Winter Camp - August 25-27th - Ashleigh Gorge Camp

Fantastic weekend as always and a legendary thanks for the effort by the organiser made for a great weekend of 35 ish 

On arrival I went straight to the mess hall in anticipation of my goodie bag!

Revs pointed a finger and said "over there".

Expecting a black simglet and a bottle of Wards I was more than ecstatic to find a quality warm hash t- shirt that won't get lost in the bottom draw! Sorry DT you registered too late.

Daggy opened the bar at 5 where an orderly que formed for the Keg and the games begin catching up with hashers from Auckland-Napier - Wgtn-Nelson and both clubs from CHCH of course!

Saturday after a good night's sleep in what was old school house accommodation with great showers heaters and comfy bunks we all demolished a full breakfast for champions poached eggs cooked to perfection bacon suassies toast tea etc thanks Nazal Lip Splitter dogs and others on duty.

A fine day ensued and after the hares instructions that no one listens to the trail crossed the river and up a short hill for an hour with a PS at the top by a waterfall with a view over the Canturbury Plains.

We got off lightly as in 2013 the hares got abit excited and went on a four hour hunting expedition in the foot hills!

After a second and third PS we all wound up dragging chairs outside the mess hall and sat in the sun telling more lies and drinking piss for an hour until the committee called the circle! The fines flowed after a wee cat fight amongst the committee hussys as to who was in charge so yes Bolix lead the charge and stole RLDs fines backed by a different song for each fine by the song mistress Revs who has an expanded memory for hash songs!

Raffles were drawn more drinking a siesta then more drinking and chatting followed by a an amazing dinner! Lasagne oven baked Veges a yummy curry and the rest

I did enjoy the Jinga Oxfan what a great game but she's a bloody sore loser "I don't want to play amymore" she said. Some of hussys must of had a good night as old ABC was awoken by some raucous howling at 2.30am which had to be Bolix or Lipsplitter or Miini Ha Ha!!

Sunday another sumptuous breaky a recovery run round the camp and a wind down circle to end another successful winter camp with thanks to the organisers of GCH3 We all just keep coming back.

Thanks again and onon till next year

RAT RUN - AUCKLAND HHH Saturday 29th July

Special Winter Event – The RAT Run

(Rail & Ale Trail)

Date: Saturday -29/07/23

Meeting Point: Britomart Station – BEFORE 10:00 am

Travel by rail to Swanson RSA, then return to City:  With Piss Stops along the way home

Schedule:

Travel Britomart to Swanson (RSA) on 10:04 train

A drink at Swanson, then start homeward journey:

PS1: Henderson RSA,

PS2: Glen Eden RSA,

 PS3: New Lynn RSA,

PS4: Avondale RSA,

PS5: Kingsland Bar(s)

Plus another unscheduled bar

Fiinal destination: Parnell RSC

People started assembling at Britomart Station before 10 am, and the weather was

looking promising – cold, but no rain. Old hashers were appearing out of the woodwork –

Mr Plod, whose last run was in January 2022, when Auckland came out of a long

lockdown, and Big Dave who last appeared at the 40 th Anniversary in 2010. Plus, DT had

travelled up from Wellington for the event. We left at 10:04, taking up a fair portion of a

carriage. We arrived at Swanson an hour later, after picking up more hashers along the

way.

First call was Swanson RSA, where there were 25 of us. This first venue generated some

fines – DT left his bag behind, which was luckily secured by the Hash. Demon mislaid his

phone, and got others to ring his number. The sound led to where the NWHHH were

sitting. They couldn’t convince him that they didn’t have his phone hidden away, till

Woody found it under the table. Back on the train, to head for Henderson RSA.

We arrived at Henderson, and had a drink. We had to wait for some who’d had a second

drink at Swanson, and caught a later train. Thirsts quenched, it was back on the train for

Glen Eden.

Arrived at the Glen Eden RSA for a round, and were met by our illustrious NZGM,

FknFeFiFoFum, along with his predecessor, Bird Table. People were starting to get hungry,

so we supped up and left, as we had arranged for the kitchen at New Lynn to stay open

for us. Back on the train.

We arrived at New Lynn RSA at 2:00, to be greeted by our genital host, Dodge. By now

our numbers were growing. Rabbit and Captain joined us there. Our old mate Mighty

Mick was there as usual, and he’s looking like our old mate Gutz these days. A bloody

good feed, at low cost, kept the hashers happy. Dodge put on some jugs of beer for a

fines session:

DT: Lost bag

Demon: Lost phone

Hot Stuff: Missed train, cos she didn’t have her fare ready

Maybe: Ignored instructions to head for Newmarket, and stayed on train to Britomart

Arkles: Took risk by having phone next to pacemaker

Nellie: Taking his grandson on a pub crawl

Big Dave: First Hash since 2010

Mopiko: Called a Dirty Old Pervert by one of his Yoga classmates

All GMs: A down down

Hacker, DT: Visitors

RAT run Report.. Another successful train run on Saturday 29 July with quite a few visitors, out of towners, hussies and hashers from the past with AT not shutting down the lines at the last minute- but the usual cones were well placed in Swanson on the road to the RSA- much to the satisfaction of Loose Change.

Approximately 30 assembled in total at various stages (some just started at New Lynn) on a nice sunny day.

Well marshalled by GM Demon, with ample time for many beers over a day and evening.  The Swanson RSA has to be the flashed RSA in the country – more like a Country club than an RSA. Ironically the final destination RSA in Parnell was in stark contrast to the area and the Swanson. Even complete with barmaid with no teeth and a bludging patron who incurred the ire of Hacker. 

Revs had a bit of fun early in the day with a Wellington visitor who thought he had left his backpack behind at the Swanson.   Revs was supposedly making phone calls to the RSA, Auckland Transport and probably even the Mayor while also taking photos of said backpack in various positions close by concerned Wellington visitor. 

Dodge was excellent as usual and arranged the meals to be available at New Lynn and shouted the down downs – quite a few enjoyed a cold drop including the presence of the ex-NZ GM and the new NZ GM, who gave a quick update on how the Interhash planning is progressing for Queenstown and that the all is on target. Well organized by the GM and Gawd Knows. A nice reunion

RAT run wrapped up early evening after a pizza meal put on by Auckland Hash and then it was home in time to watch the AB’s thrash the Aussies.

Wellington Hash - 2500th Run - Friday and Saturday 16-17 June.

Around 60 hashers enjoyed the warm up 2499 run from Bubbles work garage on Friday 16th June. Both a walk and run round Wellington City with a piss-stop at the Wellington Hearing Association on Kent Tce. Many went for the short cut to WHA. Back at the garage and the pack were treated to Pussy Puppy’s venison burgers. A very boisterous circle, fueled by Brewers Droops 7% plus craft beers. Songs - A reasonably amiable battle between the conservatives “Ve only sing the von song - Here’s to………… “ and the many visitors and Wellington Ladies and Capital who were determined to upset the one song applecart !! Thanks to Auckland Hash for leading the alternative songs.

2500th run was Saturday 3pmish from Tanera Park. The walk/ run was held in fine conditions leaving after three o'çlock & thanks go to the Hare, High Heels for setting good trail. Comment was made later to the fact that walkers were misled by false trail (not of the Hare's making) to a 5 yr old's birthday party but it was without incident. Both walkers & runners reunited at the Brooklyn Army Bunkers in Waimapihi reserve for a Piss Stop graced by the appearance of three kaka. Arsenal & Fatboy came in early for the runners. From here it was a swift descent with a quick Hash View to the Brooklyn War Memorial & a return to our venue by some time between four. & five

 Attendees settled in for the evening meeting & mixing & then Tripod, K9 & Shitting Bull led the formal sessions where Mildew was fined for together with Goodyear wearing the same outfit to each run. Hashers from each of the different participating hashes were invited to have a down down. It was noticeable how many members of the Wgtn hash were joined by their partners and the good numbers from the other Wgtn hashes: Capital, Ladies & Geriatrics who participated. Alison did the karakia before the meal then Long John Silver piped the guests in to the tables laden with kai. Pussy Puppy with his  team had outdone himself with spit roasted pork, lamb, ham, roast vegetables & salads & garnishes & gravy followed by Christmas pudding & custard, trifle, pavlova & fruit salad.

 Entertainment was provided by Hash Brown with several tunes & also skits from a variety of car pools & then a rendition led by Captain Cook of the 2,000th run's Swing Low Sweet Chariot. 1 Pint of Ladies Hash wanted it noted that K9's actions to the above were excessive.

 So all involved in the 2,500th run both the committee & all participants both local & those who travelled from Auckland, Tauranga, Wairarapa & Nelson are to be heartily congratulated for their part in what was an unforgettable weekend of celebration of Wellington's founding hash.

Thanks must go to the committee for the outstanding organisation of a fine celebration of the Wgtn HHH milestone run/ walk & the nearly 100 people who gathered on both Friday night & Saturday afternoon & evening. So hats off for many hours of hard work to Tripod for the historical displays & the collection of photos & old run books & film clips, to Brewers Droop for his wide range of special brews & transporting the same, to Oggy for organising the souvenir pink T shirt, to DT/ Korokoro hohonu for reconciling the accounts & to K9 as Ayatollah for involvement and not forgetting Pussy Puppy for the catering.

 

Next our thanks to those former members in no particular order who took the trouble to travel & attend & made it such a memorable catch up: Top Deck, Hood, Fingers, Jeremy, Flies, Jim Jim, General, Free Porn, Gnash, Tripper, Mildew, LSD & Loopaper.

Jim Jim spoke as an attendee of the very first run & was joined in speaking by Loopaper who reminisced on his introduction to hashing whilst based in Singapore. Town Planner at age 88, who together with Biggles, remain as our two oldest current hashers, was presented with a souvenir tankard. Mention was made of those now departed hashers & a toast was made in their honour. Rangoon Flyer & Bridgend and their wives joined us as two of the longest running members & were in excellent form.

 

On on,

What an amazing Nomad for those that showed up were well rewarded with gourmet cusine thanks to Daisy and helpers working their arses off in the camp kitchen! Especially memorable roast pork and trimmings on the Saturday night.

After a 4.5 hr drive curtasy of Tripod we arrived at 5pm Friday and met with a warm greeting from Daisy and Red + Daisy's dog Rough we stoked up the wood burner and got madly on the piss telling the usual lies till past midnight with the 20 or so who showed up for Friday including the NZ GM crashing through the door around 8pn! A delicious lasagne with pies for the entree for dinner 

Saturday the last of the stragglers arrived the run was set by Tripod and a fine slither of sun came out just enough to notice the snow on the peaks above us and fuck thankfully we had heaters in our rooms a rare luxury for a Nomads

So ofcourse the arsonists and fire crazy hashers had to play with the out door metal fire pit and created a bloody inferno with one large log thrown on by the NZ GM caused a leg to collapse on the Brazier ! Some old hands had to take charge and fix the bloody thing. A delicious roast was served by our resident chef and helpers after that I fucked off to bed still recovering from drinking Waikato the night before. 

Sunday we awoke fresh to that sleety sort of shitty rain that's enough to fuck one off when out on Bush trail.

The muster gathered 10am for the camp custodian Nicky to take a group photo after a breakfast for champions was served and off a great bush run for an hour's run or abit long for the walkers with a wee puddle to walk through!

The ex NZ GMs partner took a wee tumble on a tree route but as I was tail ending I was on the scene within seconds of the event! The Worm then ran the trail twice.

Back to camp for lunch a few beers and the circle run by Bird Table and Tripod where BT called for nominees for future NZ GM positions where a few rising stars were mad enough to come forward  ..

The cocktails started the guitars came out and rest is history!!!

Thanks for a great weekend folks look forward to seeing you all next Kings birthday.

NZ NASH HASH - 14-16th April 2023 - Kaiteriteri

NZ NASH HASH was a memorable week or more of Hashing at the top of the South Island. 

 

The main event kicked off at 2pm on Friday the 14th April , however there were other memorable lead in events to the main show. 

1.       RED DRESS RUN Wednesday 12th April  6pm  -  HOSTED BY NELSON HASH.  Well over 250 hashers resplendent in red assembled at the Nelson Rugby club to be welcomed by Nelson GM Teddybare.   He announced the charity as Salvation Army.  And it was off round the streets of Nelson.   Photo opportunity at the local war memorial steps and then a big Piss-stop at a central city park.  A balmy night added to the occasion.  Back to the Rugby club for more festivities and the awards for best dressed judged by Tripod. 

2.       Memorial Run -  Thursday 13th April  -  Memorial Park Motueka midday.  A quickly put together back to basics Hash run put together by Ra, H2Ho and DT to cater for the Hashers who wanted a decent Hash trail before the drinking of Fat Katz.  5km for walkers and 8 km for runners round the streets and parks of Motueka.   Ra MC’d the circle of 60 Hashers with lots of fines and songs, notably Cosmo and MacWatt.   Drinks supplied by DT’s old rugby team. 

3.       FAT KATZ – Number 10 – Thursday 13TH April.  Registration from 2pm Motueka Hotel.  Nearly 300 to be weighed in and rewarded with beers pies and a tee shirt – full Fat Katz or Wannabe.  The “Run” itself, at 6pmish  was no more than 150 m which  Xerox and Toyboy added to with humour and fines.  Drinking into the evening. 

4.       Winery run -  Friday 14th April  Midday-  Feefoofum hosted and organised a run round the vines starting at the Riwaka Hotel.   This was designed to slow down the infux into the main Kaiteriteri venue for Nash Hash.   4km scenic trail set by Poopa from Nelson.   

 

NASH HASH

Friday was the usual move in, register and let the partying begin.   Weather came to the party as it was a fabulous 3 days of fine and calm conditions.  Abit chilly at night but most came prepared and there were many ways to warm up.  Very impressive array of beer on tap with local brewery Stoke providing Hazy IPA, Pale Ale, Dark IPA and Cider

Down down competitions were held before dinner with Mini Haha taking out Womens and Sproggy the Mens.  ( Quinella for Wellington with Deepthroat 2nd) Also in the Womens, Wrinkly Wrangler did her Mount hash proud, finishing 2nd in her 1st ever competitive down down.

Toyboy as head honcho of the NH Committee kicked off the event  and the DJ carried it on well into the early hours.  

Saturday had breakfast followed quickly by the various runs setting off from the camp into the large mountain bike park above the camp.  Ball breakers off at 9.30, then  long runners 10.30, medium at 10am and the walk at 1pm.   Very testing country.    The beers later well earned at run end piss-stop and entertainment provided by a water slide.

After the runs there were a multitude of out door games set up by the hard working committee.

Next the main Circle with Toyboy once again taking charge. Assistance from Xerox and Mole and songs from Revs.  

Next up were the boat races which soon settled into an Auckland benefit.  

Fantastic meal at 8ish with an experienced and hard working  bunch of Hash chefs led by Mimi

Then more partying into the night.  

Sunday -  Meetings, Recovery Run, pack up and farewells day.  

NZGM’s meeting and the new NZGM announced by outgoing NZGM Birdtable as Feefifofum. 

As was observed, Birdtable with her assistant The Worm, was an incredible NZGM and the couple could be described as a 2 for one NZGM.  Feefifofum looks to be similar but all in the same body. 

Recovery run and then it was On On to Auckland in 2025.    A hard act to follow.  Well done Takaka.  Some very hard working committee members like those already mentioned then others such as W.E.N.DY , Boulder Holder, King Not Rob and Fee Fi Fo Fum.

Rangitoto Island Run - Auckland HHH 20th Feb

For only the second time, the Rangitoto Run was postponed, due to foul weather. In fact, Hash was cancelled completely when Cyclone Gabrielle hit. So, the rescheduled Rangitoto run was held a week later. We had 40 registered initially, but this shrank to 30 for the rescheduled date, which covered the cost of the boat. Food and drinks were covered by Auckland Hash. 6 o’clock arrived, and the boat left Westhaven, and out into a tranquil harbour, under a sunny sky. What a difference a week makes. As we reached Rangitoto Wharf the GM announced that the runners’ trail was to the top, then down to Islington bay, with Nellie sweeping. The walkers’ trail was round the side of the mountain, with Hard to Port sweeping. The beloved GM stayed on the boat, nursing a crook foot. Carmen and Gladwrap were working hard in the galley, preparing the tucker. Some of the cruisers got off at Islington, to await the two packs. First runner in, by a country mile, was Bird Table, soon followed by first walker, Boring. The rest of the participants were far behind. It had already got dark, with Maybe, Worm & Nellie still out. The call was made to start hoeing into the tucker, then the tail-enders arrived. Good job done by both sweepers, keeping everybody safe. Great feed of ham, salad, buns – followed by steamed puds for dessert.

The GM then called the erection.

·         Demon got everyone to drink to our Hash mates in Napier and Gisborne, who are doing it tough, after the cyclone.

·         He then welcomed all Visitors & Returners Boring was straining at the leash to dish out his fines, so we let him let rip:

·         Carmen – Didn’t stop the cyclone, but managed well with weather this week

·         Mopiko – Gave up his painting to come to Hash

·         Hard To Port – Lost glasses

·         Loose Change – TV star

·         Seal Sucker – Ran to lighthouse

·         Old Ram – Expert on Shitting,

·         Diarrhoea, Vomiting

·         Other Fines: Mopiko – Looks like Gilligan, with his upturned hat (Worm said “What’s Gilligan’s Island?”)

·         Maybe – Bent down and farted in Worm’s face

·         Hard To Port – Didn’t have a run sorted for next Monday

·         Dio & Gladwrap – Great job with the catering

Geri's 2000th Weekend 2-3rd December - Haitaitai Community Centre

Just over 60 hashers enjoyed a sunny warm and calm 2000th run from the Haitaitai Community Centre.

Hares K9 and Gatey welcomed the assembled Hashers. All of them either current Hashers in Wellington or ex Hashers from Wellington. The run turned out to be a killer with the trail going down to Evans Bay Parade around the waterfront and then climbing up various steep sets of steps and pathways to the Piss-stop on top of Mt Victoria. All was forgiven there as not a breath of wind was present and there were a multitude of fine beers and wines. Trail home through the bush of Matairangi back to home.

There the Geri’s GM Smash welcomed with fines aplenty. RA’s Spiderman and Knockez ruled the roost. Then Hash Brown and Oggy performed a Waiata and then a Geri’s celebration song loosely based on some famous song. Then drink and food into the night. The weekend sponsored by Waitoa brewery and also by Brewers Droop.

Goa Interhash November 10th to 13th 2022

As a 270-ish person event it was fantastic, food and drinks all very good. .
Sunday had 50 % dropout on trails so problem free

Beer - Kingfisher - in 333ml cans so no time for it to ever get warm. They also had bottled G&Ts so people fairly happy.

Bluevain did a Queenstown Interhash 2024 presentation at venue


No Hash acts at all.

And No “official” Downdown competition - Mix up / comedy of errors from Interhash committee.

However there was an unofficial Down Down contest organized by the Worm and Birdtable with Ra MC'ing
They used cut off water bottles for individual "vessels", ladies 3 cans and men 5 cans so Mens downdown, at 1.65litres, smaller than the normal 2 litre vessel.

NZ got 2nd in both ...beaten by the last contestant - America Interhash champ from Alaska beat Birdtable in Ladies, and an Indian guy who beat Xerox in the Mens.

Indian guy win was great for a home win, sadly no trophies for them.

Bay of Islands Hash 777 run - Saturday 27th August

Not quite in order, but a great weekend away at Bay of Islands Holiday Camp in spite of it being mushy and muddy underfoot.

Magic's new campervan gumboots were perfect for the conditions.

Saturday 3pm. The trail had been laid by our hares, Knose and Tight Bolt, once they had shaken out the old damp mildewed flour from the dribble dropper and replaced with new.

Over the road, littlies, biggies and in betweenies. The private road took us up to a check where Dimmer and Little Dimmer branched right looking for trail. "You're going the wrong way" echoed through the now decimated pine forest while the old farts came to a large tree fall. some clambered over, or around, some thought of their expensive prosthetics and elected to turn back and hunt out the P.S.

Trail came to a full stop and those that had ventured, turned back and got passed by the younger and fitter bouncing back.

On our return we spied hashers off trail **?? ^^+! Hadn't they learned. A red shirt (Tight Bolt) , a psychedelic blinding pink shirt (Blackbeard) and a few black shirts Dimmer and Tinnie. Blackbeard seemed to be in the swamp, up to his ears in the bulrushes and toi toi.

Lucky it was a 3pm start. We all got back in daylight and met Screw Loose at his hash mobile where refreshing nectar was produced.

Back to the campsite, a quick shower and we dressed in theme for the evening celebrations.

Tight Bolt as purser of the aircraft was in charge and started the evening off. Awards, non awards, birthdays Screw Looses 71st, and general bonhomie.

Screw Loose and Tight Bolt's family did an outstanding dinner, what a feast. Ham by Shuttle, Lamb, fabulous potato bake. and a 71st cake in chocolate and carrot cake with a brilliant blue icing.

Thanks to Screw Loose and tight Bolt's family for a great weekend.

Little hashers Toby, David and Michael kept us entertained with birthday balloons.

Loud Memorial Raglan - August 22nd 23rd

On Monday 22 August a Community memorial service was held at 11 am at the Raglan Town Hall for

Loud (Lord Robert James MacLeod). There was a welcome Karanga/Mihi/Karakia/Wiata.

Guests were then welcomed by Dagy, celebrant for the service. Wellspread gave an excellent eulogy.

Other tributes followed from family, Raglan Community Board, Waikato District Council, Raglan

Volunteer Fire Brigade, Raglan Lions and Dagy for H3. Loud was piped out to the tune Amazing

Grace. Following the service attendees moved across the road for a wake at the Raglan Club where

many memories and tales were told.

On Tuesday 23 August Loud’s memorial hash run set by hare, Humpy, began at 11am at the Raglan

Camp Ground soccer field. A collection of many veteran hashers from around NZ assembled to

accompany Loud on his final hash run. The trail commenced through Raglan Domain, across the Te

Kopua channel via the Papahua footbridge, and continued past places associated to Loud, including

Raglan Volunteer Fire Station for our first check, before continuing to the second at Raglan Town

Hall. The pack slightly diminished as we climbed to view Raglan harbour and bar (the sand bar across

the harbour entrance and not the tavern variety) before descending to navigate the Kaitoke walkway

past Raglan Area School (where the experienced pack provided expert advice to students on how to

slide down a soapy slide). A third check and PS, was made along the walkway with a view over the

inlet to the MacLeod residence. It was On Home to their abode from there. The circle and fines

followed and a few wee drams in tribute were also downed. His casket was placed in a coffin, built

by Short Planks and Dagy, together with the ashes of both his canine mates, Tammy and Maxi, who

had gone before. Also included were the consumed whisky bottle and hash memorabilia including

his mug and MacLeod hash kilt. The signed lid was secured, a nip of very special single malt

Chieftains MacLeod whisky was drunk to his memory and he was laid to rest in the garden under the

avocado tree. A BBQ followed with many memories and tales told. A great send off for a great

hasher.

On On Loud to join that hash pack in the sky.

Winter Camp - Aug 5-7th

What a fantastic weekend with the cosy number of 41ish mostly south islanders known for their hospitality and putting on a bloody good pissup!

Friday night the beer showed up on Emdefs trailer and hashers started dribbling in from the pub crawls down from Christchurch!

Festivities hurriedly began as it usually does with hashmen drinking beer at the keg outside and the Harriet's getting rather shit faced playing drinking games inside! STD our chef rustled up mouse traps to slow down the eventual consequences of such activities.

A tropical light breeze blew known from my hazey childhood memory as a Norwester which blew its arse off for an hour causing a power black out at 9pm "the drinking games continued" a small glitch! so we all thought but the south has a few old macracappa trees that just happen to fall onto power lines.

The next morning still no power! So STDs competent calm manner got Toyboy out of bed in his camper and told him we are using your gas and your BBQ to cook breaky! It was noted Toyboy nearly didn't bring his camper as he was told there was surplus accommodation!

As predicted and there were many predictions over the weekend the rain followed the Norwester and a shit tonne fell overnight leaving the hare to recognize his run plans to a nice gentle amble through farm land past the old homestead and back to the youth camp for the circle and a great lunch prepared yet again without power!

By this time the event organizers were thinking how the fuck were they were going to prepare a main meal on Saturday evening on Toyboys BBQ!

Well south islanders are resilient creatures and RLDs family in Geraldine happen to know Trev who has a neighbor called Trev and a cousin called Derek! So a trailer loaded with a large BBQ and generator turned up at the camp as a contingency! After all this kerfuffle the bloody power goes back on around 2pm much to a sigh of relief from Dingaling and STD!

Can't remember allot about the circle as I was in my cot having a nap after being kept up till 3am singing songs with Daggy on guitar and MiMi pouring dark Sambuccas down my neck! However I did here Daggy in the circle interjecting on more than one occasion!

After the circle the whisky or wiskey club settled in to the end room for a serious session while the rest of us dusted of our hang overs played games in the hall and just having a good chit chat and socializing that we all do so well at in the Hash!

A feast was served by STD and helpers then the theme night began "nursery Rhyme" fancy dress judged by Ding!

Nursery Rhymes theme winners were MiMi as Little Miss Muffet & Pannikin Cider as the Old Man Who Bumped His Head (its raining, its pouring).

NZ GM Bird Table ran the recovery run circle on Sunday with a heap of deserving fines gathered over the wknd! One in particular not to be scribed.

another successful although a liitle stressful Winter Camp for the organisers no covid cases reported and a big THANKYOU!

Demon’s Train Trip the RAT Run – Saturday 16th July

Saturday started well enough, 111 and I caught the train at Baldwin Ave and we picked up others on the way – Loose Change Dio and Bwana for three – and eventually caught up Hacker and Gawd Knows at Swanson. Xerox was up from Rotorua with Tnuc (who’s visiting from Newcastle) and they were staying with The Worm and Bird Table, so we ended up with pretty good numbers – I think we had 17 on the train. Dio had a senior moment at Swanson and discovered he couldn’t tag off on the train using the open-door buttons…… The RSAs Swanson, Henderson and Glen Eden and then to New Lynn where we had lunch at the mall before going to the RSA where we caught up with Captain. Dodgy is the Club President and ran a circle for us. It was here that we caught up with Mighty Mick who is back in Auckland from Orewa. I haven’t seen Mick for years – it is suffice to say that if one’s girth is a measure of happiness then Mick’s had a happy life. It was good to catch up and it would be great to have him back in the pack. China got talked into buying a subscription to the RSA by Dodgy then discovered that the Hash had put on free beer at New Lynn. I wonder why he’s called Dodgy…? We lost a few at New Lynn including Piss on You and it was then on to Avondale where we caught up with Fe Fi. That was the end of the line for Dio and Triple One and I hopped off at Baldwin while the balance went on to Parnell. All in all it was a great day. Thanks Demon for your organization, it looks like this could be annual event

Matariki TTT Weekend 24th to 26TH June – Picton

A very enjoyable weekend in Picton on the 1st Aotearoa Matariki weekend, organised by Thirsty Thursday Taniwha Hash of Wellington and attended by around 60 Hashers.

The weekend kicked off Thursday in Wellington with the regular TTT run where the pack was greatly bolstered by the North Island Hashers in town for the ferry early Friday. Starting at the Welsh Dragon Bar, a small pack set off for a pleasant stroll round the Wellington waterfront to meet up with the out of towners at the Piss-stop in the Civic centre. From there it was another short walk to a mid city bar where Dio from Auckland distinguished himself by over jealous bartender assistance.

Friday was the 8.30am ferry sailed and a Ditch run on board. Nice calm sailing and at Picton the Hash were led on a short live trail by RV to a park on the waterfront. No show from the Nelson (still on way) and Christchurch (testing out guitars at accommodation) hashers but the pack were entertained by a lesson on Matariki from Kaumatau Hash Brown from Wellington, before a short circle.

Next on the days proceedings was a Hash run hosted by Wellington Ladies at 3pm to celebrate Matriarch Chips’s 1800th run. Hares One Pint and DT. This was planned to lead into RV’s planned pub crawl at 4.30pm. However like many a Hash event incompetent helpers impacted on the plans and so the pub crawl did not keep to schedule, although about 40 hashers enjoyed a splendidly cunning trail and Piss-stop by the mini putt.

It was each Hasher to their own choices in the evening, but a great evening was had at the Thirsty Pig Tavern where the one man band had the Hash dancing all night. Dancers led by Birdtable and Cisko Kid.

The main Saturday Run kicked off at 11am at Endeavor Park. A nice long trail set by RV and Panicking Cider – around 8-10km mostly in the bush. A wet day but the bush provided some shelter. Piss-stop on the ridgeline with snacks and drinks.

Hash circle under shelter of Pine trees. TTT members RV, Handle, JJ, Fraggle, Panicking and Corpuscle honoured for various permeations of the number 3 which is their magic number. More history of TTT from RV and then the circle was handed on to NZGM Birdtable and finally fines from the forest floor.

The evening saw various pockets of Hashes in pubs and restaurants round town.

Sunday was the Recovery run which started a the skate park and then to Firkin’s retreat for a PS. Arson (son of the late Firkin) outlined the plan for this Hash retreat in honour of his Dad.

Glorious day and so to the Ferry for return sailing and one last Ditch run.

Aftermath was a number of Hashers testing positive for Covid. Hopefully they all recovered.

Thanks to TTT for an enjoyable weekend. The main workers seemed to be RV and Panicking from TTT with assistance from Omo (driver) and High Heels (shopping)

Organisers were members of the Wellington Hash. ABC, Tripod, High Heels, He’ll Keep, Porkbox, DT and Hash Brown, with trail setting and other assistance from Shortplanx and Xerox.

For the committee the weekend started off on the Thursday with a trailer load of food, craft beer and wine delivered to the Camp chiller and kitchen. Followed by a night at the Waiotapu Tavern watching a local pool competition. Friday morning was the big buy up in Rotorua of more food, cider and beers. Then into the camp and welcoming 8 hashers, keen for a 3 night stay. There were also hash gatherings in Taupo and Rotorua at Xerox’s place.

1pm Saturday was the main gate opening and Hashers flooded in throughout the afternoon, with banners and balloons for Perky’s 70th birthday centre of attention.

Saturday evening had the drinks and food flowing with entertainment aplenty with a multitude of Hash musicians from all over the motu. The South Islanders also had a large Jenga game plus another game involving the throwing of ball string things at railings – ladder ball ?. Both these games were put to very good use on both Saturday and Sunday nights. Late night savouries and mouse traps proved very popular from head chef Tripod.

Sunday was the main Hash run with Shortplanx heading off early with bags of sawdust accompanied by Dupch and Budgie. Xerox was not in a fit state for 12km of trail checking.

At 11am the run started after instructions from Shortplanx. Unsurprisingly the vast majority of Hashers did the walk and short walk. All trails led to Kerosene Creek where the WHHH barbeque trailer Tammy awaited with sizzling sausages and drinks for lunch. Swimming in the hot springs was also popular and then a 2km walk back to camp.

The Circle was directed by NZGM Birdtable with assistance from her secret RA’s Hornie, FckingFeefifofum and Lipsplitter. Then a multitude of fines from the floor and a rousing variety of down down songs.

Then into the evening with dinner, drinks and Cocktail party. Games music and into the small hours some strange game that involved Hashers swapping clothes.

Monday was the usual wrap up with a hearty breakfast followed by the recovery run round the campsite. This featured the last chance to catch Covid with 50 hashers cramming into one cabin for a cosy circle !!

We also had updates on Interhash Queenstown from Bluevain and NZ Nash Hash from Toyboy.

Volunteers were called for for Nomad 2023 with none forthcoming.

However Likka offered himself and Daisy for 2024 which would be the 20th anniversary of the first Nomad that the 2 of them organised.

As a post script it appears that this Nomad was indeed a super spreader Covid event. Birdtable had counted 36 hashers positive by Friday and hosted a Zoom circle on the Saturday. Feefifofum’s estimate was 2/3.

But as Mimi commented, “feeling crap for a few days but then good to go for Matariki “

Blackball - 10th Event 18-20 March 2022

10 years of Blackball(s)!

Blackball 2022 was another fantastic weekend organised by hosts Wee Knackers and Philup.

With 72 hashers registered, this 10 year anniversary run was the largest yet. Quite a difference to the 2012 event when Christchurch hashers camped in Philup’s and Wee Knackers’ garden.

As modern hashers do, most people parked their campers and other non-tent sleeping facilities at either the Hilton (formerly known as) or the backpackers, with a few experienced attendees taking advantage of the unusually quiet hall.

The weekend started en route from Christchurch with stops at the Sheffield pie shop and Lake Brunner pub. Then on to Blackball where the hashers doubled the town population.

Friday night was mainly at the Workingmen’s Club, where the beers flowed, the op shop became a formal runway and supper was served.

Saturday morning was a slow start but once the sun came out, hashers were raring to go. In traditional hash fashion, a lengthy run briefing demonstrated the markings that might be encountered on the run accompanied by detailed instructions that were promptly forgotten.

After a false start for the runners, the pack regrouped and runners and walkers alike headed to the stream, heckling the Larikin cricket players on the way.

The first river crossing was a piece of for the pack of experienced hashers, even the slippery bits didn’t phase the pack.

The next bit, an onerous walk up a dry river bed found the pack in desperate need of refuelling beer.

When an obvious OP was passed with no beer, a tedious uphill climb through gorse and ferns was really just a walk in the park for the experienced pack.

Finally, finally, finally the PS was reached with plenty of well-earned beers and RTDs waiting.

After well drawn out PS, it was choose your own trail On Home. Something about going either straight over the false trail back into town or right into the bush for another hash adventure.

Those opting for the hash adventure route were rewarded with a hill climb with a great 360 view and old mine workings.

Eventually the pack regrouped at the domain where lunch and beer was served with a cricket game for entertainment. A fine circle was held and then the pack dispersed for showers, naps, sex and beer.

The evening festivities were split between the Hilton (formerly known as) and the Workingmen’s Club.

Sunday morning brought sore heads, foggy memories, brekkie and a short wreckovery walk to the mine memorial.

After another drawn out fine circle, hashers grudgingly dispersed back to all parts of NZ with promises of returning next year and see you soon at NOMAD, Winter Camp or both or neither.

THANK YOU Wee Knackers and Philup for another great weekend.

Also thank you to STD and Dingaling for their silent support leading up to and during the weekend.
