“When you can’t find trail on the right, it will be on the left, and if its not on the left well it is on the right ??????Runners and walkers will actually meet up at a regroup and then separate again just after that”  Well so said the Hare!

The GM called on Mole for a run report and she said we went down the hill and at the bottom we watched Super run off into the distance.  Thought there was a drink stop at the DS but it must have been somewhere else. Would only award 2/10 but because the paths were clean and not slippery, will award 3/10.       Wait-a-While’s walkers report was, “It was too dark to see anything!”  2/10

Returnees:   Dancing Queen,  Jit,  Witch Angel.

Charges:   Chopper for a weird phone that he couldn’t seem to turn off when it rang.   DQ for using a phone in the circle, on the run, or somewhereelse.   WaW for giving his jacket (like the gentleman he is) to Witch Angel because the aircon in the car they were traveling in was too cold.     Super Stork for shortcutting,  what the!

Jit for talking in the circle.  Witch Angel for talking in the circle.

Kotex for talking incessantly on the run.

Birthdays:  DQ,  McTaff,  Wait-a-While

The Cap was given to Wait-a-While because he couldn’t open a chip packet!!

Raffles:  Mole won the white.   Jit won the red.

GM advises that next week’s run will be from the Grand Hotel in Cairns, so be early to order you meal (variety of 5 on offer) before the run at 6 pm.   Cost $12.

He also advised that there will be a celebratory run around Oct/Nov.

On, on,

Tutti

What a great “view from the terrace” and even though there was a cool breeze about several hashers were not wearing warm clothing.  After patting the welcoming large and small resident dogs we gathered to get run instructions from the Hare, who, I believe, had help in setting trail.  “It’s off up the hill and through the park” …….and so it was.

The GM called on Kneetrembler for a run report which was that the trail was well marked, and a very good trail.   “Oh, no,” said Mole, “ you can’t give the run report because you set the trail.”  So she gave us one.  “ It went up the hill, and then up the hill some more, through the park and then up the hill again and over to where we found a very good drink stop with jelly snakes provided as sustenance, then on along the railway line behind Maid Marion’s house and on-home.”  3/10  “Would have been 2/10 only for the snakes.”  Wait-a-while said trail was well marked and awarded 4/10.  Now some reckon that makes it 7/10 but it is really 7/20.  Oh, I don’t know!

Returnees:  Wait-a-While,  Tutti Fruitti and Spreadem.

Charges:   Spreadem for shortcutting with Tutti.   Pearl for setting a Spock lookalike run from 1973, and KT for allowing it to happen.    Spreadem charged for saying that the rest of the circle will be boring from then on!!!!   Kotex for feeding the dogs.  Mole then charged Spreadem for stealing, yes I said stealing, the opener off the esky.

The GM notified that the Trinity celebratory weekend away at Fishery Falls has been cancelled but would hashers like to meet up in Spence Street this Saturday night at 5 pm – on the footpath outside Wiggles and Gangbang’s abode – and then everyone will wander off for a meal/drinks in town.

The GM called for suggestions re Cairns HHH having 2 or 3 weekends away over the next few months of the year.

Wait-a-While said he is putting on a Birthday BBQ at his residence this Sunday from 12 noon, until sometimelater in the day and you are all welcome to share with him. BYO grog and plates would be a help.

Raffle:  Tutti Fruitti won the white (Yeh),  Slag won the red.

On, on,  Tutti.

A large pack of 8 hearty Cairns Hashers rounded up at Trafalgar Park for a very brisk and rather long run set by the illustrious GM Slag!

It certainly was a chilly night to be wandering around the streets of edmonton. We saw some local highlights and lowlights and all made back to the park - although not getting back till 7.15pm. We went a long way from home following a well set trail until.......we came back onto the trail. So, we decided that it must be on home from there, even though the hare was too lazy to set directions so we had to follow the trail backwards! There was something about fairly new looking shoes on the feet of Not Yet and Golddigger wore virgin hashing shoes.

The runners scored it  8 out of 20 and the walkers scored it 4 out of 10. 

There were charges to Slag, Wait a While, Pecker, Fiddler, Mole`, Pro, Not Yet and Golddigger. So all had a down down of their own choice. 

It was decided that when the new lifting of restrictions starts in June the runs will go back to normal as we can have up to 20 hashers. From June 15th it will be food supplied and drinks from the esky but no communal down downs - only from your own drinking vessel. Cost $12 

Until then we have runs set by Pecker and not Yet so all come along. If more than 10 we will split the circle with 1.5m between each hasher. On On

The first taste of HHH freedom and a few intrepid hashers turned up for the first AC run (after Covid) at the park in Blantyre, opposite WAW's abode. The trail was set by Wait a While and what an amazing trail it was. We saw sights of Manunda and Manoora that may have never been seen by HHH before. We did practice social distancing and no more than 2 hashers were in a pack together at any time. Unfortunately the RA was not present so could not control the weather and rain made the run even  more interesting as some trial had been washed away but most of it was still visible. The runners report was given by Pro who gave it 8 out of 20 and the walkers report was given by Pecker giving a score of 2 out of 10 - not sure how that adds up , you do the math!
There were charges to Pro, Slag, Pecker, Wait a While and Mole' of some sort and there was no raffle won as there was no fee paid and BYO grog and food.
Same applies to this cuming week's run at Trafalgar Park. Hope to see you all there. Remember to BYO and also sanitiser. 
ON ON

The hashers gathered at Not Yet’s house in Granadilla Street, Earlville and although some arrived ‘just on time’ the Hare sent them off in all directions.  Main group disappeared down into the drain while others, not so adventurous, trundled off down the road.   WitchAngel’s walker’s report was that we went around and around and up and down 3/10.  While our American visitor, Three Licks runners report was 10/10 because the SaigonSally cut-out look-alike managed to finish before her!!!

(This scribe should mention here that Saigon Sally is a cut-out picture of Three Licks brand new husband that TL carries around with her because SS had to leave her in Cairns……on their honeymoon…..wot the!)

Vistors and returnees:  Three Licks, Supa Stalk, Prickle Magnet and Helmet.

Charges:  Captain F and Success for wandering along holding hands:  Three Licks for continually talking to a paper cut-out called Saigon Sally:  Helmet and Kotex for shortcutting:  Wait-a-While for rubbing NoKnickers on the tummy?:  Kneetrembler for trampling the grass:   Late comers – Spreadem,  Tutti Fruitti, Wait-a-While, Witch Angel and Kneetrembler.  Witch Angel for not bringing the large item along. Pathetic charge to Pro for sitting in the circle…..again!

The shirt was presented to Wait-a-While and raffles were won by Kotex and No Knickers.

The GM mentioned the ‘birthday get together’ to be held on 17^th January at Edge Hill Bowls Club where you can partake of celebratory drink at the bar but purchase your own meal (reasonably priced).

Australia Day may possibly be held at Fishery Falls Caravan Park where a $10.00 meal can be purchased from the BBQ area on the Saturday night and breakfast will be provided Sunday morning.  Arrangements still to be confirmed

Mole stated that there has to be a winding up for Croc Hash so the AGPU will be held at the Cotton Club from 6 pm to 8 pm, on the 8^th February – a couple of drinks will be provided.       

Harriettes Luncheon this Wednesday 8^th January at Cazalys 12.45.

Cairns Hash House Harriers AGPU to be held 10^th February at Kneetremblers House – start thinking about what position on the committee you would like to hold, or who you will nominate.

Not Yet put on a tasty variety of nosh for us all to enjoy – next week’s run is from Wait-a-While’s house in Blantyre Close, West Cairns…be there or be square!

Cheers,

Tutti

After we had all inspected the new kitchen with lots of oohs! and ahas! Twisty sent us off on the run, saying, “It’s not a long run, but very well marked, and there is an extra loop around for the runners to stretch their legs.  Plenty of places for the short-cutters to break off if needed.”

The runner’s report from Pro stated, nearly got lost in the bush to Jensen Street but saw the sign ‘walkers this way’ and I ask what about the runners! So minus 15.!!!!!!!!

Helmet’s walkers report said we all had a little problem dodging all the downed mangos along the drain-side, and as there wasn’t a drink stop, awarded only 3.5.    Oh, dear!

After all the fuss last week with WAW charging Not Yet for missing out on the prize draw at Brother’s, it was revealed that evidently there are two John Brook’s registered at Brothers and it wasn’t our Not Yet that won – if you get my drift!

Announcements:   23^rd December will be a Committee Run from some Hotel TBA so watch this space.      Thanks to the GM for an enjoyable Christmas Run last Saturday.

We were all welcomed by Bella, the Blue Heeler dog, and stood about chatting until the Hare informed us to that there are no hills, no shiggy, no drains and on, on that way!

Runner’s report from Mole stated that she ran down into a canal where Pro managed to find a few forgotten friends who enquired as to why he was running about the place;   she awarded 2.5.    The walker’s report from Xtractit complained about the humidity in such canals and said that because there wasn’t a drink stop, 3.5 – all in all and average run I would say.

No visitors and only one returnee:  Tutti Fruitti

Charges to the Hare of course, and to Witch Angel, Pecker. Guv and MummaMia because they wouldn’t stop talking or something.    Wait-a-While for having a fat belly (hey, haven’t we all!)   Pecker for jogging even with rusty bolts in his knee, and Mole wondered if he can still get it up.   Xtractit for phone abuse,  Mistress for disappearing into a creek.  NoKnickers for being late,   49’er for wasting beer.  Not Yet for going to the Drag show.

Yes, it is Halloween time again and several hashers turned up in suitable attire at Machan’s Beach.   First time for a run from Keith Edwick Park and it was pleasing to note that the Council turned bright lights on at about 7 pm.  Xtractit’s walkers report stated that we went along and back, along the other way and down to the water and along the beachfront on home 4/10.     Not Yet’s runner’s report was that he was the only hasher to actually find trail and although it was well marked, some points off for not supplying fishing gear at the spot where they could’ve had a go, 7/10

Returnees:  Jit,  Chopper,  Diane

Charges: 
It was Jit’s birthday yesterday so she got a Hashy Birthday song.
Chopper chg Not Yet for not calling ‘on’ correctly – something about calling down into the gutter where the sound is deflected upwards – all very technical I reckon.
Spread’em chg Xtractit and Guv for singing the Hashy Birthday song for someone (not a hasher) at Cazalys on Saturday night – bet they were surprised!
Chopper for forgetting the soy sauce to have with the dimsimms.
Bullseye for doing her own private run before everyone else – the cheek!

Cheers,

Tutti.

Yes, Amazon, (for amazing) run in grassland, mountains and streets with loads of water.    Spock’s instructions to the hashers was trail was laid on chalk and toilet paper and it’s ‘on, on’ from the base of the driveway!

We milled around a bit and then decided it was up and over the hill and after another false trail down to the park, across to find a confusing circle of arrows on a building so hashers were all over the place trying to find trail.

Wait-a-While for the walkers reported that it was hard to find trail but a few crusaders battled on up and down hill, then passed Maid Marion’s house where he stopped for a cuppa and then it poured rain for the on-home run. 1/10.

Pro for the runners, well, one runner – himself – said he was the only hasher on trail and was soaked by the rain.  2.5/10.

It was very fortunate for the hashers that Mole had brought a bag of Weed’s old Hash shirts in for sharing because as they arrived back from the run, soaking wet, they were able to change shirts – a few wily hashers had their own change of dry shirts – clever!

Returnees:    Pro, Supa, KT

Charges:  Everyone wearing red shirts – mainly out of the bag!  Spreadem, Guv, Wait-a-While, Not Yet and Spock.

Supa for exercising before the run by doing another run before this one!

Spreadem for wearing her name necklace back to front – we all had a lot of trouble trying to pronounce Medaerps.

Pro wanted to charge Koty who was seen at his run last week by a security camera raking through the garbage for bottles – Bouncer was the standin.

Tutti accused of calling Slag fat – not really – just said a shirt he wanted may not fit.

RA for calling in the rain – however we all loved it!

The Shirt (dripping wet) was given by WaW to Pro for finding trail and not calling ‘on’ to others.

Raffle:  Mole won the white.

Thanks Bouncer and Spock for tasty nosh with ice-cream to follow.

On, on to Slag’s run next Monday at Keith Edwick Park, Marshall Street, Machans Beach (just before you cross the bridge).

Cheers,  Tutti

The hashers were set off along the road/pathway and according to Xtractit (runner) it was “well marked and confusing at the same time.  Told there was no drink stop, but there was, so 3/10”    Wait-a-while (walkers) said there was no bush, no wild life, no shiggy, so 6/10.  GM made it 14/10?   Well, it confused me!

Returnees:  Madam Slash,  DNA,  Swampy,  Pecker,  Jit,  Chopper,  Royal T,  Mistress. Master Farter and Fiddler.

Cheers,

Tutti

Hashers arrived in dribs and drabs, all complaining about the lack of close parking – soooo,  aren’t we a walking/running group???   After a bit of chat the Hare said that it is not a long run and those that need to, can even find a short cut, and off we went….yes, along the dreaded drain where 49’er usually finds a croc or two.  Pecker went his own way, and Kotex searched across the first bridge for trail… of course, it went straight ahead!   Pro’s run report  stated that trail went pear shaped at the 3-way check but he exercised his soliciting abilities in trying to convince a passing young lady to join HHH,   to no avail.   7.5/10    Chopper’s walk report said there was plenty of wrong trail marks and at one stage he heard ‘anguishing’ sounds (his words) in the scrub only to discover a Harriette doing what comes naturally….1/10.

Returnees:   Big Bazza,  Mistress,  Not Yet,  NoKnickers,  Farcanel,  Chopper,  Pecker.

The GM called “Circle Up” but no-one was listening so the opportunity was taken to find a table for the ‘down, down’s and then the GM tried again.

Cheers,

Tutti

Pro’s comment for the runners, was that it was well marked in paint (believe the paint was still from Lemmings long-ago run) and chalk, but he had to deduct several marks off for not allowing more time to tarry near where the “young ladies” (his words) were exercising, also a misplaced drinkstop   3.5

40’er’s walkers report said the marks were too far apart for her tired brains to calculate and awarded 10/10 oops,  not that should be 4.  All very confusing!

The Wedding – the GM introduced the Religious Adviser to the guests and asked him to take over officiating at the Mock Wedding of Moaning Lisa and Two Gashes.  They were asked to kneel before the RA where he then stated, “By the power invested in my ring I will now ask ML and TG to take their vows – watched very keenly by the Groom’s Mother (Xtractit) who made comments such as, “Not sure if she is good enough for my son.” – however the RA said this union could possibly cause the rise of many “moaning gashes”, etc.    The RA asked for any objections to this marriage – Pro offered his services should a divorce be pending, because the Groom’s mother stated that Two Gashes was seen taking off with the stripper at the Hen’s Night.

Eventually the rings were produced and the RA told the Groom to promise to not wear his Hash shoes in bed (unless he had had a shower first).    Two Gashes had to promise to keep ML supplied with food and drinks all through the grand final footy.  All the other hashes had to promise to help out if ML became cosmotose!

The ‘Bride’ tossed the bouquet which was caught by Kotex……hmmmm!

Cairns Hash House Harriers wish all the best for much happiness to Two Gashes and Moaning Lisa who head off this week to Yeppoon to celebrate their wedding in a more traditional manner with family and friends. 

The ‘wedding breakfast’ was served and very much enjoyed by all concerned – well done ML and TG – all guests were asked to sign the ‘be happy’ card and dessert was a yummy fruit cake topped with cream and strawberries.

On, on to next week’s run from Spreadem’s at 432 Varley Street, Yorkeys Knob

We welcomed our visitors and returnees and then the Hare sent us off on the Run down the hill – only problem with that is that we all knew we would be running back up the hill in the very near future.  Retard’s run report stated “It was a large run to get to the drink stop and the shortest run “on home” but awarded 5/10.   The GM said he was deducting 2 points for the longest run and 2 points for the shortest run – so 1/10!!!!

It was getting close to ‘Run Time’ and still no sign of Hash Cash so we compromised and Guv and Tutti Fruitti combined to take the money.   Spread’em said that the run was well marked but there were a few ‘false trails’ and that we would find the beach a nice place to be in the bright moonlight………plenty of light to see any crocs that might be around!

Run report from Dancing Queen giving it a Fabulous walk in the moonlight but only awarded it a .3.    Pro (for the runners) said he found a few checks but no trail near the toilets at the end of the beach and awarded 6.25…….good heavens!

Visitors and returnees:   Jen, from the GoldCoast:  Erica, from Ontario, Canada:  Neil, from next door:   Guv, DQ, Nathan, Two Gashes, Moaning Lisa and Xtractit. 

After giving them a ‘down, down’, it was decided the few faithful hashers who were left should have a ‘down down’ for being there, namely, Slag (GM), Bullseye, Tutti, Pro, Mistress and Pecker.

Charges:   NoNameNathan for doing a ‘hairy’ strip:  Bullseye for something:  Mistress for NOT wearing the ‘Shirt’ on the actual run:  Pro for not finding the trail when standing on a arrow.:  Guv for not having done the weeding?  Spreadem for not having made this a Nudie Moonlight Run:  Spreadem again for loaning flappy shoes to DQ on the run.   Tutti Fruitti for her birthday.

Awards:    Xtractit who salvaged “The Cap” from Nostrildumarse’s car before he headed off to the bush, awarded it to Pecker for having given it to Nostril in the first place ???

Pecker gave the large item to Two Gashes for sitting on the keg.  Mistress gave the ‘Shirt’ to Pecker for endless talking to her on the run.

Rafflewinners:    Pecker and Dancing Queen.

Next week’s run is NoNameNathan’s from Moaning Lisa’s abode in McCormack Street.

Notes:  Mistress advised that if you wish to attend the ‘Christmas in July’ run being held by her on Tuesday the 2^nd July, starting from her home in Machan’s Beach, full Christmas fare for the meal (cost $30), and if you would like to take part in a Secret Santa it will be another $10.   You must notify her asap as numbers will be limited.

Also, any Harriettes attending Tutti’s run on the 26^th are advised to bring torch, chair, plates etc, and warm clothes (just in case it snows).

On, on to NoNameNathan’s Run next Monday.

Pro gave a run report saying, “An unusual run with lots of DS signs everywhere and not much else”……and awarded 1.6735 (wot the!)    Visiting Hammersley hasher XYZ reported he saw many left over Juggy arrows from a couple of weeks ago and awarded .005.   Wait-a-While had Meatballs’ photo standing on the table overseeing proceedings and I’m not sure he would have approved of the miserable points awarded.

Returnees and Visitors:   almost all of the attending hashers, in fact the few left standing in the circle felt quite left out.

Charges:  Pecker for standing on an arrow and pointing out wrong trail.  Kotex for asking where trail went when she could already see the arrows.  XYZ for having turned 70 last week in Perth, but as he had hurried back to run tonight we gave him another drink.  Many other frivolous charges were made, such as the usual to Pro for sitting in the circle.

Awards:  Large item to Pecker for not finding trail??!!  Smaller item to Pro for complaining – well, how unusual.

Raffle:  Kotex asked visitor Peter to draw the first ticket and, you guessed it, he drew out her ticket!!!   Re-draw was the call, and Mole said she would like to check all the other tickets.   However, Kneetrembler won the Red on the next draw.

Returnees Going Down and Chopper prepared some yummy nosh.  Hot soup, and curried chicken and rice to follow.

Harriettes were reminded about lunch at Cazalys this Wednesday, and next week’s run is from Spread’em’s – 432 Varley Street, Yorkeys Knob.

On, on,

Tutti

Supa’s run report said that after one of the checks there were no arrows, not even more of the PINK ones!! But awarded a 9.2.   Kotex’s walker’s report said it was hard to understand why some of the walkers disappeared into the Barrier Reef Hotel and Hemmings Brewery when they could have come ‘on home’ to a nice cold drink.

Visitors:  Hannah, Julie, ChickPea, and Love Shack and Small Goods from Tassie.

Returnees:  Tee Pee, Nathan , Retard, Spreadem, Tutti, and Mistress.

Awards:   Pecker awarded the cap to Nostril for using pink chalk for marks

Raffle:  Spreadem won the white and Nostildumarse won the red.

See you all next Monday at Wait-a-While’s home in Blantyre Close, Manunda.

On, on,

Tutti Fruitti

It has been stated that some Harriettes would not cum to Not Yet’s Run at Waterfall Park  City View because there were no toilets in the Park, so the ever inventive Not Yet decided to install a temporary non-water-closet-cum-changing-area in the Park area to cater for the needy.   Well done!

The Run was set on chalk (and some toilet paper) said the Hare and it was, with an option for the runners and walkers to separate after the drink stop for the run home.  For the walkers, Bullseye said it was a fantastic run with bush and a little shiggy 9/10.  Super, for the runners, said it was a ‘tour-de-force’, a good Easter Run 2.5.

(can’t read my writing)   Kotex for Alzheimer’s for not knowing where she had left her can of beer – sacrilege I reckon!.   Pecker for NOT using the non-water closet and peeing near the parked cars!     Tutti for drinking beer from a champagne glass.    49er for forgetting her Alzheimer’s charge.   Betty Boop for using the ‘changing room’ and nearly sliding off the said seating arrangement.

Awards:   Small thingy to Not Yet for such an enjoyable run.  

                POW cap to Pecker – just because.

Mole reminded all of us that in two weeks’ time Nash Hash would be all over and we would be relaxing again.   Weed pleaded for every Cairns Hasher/Harriette to help out on the register desks Wed, Thurs and Friday at PD to help things go smoothly.   Remember that next Monday’s run is from the Bungalow Hotel, Sportsbar entrance and car park 6 pm. Please advise Cairns HHH if you are coming so that the Pub can get an idea of numbers.

 On, on,

The ‘Circle’ began with the GM displaying his new hat with a warning that if anyone else wants to wear it they would have to become GM!

Cheers,

Tutti  

Oh, no, off around to the left and along the drain !!!! again !!!!!  49er said she saw a ‘stick-a-dile’ in the water almost near where she spotted a crocodile a couple of months ago…..hmmm.  Walker’s report from Bullseye was that it was well marked…4/10. Runner’s report from Pecker said he thought Mole, and not Weed, set the run because we didn’t go into any pubs but gave it a 9/10.

Well, some of the heaviest rain ever, fell about an hour before run time, so yes, some of the hashers that would ‘melt’ in the rain did not turn up but the ‘true blue’ hashers were all in attendance.    Pecker assured us that the run was well marked in spite of the rain and so off we went around the ‘burbs, this way and that.   Of course, Write Off  had to display his water splashing expertise to several of the Harriettes, for which he was reprimanded!!!

It was a good walk and received a 6.2 (somehow).

Returnees:   Nom de Plume, Mistress, Tutti and Not Yet.

Plenty of charges were laid – can’t remember them all – but the rain had eased off which was good because we were all huddled under the small patio roof to have a delicious nosh of yummy ham, potato bake and coleslaw, then to top it off, Lemon meringue pie…wow!

Mole reminded everyone about the Nash Hash meeting for Wednesday 3^rd, and Fiddler announced that she is going to be a Granny in a few months!   And it’s On, On to Mole’s run from her place of business in Mulgrave Road next week.

Cheers,

Tutti

Rain, rain, rain, and then mud, mud, mud (in the back yard) however our hostess assured everyone that it would not be a problem as she would just hose the mud out tomorrow!  We were issued with printed maps showing the run plan and off we went ‘on right’up the hill.   Bullseye for the walkers, commented that it was well marked (rubbish) and a beautiful walk – 5  The runners gave a 3.5 and our GM said that would be 8.5/20.    Xtractit commented that someone had complained on facebook about suspicious marking outside some houses so she managed to put a counter message assuring them is was just arrows for the runners/walkers of HHH.

Further charges:  Pro for sitting in the circle.  McTaff for no hash shirt.   Twisted for her Donald Trump look.  Mole for denigrating other peoples buildings while on the run.  Karen for being clueless (could that possibly be a suggestion of a name).  Hash Booze for bringing TUN beer along in the esky.   Mc Taff for arriving late with the Hash Booze – well it was the first time in his new assignment.   Birthday song for Xtractit,  and stand-in-stuntdouble for Kotex on her birthday was Slag, even though she was off celebrating without Hash – sacrilege I say!

Awards:    Twisty got the large thingy and commented that the round things on the end were rather small.   Mermaid to BT and Pro warned her to be careful with it.

Mole won the rigtheraffle – to be collected next week as Hash booze forgot to bring the prize – well he is just learning the job!!!

Xtractic advised that Pearl, at Port Douglas, can’t participate so that particular run will be cancelled.   We will endeavour to replace it with another run

Nash Hash catch-up meeting this Wednesday, usual place at 6 pm.

On, on,

Tutti

Bullseye’s run description was a little hazy, even saying to head off in a westerly direction, (no, said Slag) maybe head off in an easterly direction (no, said Slag) so she tried northerly (but no, said Slag) and finally headed us all of to the south.  Easy to guess who actually set the run!!!!  We were very lucky to dodge the showers except for a little bit just before the circle so maybe the RA had some hand in that.   Pythagorarse reported that he enjoyed the run set by Slip, or was that Slash, and awarded a 6/10.  BT said it was a lovely walk and well marked but she now had a sore groin!? and awarded a 5, so that would make it an 11/10, or 11/20, take your pick!

Charges :  Slag for using some of Kotex’s last week’s run.  Write Off for non hash shirt. A few of us for carrying umbrellas on the run – I reckon that is what kept the rain away.

Tutti for having too many cars.

Awards:  Pythagorarse presented the large item to 49er for positive talking on the run.   49er wanted to know what happened to the thong off it.   Super for complaining of stiffness – think it was mainly in his finger.

We sang the Hashy Birthday song to BT for her leap year birthday so that makes her just slightly over 17……….no more pub crawling until you are 18 BT.

Yummy nosh with the best corned beef ever cooked by Slag and lovely salads by Bullseye.    Tutti reminded the Harriettes about our run this Wednesday night at Yorkeys Knob.  The GM mentioned the AGPU at Kneetrembler’s in a couple of weeks so contact him to say what food you will be bringing along to share.

Raffles:   49er took the red and Twisty welcomed the white

On, on the Betty Boop’s run next Monday – venue to be advised on the net.

The Hare appeared with a large piece of chalk in hand – did we have to set our own run?  No, it was just so that he could draw his usual “Cutlery Hash run” instructions on the ground so that we would be able to follow them!   On left we went and then across the road to Raintrees.

The walker’s report from 49er was no hills, no shiggy etc, with a nice cold drink stop and robustly marked  10/10.  However Pro said there should be a deduction of 8.2 because of the pool gate being locked, so no swimming!

Charges:  Betty Boop thought she had dropped her socks into the toilet and got a little bit upset until she realized it was just the toilet cleaner:     Mole for collecting mail on the run:     Scurrilous charge for DQ and Twisty for trying to set a fashion style in pastel:   Mole for wasting a beer when BT’s chair “attacked” it:      DQ for thinking this run was the AGPU – oops, wrong week!:    Koty for a toad alert:     49er for wearing her “cum-n-get-me” boots at NZ HHH.

Raffles:  Xtractit the red;  Twisted Sista the white;  BT a lovely jacket:   Tutti a Shiraz.

On, on to Slag’s run next week at Trafalga Park,  Trafalga Road,  Bentley Park.

Cheers,

Tutti Fruitti  

Hashers drifted in slowly, due to some confusion whether the ‘on home’ was at Machans or Holloways.   However, PRO arrived early!

Pro’s run report mentioned that it was a scenic run along roads, through bush and fences and awarded 5.6, minus 3.6.   The walkers report said 2/10, so all in all 5/10 total is pretty good.

Returnees:  Stacey,  Madam Slash,  Write-off.

Charges:  Twisted Sista was charged with having a cider named after her.   Master for the lack of clear marking.   Pro for complaining (as usual).  Write-off for not pointing out the markings.   Bullseye for low profile.

Birthdays:  Madam Slash,  Write-off and Slag.

Would those hashers who have awards hidden in their car, cupboards, bedrooms or bathrooms,  please bring them along next week!      There was some discussion re special shirt for Nash Hash – see Hash Facebook page for sample and details.

Notices:  A.G.P.U. 11^th March at Kneetrembler’s house.   Please consult with him about  what food you are willing to bring along, and more importantly, consider who you wish to elect into office for the coming year.

On, on to Pro’s Run next week from his house in the Little Mulgrave – 5 pm (or thereabouts) start.    No need to bring plates, etc

Cheers,  Tutti

.

It was a damp, cool evening as our small but enthusiastic group left ‘home’ and headed for the hills in Freshwater.  Into the bush, doing a loop around to come out on trail heading down the road and onwards.    Our standin GM requested McTaff give run report and this started with……’It was lovely walking in this urban setting, passed houses where the Harriettes happily viewed young men with hairy chests……’  best not to continue that report, but he awarded the run 2/10.

Returnees:  KT, also Pimp (all the way from WA).

Charges:   Pimp for ‘watering’ in the park:  Bullseye for shortcutting:  Kotex for wingeing on trail (so what is new!):  KT was standin for Twisted Sista and Pro was standin for BT for losing BT’s keys………..in her bed!!!!!   Pro, Tutti and McTaff for low profile (Mole and Royal should’ve been included in that!:  Pimp for being drunk after one beer some time ago!:   BettyBoop for not wearing The Shirt on the run.  Mole awarded Weed’s cap-0-the week to someone, can’t remember who.     Rig the raffle won by Slag.

Mole reminded us of a Nash Hash Update Meeting for this Wednesday night – 6 pm same address as last time.  Be there, or be square!

Tasty nosh cooked by Royal, and fruit cake served by 49er.

On, on to Mistress’ run at her house at Machans Beach next Monday, when it may not be raining!

Cheers,  Tutti

The Hashers all gathered under the lovely tree at the Japanese Memorial Garden in the grounds of our new Cairns Performing Arts Centre and heeded Pythagorarse’ directions for the run, being ‘head off left’ – so we did.  Questions were asked as to why we were running around the hot streets of inner Cairns when the cool Esplanade was just a step away, but never mind, as usual the company was pleasant.  Not Yet awarded a 4 for an enjoyable walk in spite of the bad smell around the inner drain, and Supa’s comments were ‘thought it would be at least a 5-6 k run along the Esplanade’ and only awarded a 3.

Charges:  Prickle, for talking:  Write off for Shirt abuse:  Mistress for parking in a pushbike space:  Kotex and Not Yet for trying to be twins:  Bull’s Eye, BT and Tutti for being the Oslo triplets.  McTaff reminded us that awards had not been handed on which reminded everyone that Betty Boop was not wearing ‘The Shirt’ again on the run!

Pro read out some salient points from a Cairns 600 Run note sheet, and it seems everyone is hot for the Tan Blue Beer.     Jokes came from Write Off, Xtractit and Royal T.  The raffles were won by Pro and Moaning Lisa.   Kotex then handed out kits consisting of a plate, small square bowl, tea towel and eating irons to those that wanted them – very handy just to keep in one’s car and take to each run.

So it’s On, on to 49er’s run next Monday at Jalarra Park in Stratford.

Cheers,  Tutti.

The rain had stopped for a while and the sun was setting over the hills as we were advised re the special ‘Cutlery HHH’ run markings, the ‘on back’ drawing received plenty of comments from the mob.  However, we all took off in the southerly direction, as advised, and enjoyed a run/walk in the cool of the evening.   Nostrildumarse awarded 1/10 because the run marks were in ancient old Norse Rune!  Kotex, awarded 3/100 because her hair got messed up – not sure just how that happened.

Charges:  Kotex for gathering bottles, etc, which only amounted to 30c:  Pecker for losing the pack;  Supa for impersonating Pro:  ML for not completing the training of Two Gashes on how to set a run:  Slag for not being able to count the number of women!!!:  Bulldog for sending loving texts:  BT for talking:  Supa for impersonating Santa:  ML for hooning (?):  Twisty for low-profile:  and Weed to represent JC at this Christmas time so that the JC song was able to be sung.  Hashy birthday for Twisty.

Awards:  ML gave the cap to (I think) Weed for shortcutting and Spreadem got the dummy-spit for not bringing in the other wooden award.

Rigtheraffle:  Pecker got the red and Bulldog the white.

Everyone enjoyed the yummy nosh so many thanks to Two Gashes and ML.

On, on to the run next week from the Japanese memorial garden in Grafton Street – at the side of the Cairns Performing Arts Centre.

Hashy New Year to All

Tutti

The Commitee Run from the Crown had a great turn up considering it was bucketing down rain we all had umbrellas and rain jackets.

Unfortunately, the Trail that was set by Masterfarter had been washed out twice. He made a brief appearance before he went to visit family up the hill thank you for your efforts.

So a stroll in all our Christmas attire around the streets to the GMs Unit by the pool under cover.

Circle was held more rain for a change.

Welcome back, Nostrildumass, Lemming, Betty Boop & McTaff.

Loads of mini raffles - thanks Kotex

Best dressed was no name Davide Di, he rocked his outfit. 

Back to the Crown hotel for Dinner & Drinks, thanks again to Kotex for organising Snacks & Dinner with the Crown.

Some badges & recognition for run numbers given outby Mole.

GM -Xtractit -101 runs

A very steamy afternoon for a run through the swamp area of Holloways, a good run/walk but most of the walkers were obviously not moving fast enough for the huge numbers of mossies that landed on our backs.  However it was soon out onto the Esplanade and away around the streets to ‘on home’.    A cool drink and a swim in the pool were a welcome relief.   BT gave a walkers report and awarded a 5/10m while Pythagorarse said that it was a winding, round-about run through the swamp, with Pro seeming to be running in the reverse direction but awarded a 4.5.

MF was charged for trying to confuse everyone by using different coloured tape as markers. BT chg Kotex for giving her a ‘duff torch’ – think that meant a torch without   batteries!!!  BettyBoop Chg the GM for changing her name to BT.  Confusing!

Betty Boop has to keep the shirt for another week because she didn’t wear it on the run,

Pro was awarded the large ……… for trying to confuse the runners by going in reverse!!

Whew……must be the heat affecting everyone I reckon.

Rig the raffle (again)   Kotex won the white and Pro the Red.  Magnificent pasta nosh MF, you really excelled.

Next weeks Christmas run from the Crown hotel, so wear your Christmas gear, have a great night out and everyone have a wonderful Christmas Day.  

Harriettes – see you all at the ‘Pirate Ship’ end of the Esplanade on the 26^th for a stroll around Cairns, hopefully in the cool air.

Merry Hashy Christmas

AWARDS-
Wanka Tshirt went to Betty Boop

Dummy spit - 2 Gashes

Once again - Spreadem is still holding on to the prick awards.

Well done Lemming, no mossies or other creepy crawly creatures were encountered while wandering around the Wetlands……maybe it was just too hot for them to be out seeking our blood!  Kotex awarded a 3/10 – said the walk was a bit short.  Pro only awarded 2/10.  However we all enjoyed a different area to be walking, away from the hot roads.  Yes it was over 43 deg today in Cairns!

Goat curry and rice for nosh and when I left, Pro was anxiously awaiting RACQ to arrive with a new battery – hope you made it home alright Pro.

On, on next week to Madam Slash’s run from the drop-structure off Ramsay Drive.

Tutti

And a super run it was, along canals (drains) where a young crocodile was sighted by some, out along stretches of roads, through the graveyard and jungles of Edge Hill, on and on, and on (about 8.5 kms)– well that was for the runners.   The wiser walkers made their own trail and back tracked on home.   A very warm evening with lots of liquid consumed with Kotex asking for the empties to be put in a big bin so that she could claim back the 10c now available on returns.  Xtractit awarded 4/10, while Helmut 5/10.

Raffles:  Mistress won the red and Supa won an “Ellis Beach Bag”

On, on to Lemming’s run next Monday.

Cheers,  Tutti

NB.  Sorry these notes are a little late but my computer has been sick for a little while but all is good now!

Some rather weary looking hashers turned up for the Run and all saying what a great weekend we enjoyed at Ellis Beach on the 2222 Run.  Lots of comments were flying backward and forward about this and that, mainly(as usual) the banner was stolen, we ‘seemed’ to have run out of bubbly too early…..hmmm! and that maybe the run was a little too long in the heat of the afternoon, but all in all a great time was had by all.

Vistors:  Captain Planet    Returnees:  Supa Stork. Write Off and NoKnickers.

Pecker advised that there was a drink stop and that he would drive any stragglers home from it, if needed.   Captain Planet awarded a 7/10 for a well set run for the runners, while for the walkers said that the drink stop should have been from the top of the hill but awarded a 4/10…………so is that an 11/10, what the!

Charges:   Pro charged Moaning Lisa for saying No, No to putting a beetle on Two Gashes back.   No Knickers for spilling drinks at the 2222 Run;  Slag for managing to keep our mettle down-down cups safe (using paper ones instead).   Moaning Lisa charged Pecker for such a steep hill in the run.   Captain Planet charged Royal T for getting a ride home, on the downhill part of the run..   BT, NoKnickers, Nomi, Tutti and Twisted were all charged for talking in the circle…….how unusual!    BT was charged for losing her keys – even when she was shown them, somehow (bleary eyed) said they were not hers!

A Susie Wong proxy charged Pro for moaning about the 2222 Run.  Captain Planet charged for his phone call in the circle.   NoKnickers for calling Kotex the GM. Kotex for not accepting a shave when offered. Nomi for complaining about the lack of music at 2222 . Prickle Magnet for the prettiest tutu.   Xtractit for a good weekend all round.

P.O.W. went to Kotex for wingeing.   The Shirt..can’t read my scribble but think it was Helmut

Run awards to:-  Helmut 304,  Slag 219,  Pecker 71,  Twisted Sista 500,  Pro 1001

These totals are approximate.

Raffles  Prickle won the Frontier Cooler, Nomi the white wine, Royal T the red.
     .

On, on to Supa’s run next Monday from his place of business at 144 Mulgrave Road.

E&OA   Cheers, Tutti

Walking on the pathway near all the lovely ducks on the pond was a pleasant start to the Run, then it was back to ‘workin’ on the railway’ around the hill passed the school and eventually into southern Bayview Heights where the walkers lost trail and all wandered around seeking deliverance.   Pecker seemed to find some shredded paper along the railway line but we were all distracted by the drink stop arriving!  Well it was a hot evening and we were all thirsty!  Then we all set off down the road to the highway and back around the hill On Home!   Not Yet awarded a 4/10 for the runners and Pecker, also a 4/10 for the walkers.

Charges:   Koty for being disrespectful.  Supa charged Mole for not being able to get away from Kotex, however she ran away from the drink stop.  Kneetrembler for also trying to get away.   Helmet for providing a non-alcoholic drink stop.  Moaning Lisa for trying to take a short-cut up the bank and sliding down again, and more or less taking a longer way home.

Awards:  The Shirt – evidently Moaning Lisa told Two Gashes that she didn’t have to wear the Shirt on the run, so now she has to have it for the next run.  Not fair, I say, ML should have to do it!!!   Helmet got the dummy spit for finding the lost walkers at the drink stop.    Dancing Queen related that the Big P…….was located in Spreadem’s en suite at the new house. Moaning Lisa and Two Gashes for PDA in the pool.   Nomi for getting a ride home from the drink stop.   Lookalike Tutti stood in for a birthday song for Weed.

Royal T told a ‘long drop’ joke – that was long and amusing. Great nosh and bickies for dessert – thanks Prickle.

Raffles:  Moaning Lisa and Guv

The GM handed out ‘must bring to the 2222 run’ notes and asked hashes to please bring tables and some battery powered lights out to Ellis Beach and reminded us to minimize the use of glass anything, and pick up any rubbish we see – must leave the area in tidy fashion.

On, on to Ellis Beach for the 2222 Run and then Peckers on Monday.

Cheers,  Tutti

The Hare said ‘trail is marked in chalk arrows and shredded paper’, (well, what a surprise!)  and trail is on that way’ as he pointed to a row of trees above a dry creek. It was pleasant walking/running around in some park land and then on to pathways not often travelled.   There was some discussion as to whether the hare had said ‘two arrows and you’re on a false trail’ – or was that – ‘you’re on trail’.  We all made our choices and ran on.   A few of us trailed back along the huge drain behind the industrial complex and so enjoyed the parkway again.   Supastork, for the runners, said,’The run was all over very quickly’ even tho’ the Hare said it had taken about two hours to set! -2/10.   Prickle Magnet, for the walkers said, “Well marked” 5/10.  So that’s a 3/10 all up!

Returnees:  Dancing Queen, Twisted Sista, Pro, Fiddler and Guv.

Charges: 
Two Gashes and Moaning Lisa for PDA in the circle.

Raffles:   Cairns HH Shirt won by Frozen Balls,  Nathan the Red,  Spreadem the White.

The GM urged that hashers attending the Ellis Beach TuTu run to get busy making large iceblocks – mainly so that we can use one to sit Spreadem on – no really, we need them to keep the drinks cool.   Harriettes were reminded that Wiggles’ run is this Wednesday from her Penthouse in Spence Street.   Gather on the pavement outside from 5.30 pm and remember that it is Halloween so bring lollies for the children !?!

On, on to Prickle Magnet’s run from their house at Forest Gardens next Monday.

Tutti Fruitti

PLEASE PUT SOME LARGE CONTAINERS IN THE FRIDGE WITH WATER
TO MAKE ICE FOR CAMP 2222. 

THANK YOU.

It was pleasant to run/walk round the suburb seeing a few previously uncharted streets in the green area of south Cairns.  Mole’s Run Report said the runners found an arrow, then another, then no more arrows, no shredded whatever, after finally tracking down an arrow along another road they ran past the walkers who had wandered along enjoying the scenery.   However, a 2 was the score.  Helmet, for the walkers also awarded a 2.

Lots of trivial charges were made in the circle with Koty rushing about picking the occasional abandoned bottle from the grass.  Virgin, No-name-Nathan was welcomed.

Two Gashes won the raffle.

Hashers were asked to please pay the balance owing for the TuTu run at Ellis Beach so that purchases for grog, food etc can begin.  Out GM requested that Hashers please try and pre-freeze large blocks of ice to bring along to Ellis to keep the grog cool.

Thanks Koty for a tasty nosh and it’s On, On to Slag’s run next Monday.  

Mole called for the group to be quiet so that we could hear the running instructions from the ‘garden gnome’ in the bushes  -  wait!  It was not a gnome it was Not Yet who had climbed up on the wall to give the news of the run to come.   Down, along and up again on a well marked, fairly longish trail.  MF said ‘Yep, good run’ for the runners, while 49er said it was 10/10!

Returnees:
Kneetrembler, Pecker, and Defeatus

Charges:
Moaning Lisa, Two slashes, Defeatus and Nomi for talking in the circle.
Spreadem and Mistress for getting a ride ‘on home’ after they got lost because they were talking so much and lost trail!!!
Kotex for being unable to find trail, even though she was standing on an Arrow!   Not the first time she has done that!
The Hare for quoting “Trail is marked only on chalk” and yet we found Shredded paper – Hare recharged Madam Slash and Write Off for leaving - This from recent run.
Pecker was charged for his liking of whipping 49er – wot the!

Awards: 
POW cap to Nomi;   the Titty to 49er;  The Shirt from Sodonme, via Write Off to Lemming because his name isn’t on it.

Notices:
Kotex asked everyone to please pay the balance (or some more monies) for your 22 22 Run and best get in and reserve camping spots with the rest of the hashers so that we ‘own’ that section of the ground.

Mole reminded everyone that there is a Nash Meeting at 6 pm Wednesday of this week at Value Homes offices on Mulgrave Road.

Raffles won by Two Slashes and Spreadem……congrats.

And it’s On, On to Kotex Run next week.

It was a lovely evening for a walk/run at Yorkey’s and the Hare instructed us to “go down to the beach and turn left (even though he was signaling right), go along the beach until you come to some trees which you should go around if the tide is not too high, or go through the bush and find the path starting point for more instructions.”  We did, well most of the group did, others just returned back along the beach.  Then ‘trail’ was to follow the path northwards and then came back southwards along the beach, which we also did!     Happy to do so as it had been a hot day and the sea breeze was great!  We then all adjourned to Lemming’s home for the Circle and Nosh so that we didn’t disturb the beach-side apartments with our chatter and songs.  Lots of nuts and dip for ‘entrée’ and tasty ‘chicken curry’ – well that was what the Hare called it – very tasty anyway, along with the chips and hash browns.

Visitors:  Moaning Lisa and Two Gashes from Yeppoon, Rancid Bickie and No Name Joan –fairly sure, from Melbourne.

Charges: The Hare (of course) and Spreadem for talking (as usual), then Spreadem gaily tossed her metal drink mug over her shoulder catching Lemming in the face – hope the teeth are OK Lemming.

Mole was charged for running out onto the sand spit to escape the clutches of Not Yet.

Not Yet charged for stalking Mole.

Guv and Spreadem for PDA

Wait-a-While charged for climbing higher than Kneetrembler on the Great Wall of China on their recent trip………go WAW!

Madam Slash was a stuntdouble for the GM (for something).

Spreadem charged  many times for Talking in the Circle, and just being a nuisance!

Fuddley awarded the POTW cap . to Rancid Bickie, 49er received the Spit the Dummy for trying to get Nomi out the front on a trumped up charge!?!

Mole reminded us of the Harriettes Luncheon for this Wednesday, and the GM and Slag encouraged everyone to get their nomination (and money) in for the Ellis Beach TuTu Run, asap.     On, on to Not Yet’s mansion for next Monday’s Run.

Cheers,  Tutti (not TuTu)

The usual run instructions were given:  no hills, no shiggy, well marked, etc but also all the Harriettes were handed a shiny tiara to wear in celebration of the Queen’s Birthday – must say that we all looked just loverly wearing them!   Madam Slash awarded the run 4.5  and Master F awarded a 4, with the comment that it was a well marked run until the rain came.    If I remember rightly it was only a light shower so goodness knows!!!!

Write-Off nominated Wait-a-While as a standin, stunt double for the Queen.

Returnees:  Bullseye, Retro, Pokee, Prickle Magnet, Guv and NomdePlume

Charges and Complaints:  Nomi and PK for wandering off into the darkness and getting lost.   Guv complained there was not enough rain.

All the ex Poms were asked to gather for a photo – so of course they did!

Awards:  Large wooden item was given by WAW to BT to hand to Bullseye – yeh I know, very confusing it was.    The PoW cap was given to Fuddly because he had allowed Write-off to shave his lovely curly hair off!  Sacrilege, I say!

Jokes: from Pecker, and a long and involved joke about counting three trees from Write-off.    Raffles were won by Retro and BT

Notes:  Babinda HHH next week – free camping for all.

Please hand in your $20 deposit for the 222 Ellis Beach Camping Run

Next Nash Hash Meeting 17^th October at Value Homes office.

Gordonvale Races next weekend – horse races not Hash races.

Next weeks run is Lemmings at the South End of Yorkeys Beach NOT at this house because we are a noisy lot!!!

On, on,   Tutti.

Fun walking around the streets with landing aeroplanes very close overhead…interesting!  Then we got to the Esplanade and it was lovely walking along there in the breeze, almost to the far northern end, before diverting across a ‘forbidden entry’ paddock, and then on home.   Spread’em gave it a 3/10 but did remark that it was well marked.

Returnees were welcomed back and charges were laid.   The raffles were won by BT and 49er and then Xtractit stood in for our absent RA and did two namings for NoNameAnne and NoNamePaul who received names that I can’t repeat!  Ask them at the next run!

Xtractit should have been charged for confabulating (!?!) her words.

Pleasant run, good company and yummy food.  Thanks Mistress.

On,On to BT’s holiday weekend run next week.
