See you all there.

Hash Trash 28/07/2008

HASH

RUN 14XX commenced from Lezzie’s Home, behind Hotel Millenia, Sogi. Lezzie has been MIA for a while since he finally took up serious work rather than playing the playboy. LOL. His co-host ACDC was spotted returning on the back of Pat’s (Lezzie’s bro) flashy wheels, supposedly having set the run, chasing Pat. Yeah right!!! He hadn’t even broken sweat when he returned to base prior to the start of the trot.

The trot started off where some of the meres were overheard to whine about the cold temperatures…. Yeah, 27 degrees Celcius!!! thanks to a stiff breeze blowing which would have been better suited for sailing. Trot was led by ACDC who encouraged the runners to take the long route with the “walkers and handicapped” taking the cleaner town route. Godfather was the unusual figure spotted walking with the latter group. Godfather, the true hasher that he is, decided to invest in some new boots and ignore the specialist’s advice not to run any more. You go Godfather!!! That’s the spirit!! Sassy caught up with the handicapped and aged group and helped Godfather spot the trail.

The trot returned to base to the sound of the Gypsy Pickers, courtesy of the Hamilton Boys High, who were on island a couple of weeks prior to entertain and perform at the Music for Life fundraising event plus other gigs around the country.

No un-towards behaviour was spotted during the run. The only amazing thing was that on arrival there was twice the number of people at the base compared to those that set out.

During the ON-ONs, it was discovered that some new boots from Great mother England had just arrived on island and decided to join the AHHH. Obviously, the good times experienced by previous intakes of Medical students has traveled to the nation of the stiff upper lips. Welcome new meres and hashmen from the old motherland. No doubt ACDC will be busy playing tour guide extraordinare besides many other things.

The new GM, Eveready got the proceedings underway promptly and when he pulled out his diary, there were giggles from some of the die hard hashers as the new GM resembled a new reverend with his diary of dirt on some of the hashers. A momentary pause after Lezzie turned off some lights hoping for a romantic hash circle. Sorry Lezzie, GM couldn’t see his sermon..LOL. Back on with the lights….

GM acknowledged the previous Mismanagement for a great job done for the past two and a half years. Shafter as ex GM wasn’t in the house, so SassygirlBJ, Mr. Whippy and XXX took a final down down as part of the outgoing Mismanagement.

Kuini was pulled up for entertaining the whole Niue 7’s Rugby Team the previous Saturday. According to Delicious who enlightened on other details, Kuini had also just turned 21 years, got divorced, is now single again, and one of the Niuean players who was quite smitten with this luscious hash mere, did a strip tease at one of the establishments in Apia. Delicious was then requested to keep the rest of the details to herself.

Welcome back to the Retreads, Tony Blair and Selena who been gallivanting around the globe. Tony B and Selena were also penalized for not responding to an email from the GM checking up on how they were during their travels. DUHHH!!! They were on holidays, according to TB.

SassygirlBJ nominated Mr. Whippy and Son of the Bitch for a fantastic revamp of the new Hash Blog www.apiahash.blogspot.com all are encouraged to visit the site which lists all the info about upcoming hashes, hash trash, maps (very sophisticated) and news about Samoa. Do write in your comments for goodness sake!!!

The GM then announced the rest of his new Mismanagement:

Brewmaster: Karaeoke, Hash Cash: Fang, Haberdasher: Under-rated, Hare-raiser: Snake, and Tony Blair, after being told to raise his hand, was instructed that he is the new Hash Mugs. SOTB and Mr. Whippy to continue with Administration of the Hash blog, SassygirlBJ and SOTB to Co-Scribe.

Under-rated was given an under-sized t-shirt for his 150^th run.

Finally, there being no other nominations from the floor, it was the turn of the Co-Hosts and Hare, Lezzie, ACDC and FBI who reluctantly took his down down as his name had not been included as Hosts for today’s run.

Snake recommended that the first Monday of each month will be a BYO bbq stuff/salad irregardless of who is hosting. Exception of course is if someone is celebrating a birthday, wedding anniversary, divorce or whatever and chooses to host the food as well.

Lezzie, as usual wanted to do a nomination after all the awards. Well done Lezzie, for not listening, as usual.

An excellent spread was put on for all and sunder to enjoy.

Next week’s run will be hosted by Poumuli and Paul from Vaoala. Check the blog for the map, especially for the newbie’s.

Hash Run 30th June 2008

Talofa Hashers,

Today's run will be from the STA fale again. Seeing as there was such a good turnout last week, and the fact that no one has offered to host this week, we will do another run from the STA Fale. BYO BBQ and the keg will be there too. Lets see some numbers today as we welcome some old hashers that have come from abroad to join us for a couple of weeks. Should be some interesting down downs tonight too..lots or rumors flying around over the past week..

See you all tonight at 5:30 sharp...and no, that is not the map attached below..

Flash Gordon goes Down Under - Run - 23 June 2008

Mahalo all folks

Today's Run will be fron the STA Fale behind the main Info Fale. This is a BYO BBQ and if there are some meres who can help with a couple of green salads, pls dont be shy.

We're very sad to see Flash Gordon aka Marcus Berking depart our shores to further his flying career downunder and heaven knows where he will end up after....most likely chasing some blonde bombshells in Europe or Dubai!!!! LOL.

So do come down and lets enjoy a good trot and a bbq and go from there.....yes Lewinsky, there will be a keg....

Hash Run - June 16th 2008

G'Day hashers,

Todays run will be from Headquarters Number 1 (On the Rocks) I wont bother posting a map, as we all know where that is. And for those of you who don't, go down town to where the Pubs are.
No one offered to host the run tonight so we have to do a town trot which is just as well as Lewinsky needs a few down downs.

See you all there tonight. Could be a set run, or it could be a live run...and just so you can have a laugh, I've copied in a joke below...

Yesterday I answered a knock on the door, only to be confronted by a well-dressed young man carrying a vacuum cleaner.

"Good morning," said the young man. "If I could take a couple of minutes of your time, I would like to demonstrate the very latest in high-powered vacuum cleaners." "Go away!" I said. "I haven't got any money!", "I'm broke!" and proceeded to close the door.

Quick as a flash, the young man wedged his foot in the door and pushed wide open. "Don't be too hasty!" he said. "Not until you have at least seen my demonstration."

And with that, he emptied a bucket of horse manure onto my hallway carpet.

"If this vacuum cleaner does not remove all traces of this horse manure from your carpet, Sir, I will personally eat the remainder." I stepped back and said, "Well I hope you've got a fucking good appetite, because they cut off my electricity this morning.

Hash Run 9/6/08

Howdy Do Hashers,

Todays run will be hosted by Ring Ring and Insecurity at their home in Alafua. Please make an effort to be there on time. I'm sure we will be running into the wilderness at some stage of the run and we don't want to lose any Hashers in the bush although I am sure that there are some that wouldn't mind that. AC/DC and FBI...
Directions are head up towards USP Alafua, on the left side, look for the SouthPac Rentals Sign, under a BIG tree, and there should be some hash paper. For those of you who don"t know how to follow directions, the map is below.
See you all tonight

Message from homesick - Springbok

Hello Sassy Girl,

You have perhaps been wondering what has happened to me? well, it has taken some time to try and settle down back herein S.Africa. Although my body is here, my mind is still far far away in Samoa!! especially on Mondays!! I always think back to the wonderful Hash runs and great fellowship.I am attaching a couple of fotos for your records.... my christening was for me a memorable occasion!!! especially all the down downs !!!I have made contact with a Hash group here in Pretoria, called the Jacaranda Hash house. They run on Saterday afternoon andI will be joining them this Saterday at 2pm.I believe Vanessa has been attending Hash, I am so pleased as she needs a change of scenery.How are your arrangements going for the Big Event Jazz & Hash in a few weeks time? Wish I could be there, but alas, finances donot permit me to go away again. I will have to be there in Spirit.Keep me informed of any interesting happenings,Look forward to hearing from you and please convey my very best wishes to all the "Hashers"

Love and good memories from Alice aka "Springbok"

Dear Springbok, we do miss you as well and you would be very proud that "Offspring" has reaaallly taken on the hash ideals.....instead of just discovering the ocean fauna, she is now right into the land fauna as well... bit safer me thinks!!!LOL. We're plodding along with the preparations and as usual Samoan style, no doubt everything will come together closer to the day...nothing like a bit of pressure to bring out the best in our folks.

Take good care and stay in touch with the goings on at the Jacaranda Club. Hope we get to meet up with some of them here in paradise!!!
