Hash Trash 30 July 2010

Dear reader,

You've been strangely silent this past week.  Perhaps you are upset by the attention being shown by 'the other', or perhaps the Trailmaster has finally stepped into the 21st century and you no longer feel wanted (but no, the absence of a decent receding hareline rules that out).
I have been forced to rely upon information via that bint from Burnie, who also happens to be this week's hare.  Trail apparently starts at Pioneer Park, follow signs, probably closer to South Riana but nowhere near Choveau Road.  This seems to be rather vague, but there's nothing quite so ball-tingling as heading out late on hash day with only a general idea of where you are going.  Perhaps you wouldn't understand, being somewhat lacking in the 'two veg' department.
In the absence of information to the contrary, I'll make the call of a 3pm start, and bring a hat, mug, joke, firewood and $10 for brew and burgers; Chunder may even have some ill-fitting shirts from Sarawak to raffle off.
I do hope to hear from you again, dear reader, as I miss your demanding e-mails and rebuking comments.
I've been bad, please hurt me

Hash Trash 23 July 2010

Dear reader,

It seems like an eternity since I have had a chance to communicate with you, and much has happened during the meanwhilst.  During our short separation it would appear that I've attracted the attention of another reader.  Please don't think of me as shallow, but I think that there may be enough wanker to go around. I would understand if you are upset by this news and decided to look elsewhere for your hashing news - Gispert knows that there is so much of it going around these days.
If it's any consolation, I don't think it will last - the 'other' reader likes to get hers early, and I just don't know if I can satisfy her needs.
Nevertheless, I offer the following in the hope that it will be accepted by you in the manner in which it is intended...
This week's trail will be set by that stout fellow, Ratchet, although I will leave it to you to decide if he is short and round stout or rich and dark stout.  The jungle drums of western Borneo did not carry information of where the trail will start, but knowing gay old Ratchet as I do (again, you decide which way the adjectives fall), the trail will start somewhere along Isandula Road in Gawler.
The days draw longer, but I suspect that the run will still start at 3:00 in the PM and that each hasher should bring the usual assortment of cash and kind.

Hash Trash 16 July 2010

To celebrate of the return of our glorious band of tee total hashers from outer Brunei Burnie hashers are requested to convene at the lower car park...(the gravel end) of the University in Mooreville Road for a r*n set by Speed Hump. R*n will commence at 3pm prompt. The On-on will be moved to the new House of Hump in Ridgely where we will imbibe tea and eat scones, jam and Devonshire cream in recognition of our non-drinking friends!

Personally I'd kill for a burnt sausage and a Guinness but we must observe these new Hash Traditions!! (Wonder how long they will last???)

There will be yet another 'millstone' to celebrate.... this time Speedy is welcome to the flour storm as I'm fed up with eating muddy scones at the chicken farm!! The grit gets in my teeth and even the chickens ignore them!!

Now that the 'ABC draw card' at 7.30pm has finished  we may now continue the celebrations with cocoa until late!!

Trash

Is it a bird? is it a plane? No it's Dyke setting trail from the Penguin Viewing Centre in West Park, Burnie. This will be a minor 'Millstone' half the size of the last one!! Soooo more flour for tea and scones at the chicken farm on Sunday. It would be a shame if more than a bit of flour was wasted on this Hasher! R*n will start at 3pm with the on-on moved to the chicken farm to complete the destruction thereof before the owners return on Monday.
Our intrepid Interhashers made their assault on Mt Kinabalu yesterday. News is sketchy but nearly all made the summit, and everyone is safely back at ground level. No doubt we'll hear all the details soon!
 
The next InterHash will be at Borobodun Java from 25th-27th May 2012.
 
Your official WebWanker should be back to take the reins next week!

Burnie HHH.

No 'Millstones' this week (we are still trying to get rid of the flour storm debris at the chicken farm) but there will be celebrations aplenty when our very own captive American... GonZo sets fourth with her stars,stripes and spangled banner  from the far end of Woolworths carpark in Upper Burnie.
A prompt 3pm start for all including a certain Mr. B A Stard of DH3.
Wear suitable attire; bring the usual $10 plus grail and extra money in case anyone decides to run a raffle. There will be plenty of booze for all; unlike in Brunei where our lost amigos have had to resort to drinking chocolate milk shakes!!! The On-on will be at 31 Seaview Ave. Burnie.

Burnie HHH.

While the Web Wanker swans off to Borneo we have to survive in a much less technical form!
Run 1057. Sunday 27th June 3pm Parklands High School car park. Look for the scaled down mobile post code!! ie: Dini's car. Bring all the usual stuff but include extra flour for a millstone r*n. On-on at the chicken farm where in the absence of the owners we will riot and rampage !!
 
Don't forget LoonRhash on Saturday night 26th June. Shearwater Country Club 6.30pm.

Hash Trash 18 June 2010

And so, dear reader, it comes to this.

The biennial madness known as Interhash draws near and its siren song is being answered by 50-odd Tasmanian hashers (and they don't come any odder than this lot). Burnie Hash has surrendered more than its fair share, leaving behind a skellington crew to keep the home fires burning and to keep the call of 'On!' bouncing off them thar hills.

The last hurrah for some of the travellers will be heard this Sunday, with Dini ousting you, dear reader, as the hare du jour. I understand that the pack will assemble at the former House of Hump, 120 Mount St, Burnie, which is now part of the Dingo rental portfolio, with slumlord Dini grasping the dribble dropper firmly with both hands. The r*n starts at the ABC-friendly time of 3:00pm-ish; bring the usual accoutrements.

I note, dear reader, that you have requested that we bring back an orang-utan. I'm afraid that our luggage restrictions may see us wearing every piece of clothing available just to get the luggage home, so one of the great apes may be beyond our ability. Perhaps you can make do with an Urang-utan - he is large, hairy and stinks like a rugby player's jock strap too.

I have no doubt that there will be further communiqués from the north in the coming weeks, but for now I put my last pixel to screen as BH3 web wanker and leave you, dear reader, to experience what it was like in the pre-computer age of hash.

Vale Teflon

The Hashers of the northwest raise a glass to Teflon who passed away peacefully last night.
Teflon's first run was with Burnie Hash at Waratah in 2008 and he was named at a subsequent Devonport run with the certainty that his new Hash name "wouldn't stick".
Even though he became progressively debilitated with Motor Neurone disease, he continued to attend various events at Crow's including the last Christmas run, and he also took a soaking in good spirit sporting his trademark broad smile at the waterpistol run in January.
Our thoughts are with his family and friends.
Here's to Teflon.

Hash Trash 11 June 2010

Dear reader

It's late in the afternoon on Friday, yet I've not heard from you today. You think that just because you have no job that you can slacken off?

I note that the Socceroos prepared for their tilt at the World Cup by training at high altitude. How do Tasmanian hashers 'train' for Interhash in tropical Malaysia? Head to the coldest part of Tasmania and run around the alpine landscape wearing nothing but a kilt, that's what! At least the beer will be cold.

I know that this event is close to your heart, dear reader, so I am sure that you will absolve the forsaking of a quality Burnie trail in return for a run with the C club.

If you haven't booked and paid by now, don't bother turning up. There'll be no bed, no grog and no food (but if you're like Urang, sleeping in the back of the station wagon in freezing temperatures is no issue).

Must go - someone left the gate open and all the sporrans are out and running amok.
