Friday 27th November

Pub Golf . - 6 pubs over about 5km formed the course for Pub golf with hashers divided into teams of 3 or 4 and sent off with scorecards. Pints were the drink of choice, with one skull being a hole in one. Weather added an extra dimension as the formerly warm sunny day turned into a cold windswept rainy evening. More than one Uber was called upon for the less clothed. The free barbeque at Gasworks was very popular. The 6th and final hole was Seatoun RSA where a supper was served. Drinking into the night. All the old Hash books on display

Saturday 28th

11am 2000th run. Cold front had passed through and it was a lovely Wellington day. Although numbers looking thin until a few vehicles rolled in with various hashers stumbling out looking the worse for wear. Recycled Virgin welcomed the Hash and gave instructions on the 3 options for the day - Walk (Hare – Handle), Long run (Corpuscle) and Ballbreaker (RV). The usual mixed messages. More confusion on the run as the runners tried to sort out which was the BB and which was the LR. Eventually it was about 14km for the BB and 12k for the LR with the walkers doing much less and being at the Breaker Bay PS (and lunch) well before the runners trickled in. Lunch and beers with the initial supplies running out and emergency rations whistled up. Back to Seatoun RSA and circle up. RV ran the circle with the Committee acknowledged and the various Capital weekly awards given out before a representation of RA’s - Sharkey, Mimi, Shunter, Rigid, Toyboy, Sir Creamalot had a go before fines from the floor. Songs led by Fire, Hornie and MB. The evening consisted of the usual Hash frivolity interspersed by dinner and rugby watching. A couple of Hash jukeboxes.

Sunday 29th

Recovery run and circle which went ahead after another night cold front has passed through. Well done Capital hash. 2000 runs completed in just over 39 years.
