Sunday). For now we provide the vague details of somewhere in Wragg Street, Somerset. You're all enterprising people so I know that a little vagueness will not stop you from attending (you'll find some other excuse!).
Bring: Hat Mug Joke Friend $10, raffle change, and extra drinks if you are a p*sshead.

HHH Hash Trash 21 April 2011
Easter - the only time of the year where eating something small and brown that has been left behind by a rabbit is considered normal.
The Easter hare has packed up and is heading to one of Burnie's expanding western suburbs - a little place called Marrawah. The HOFT (actually three HOFTs) will encompass a series of short walks in the Tarkine area — including Trowutta Arch, Lake Chisholm, Beckett Falls, Balfour Track Forest Reserve, Sarah Ann Rocks, Marrawah coastal walks, others as dictated by time and weather.
Friday 22nd HOFT - meet at Macca’s Burnie @ 10 am.
Saturday 23rd HOFT - meet at Marrawah Pub @ 9am.
Sunday 24th HOFT - meet at Marrawah Pub @ 9am.
Organise own accommodation if required. Bring: Gear suitable for daywalk (potentially in wet conditions - the monk has the weekend off), your lunch, and food to share for Friday dinner (it’s Good Friday and everything is closed!), plus the usual Hat Mug Joke Friend $10, extra drinks, money for Pub grub Saturday.

HHH Hash Trash 15 April 2011
The mathematicians amongst us would no doubt recognise that the number of this week's Burnie trail - 1101 - is the binary representation of the decimal number 13.
Luckily, the average Burnie hasher is unconcerned by superstition (and the average Devonport hasher can't count past 10), so any suggestions of impending disaster at the hare-y hands of Ringo will be met with stoic resolve and stiff upper lip (or other body parts capable of occasional stiffening). Mirror breaking and ladder limbo dancing will commence at 4:00pm SHARP from an undisclosed point past the Highclere 'shop' (look for signs, such as a black cat crossing the road).
Bring a hat, mug, joke, friend, $10, raffle change and extra drinks if you are a p!sshead.

HHH Hash Trash 08 April 2011
On one thousand, and ninety nine occasions some flour has been ritually thrown to the ground in and around the Burnie area, shortly thereafter eagerly followed by a group of athletes. Sure, sometimes it hasn't been flour - or even trail - and sometimes it's not been in or around Burnie (unless you class the crime-riddled streets of West Moonah as a suburb of Burnie). Granted, they're not all athletes, either. Not even 'special' athletes.
Regardless, this Sunday marks the 1,100th occasion of something that may or may not resemble a trail set for the Burnie Hash House Harriers, which is by most standards something to be celebrated. Unless you happen to be a member of the Burnie hash House Harriers, apparently.
So, this Sunday hare Ratchet will deliver his usual high standard of trail, sans trumpets and fanfare to mark the auspicious milestone (although the usual strumpets will be in attendance), starting at 4pm from 1054 Isandula Road, Gawler.
Bring a hat, mug, joke, friend, $10, raffle change and extra drinks if you are a p!sshead. Who knows, perhaps there'll be a chocolate biscuit to celebrate - just the one, mind you.
-------------------------------
This weekend also sees the nuptials of Grand Master BoomBoom and Joint Master Giggles (let us hope that there's no confusion and he doesn't accidentally wind up with JM Urang!). Congratulations to both lovely people and we wish them all the hashing best for the future!

HHH Hash Trash 01 April 2011
April Fools Day - very tempting to use the occasion to announce something seemingly newsworthy but ultimately bogus, such as 'A Bit of This renounces her British citizenship and thinks the Australian cricket team "a top bunch of blokes" ', but some stories are just too hard to swallow.
Speaking of swallow (note segue), this week's Burnie Hash run will be the virgin Tasmanian trail for hares Pucker Boy and Sword Swallower, set from the Burnie tennis courts at Eastwood Drive. Be prepared for non-standard markings, strange trail deviations and foreign hash traditions. Much like your average GonZo run, I suspect (c'mon, smoked oysters on Iced Vovos?).
With the demise of daylight savings (he types, shedding a tear), this week's pack will be sent off at 4pm.
Bring a hat, mug, joke, friend, $10, raffle change and extra drinks if you are a p!sshead.

HHH Hash Trash 22 March 2011
Please do not adjust your calendars.
This week's early edition comes courtesy of the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix and a momentary lapse that today, while my last day at work for the week, is not Friday.
This week's hi-methane hash action comes from boy racer Dyke, using the time-honoured Trailmaster method of setting runs yourself rather than asking anyopne else.
The grid is to form up at Dyke's place, 2/64 Tugrah Road, Devonport, with go, go, go at 5:00pm.
Bring a hat, mug, joke, friend, $10, raffle change and extra fuel if you expect more than one pit stop.

HHH Hash Trash 18 March 2011
I see, a bad moon a-rising.
Not so much bad, as ugly. And more than one.
This Sunday Burnie H3 play host to LoonRhasH, sans tea and scones and those little marizipan things that seem to crop up but nobody likes.
The were-hare is none other than the Fool Loon himself, Black Trakka, setting forth not from Forth but from Fern Glade, Burnie.
On! On! will be called at 5pm, which in these disappointingly shortening days should allow the traditional 21-moon salute to happen before Speedy's bed-time. We're pretty sure that it won't be a waxing moon.
Bring a hat, mug, joke, friend, $10, raffle change and extra drinks if you are a p*sshead.

HHH Hash Trash 11 March 2011
No more excuses! Aussie Nash Hash 2011 duties have finished (for most) and it's time to get down to the ordinary weekly hash business - if only I had my list of things to do to tell me what that is.
This week's Burnie trail sees the mobile postcode parked out at Heybridge, with the Mayor setting trail from Blythe Heads.
Somewhere.
Really, it's not that big a place.
On! On! will be called by the Trailmaster at 5pm. Dyke's not real sure what it means, but people seem to enjoy him doing it. Bring a hat, mug, joke, friend, $10, raffle change and extra drinks if you are a p*sshead.

HHH Hash Trash 04 March 2011
No longer in the glare of the spotlight of visiting Hash Relations, Burnie Hash returns to its own version of normal this week. Time to put away the unbreakable dinnerware and bring out the Royal Doulton tea sets again. Speed Hump has promised a normal Burnie r*n too, which means a shortish trail, NO hills and definitely NO pizza.
This week’s trail starts at the corner of Ridgley Highway and West Ridgley Road, approx 14 kms south of Burnie (signposted “To Guide Falls”).
On! is called at 5:00pm; bring a hat, mug, friend, $10, raffle change and extra drinks if you are a p*sshead.

No effort has been spared to ensure that this week's Burnie Trail is well organised, even down to a special visit from the GM of Aussie Nash Hash 2011, who has been sent north on gardening leave.
The trail starts at the Somerset Surf Club (where hopefully they've forgotten about a certain tent episode) and takes in all the hotspots of a misspent youth (LA's not LaLa's).
On! is called at 5:00pm; bring a hat, mug, friend, $10 and raffle change.
