Year: 2017

Hash #1005 was on 4th November 2017 at Maran Pasture, Maran, St John. The hare for the week was “Saber Tooth” assisted by “Grandad“.

There were 3 trails, a short walk, long walk and a runners trail. Due to the torrential downpour in Gouyave that morning, mud, mud and more mud was in abundance on all the trails. “Mucky Drawers” not only returned with mucky drawers but with mud in her eyebrows (not sure how that happened).

Fortunately hashers all seem to enjoy mud and there were no complaints about the trails. Our hashmaster “Grab De Pussy” was back on duty this week and ensured that all the virgins were properly de-virginised and given their certificates.

Unfortunately he could not catch Jawise for his birthday wishes – Oh well – there is always next week.

Thanks all for another great hash.

Hash #1004 was held on  28th October 2017 at Clarkescourt Boatyard, Woodlands, St George. The hares for the hash were “Wet Lettuce” and “Peak Freak“.

There were four trails a short walk, walkers, runners and a long runners. The long runners trail was fantastic and I heard everyone else say that the other trails were great too – the only complaint was too many thorns (well you can’t blame the hares for that).

Tyrone was lucky enough to celebrate his birthday at the hash but unlucky in that his dear friends arranged to give him a hash birthday cake. The recipe of which is: 1 x birthday hasher, 2 bags flour, a few raw eggs, 1 malt, some warm caribs and a little whipped cream if you have it.

A fun afternoon & evening, thank-you hares for the super trails and hash.

Hash #1003 was held on 21st October 2017 at First Beach, Fort Jeudy, St George. The hare for the week was “Dominatrix” and was assisted by “Double Entry“.

After 2 weeks of solid rain, the clouds cleared just in time for the hash. There was a runner and a walkers trail. Unfortunately being in Fort Jeudy a fair portion of the trail was on road but at least there were a few beach and bush sections too – along with the obligatory mud.

“SS Useless” was acting hashmaster for the day and he finally gave Patrick his new hash name, he will no longer have the ultra cool and manly hash name of “Jack Sparrow“. As he was spotted doing the Rum Shop Crawl hash while carrying an umbrella, he has now been awarded the super new hash name of “Mary Poppins“, which I am sure he will wear with pride.

Other than a small cloud burst after the hash, we were lucky enough with the weather for everyone to enjoy the food, drink & music after the hash. Thank-you “Dominatrix”.

Hash #1002 was held on 14th October 2017  at Ozone Bar, Providence, St David. The hares for the day were Robby, assisted by “Girl Guide” and “Respect de Banana“.

Well the day started off with pouring rain and it stopped and started for the rest of the day, ensuring that only the die-hard hashers and/or the slightly crazy were at the hash. There were at least 100 hashers that braved the elements and about 17 virgins. On On was shouted out a few minutes after a huge downpour.

There was a runners & a walkers trail, although with all the rain a lot of the paper was washed away, so a few walkers did the end-half of the runners trail and most hashers lost and found the paper and trail numerous times through-out the hash. The trails were super with lots of bush, mud, river crossings and were enjoyed by all. It was one of the few hashes where “Are You” was shouted often by everyone – not because you wanted to know if you were on the correct trail but because you were lost.

“Girl Guide” escorted in the last of the stragglers after he had swept the trail twice and Simon Clay “AC/DC” the hashmaster for the day, got the virgin ceremony underway. “Jackie Chan” and “AC/DC” were wished happy birthday by their fellow hashers with the wizards sleeve, the dotty potty, warm Carib and an ice-cold bucket of water (“Anal Retentive” was that bucket from you?)

In spite of or maybe because of the rainy weather, great fun was had by all. Thank-you hares for another fantastic hash.

Hash #1001 was held on 7th October 2017 at Marilyn Nicklas bar, Mt. Rose, St Patricks. The hare for the day was “Crisis”.

The overcast, rainy and thunderstormy weather kept a few hashers home, but for those that braved the elements and drove up to St Patricks – we were all pleasantly surprised with no rain. “Crisis” set two wonderful trails which although had some fun slippery muddy sections – they were safe, fun and runnable for the most part.

“AC/DC” stood in as hashmaster while “Grab De Pussy” was away and he managed to get through both all the speeches and ceremonies without swearing at anyone!

After the virgins had had their ceremony and received their de-virginsation certificates,, Adrianna was given a hash farewell and Kelly “Rear Entry” Henry was brought forward to be wished Happy Birthday. When we realised that “Rear Entry” had the sneaky foresight to shave his head just in case he was given a hash birthday cake – well we could not disappoint him. “Rear Entry” was wished happy birthday in true hash style with beer, flour, eggs, whipped cream and a candle!

Good music, drinks, food and a break in the rain ensured a good after hash lime. Thank-you “Crisis” for a wonderful hash.

Hash #998 was held on 16th September 2017 at the Kings Residence, Cabier, St Andrew. The hare for the hash was Lucy Murchie “Doggy Style” assisted by the “Girly Crew”.

Hashmaster’s Report: Hash #998
Attendance: 205

Great, after last week’s romp amongst the mountains, it was nice to go on a rather “flat” hash. Well, Ok, there was a climb uphill near the start of the hash, but the rest of it was “relatively” flat. Relatively, of course, to the previous hashes. I ended up going on the Walker’s Trail this time around because a certain someone (I won’t mention any names, ok “Doggy Style”?) absconded with the sign for the Runners’ Trail (more on that later) before I reached the turnoff point. So, the trail was short, but very nice, and included a small beach section too, which was interesting, because I was told that there would be a beach section for us to do a little cleanup campaign, and then I was told that there was not going to be a beach section, and then suddenly, we end up with a beach section. Confused? Yup, I was too, but a couple of hashers still walked with their garbage bags, so we managed to do the cleanup as planned.

Hash #997 was held on 9th September 2017 at Radix Park, Mt. Parnassus, St. George and the hare for the day was “Respect De Banana”.

Hashmaster’s Report: Hash #997
Attendance: 181

Well, yes. No hills, eh “Respect De Banana”? That whole hash was a series of hills, no MOUNTAINS. I can’t remember any part where I wasn’t either going down at a 45-degree angle, or going up at the same angle, if not more. Thankfully it was not a long hash! It was just the right length in fact (referring to the Runner’s Trail). Very well done, though I suspect that me and the rest of the hashers have cut a groove into the side of one of those hills with the amount of mud we managed to remove with our shoes. Yes, well done indeed.

Some other things:
1.It was a happy 60th birthday for “Short Prick” (no, I’m not going into how he got that name) last week Sunday, so of course we had to celebrate it hash-style. So, I enlisted the help of six hash (slightly-used) virgins to help with the task. Here’s to many more, “Small Prick”. Birthdays, that is 😊.
2.Birthday celebrations for “Cow Tail” and “SatNav” as well. And you thought you got away…. Tsk tsk…

3.The Karma Bus finally arrived for “Anal Retentive”, who had been treating poor hashers who were receiving down-downs to what I’m going to call the “Karim Maneuver” – the dumping of a cold beer down the hasher’s back. Well, just like Monsieur Joseph-Ignace Guillotin eventually got to experience the device he helped to dreamed up, it was time for “Anal Retentive” to be treated to the move he’d been inflicting on others. Oh, and someone added ice – nice move 😊.

Next week we’re in Cabier.
On-on!
