I
was asked to take the minutes of the 573 Hash due
to the absence of the normal scribe Olivier. Unaccustomed as I am to actually
paying any sort of attention during the Hash circle (sorry but its true) I
agreed to do so as the promise of a chair to sit on was too tempting. I apologise in advance if any names are incorrect but here
goes nothing:
After
a very muddy and hilly hash the grandmaster thanked the hairs for their valiant
efforts in setting a trail which proved to be full of ups and downs (mainly ups
I may add). Thank goodness the weather held off and apart from muddy legs
overall the trail was well set and relatively easy to follow. However, the
circle started rather late due to some people getting lost and having to be
brought back by truck. I heard a rumour that they
were German and although you may be doing well in the football getting lost on
the hash is a cardinal sin and I would have liked to have seen some strong
punishment there. If for nothing else than they beat England
in the football.......again.
After
everyone was computed the GM, looking
as fetching as ever, introduced the 4 newcomers
Gerald
Ramsay
Lady
in red (sorry forgot your name)
Gavin
All
agreed they would come to the hash again although Gerald and Ramsay said they
would prefer to do half a hash (WHAT) and Gavin would come again in 9 years
time?????????
The
second timers received their usual down down and were
christened as now being fully fledged hashers.
The
Religious Advisor (RA) then began his customary lecture by handing out sweets
to the poor England supporters in order to soften the blow of England's exit
from the world cup. The RA recounted a very disturbing story of a friend of his
who had an unfortunate stammer due to a
rather large ' whatsit' (isn't that some sort
of crisp). The only cure apparantly was to have a
transplant of a much shorter one. The ' whatsit' in
question was 15inches long and a much shorter one was required to cure the
stammer. I would like to point out at this point that several lady
hashers agreed that they could have easily put up with a stammer and that 15inches seemed a pretty average size!. The
operation was a success and the hasher in question was cured of his stammer.
Unfortunately Mrs ? was non
too happy with his new appendage and refused to you know what more than once
every 3 weeks. When the patient asked his doctor for a reverse operation the
doctor surprisingly refused and surprise surprise now
had a stammer himself !!!!!!!
The
moral of this story being be thankful for what you have.
Going
back to the football again the RA was very upset to see 2 hashers blatantly
supporting teams that were OUT of the world cup and insisted they be dealt with
severely. The two teams in question were Argentina and the USA. The shameless
hashers were publicly flaunting the words Argentina and the USA across their
chests and had to be stopped. Veronica and Rey SHAME ON YOU.
However, we will let Rey off as it was after all the 4th July Independence
today so as long as he doesn't wear it again during football season all is
forgiven.
The
hash hostage appears to be still at large with whereabouts unknown so no new
hostage was selected, The circle was therefore
concluded with an important announcement.
Announcement:
The next Hash Bash will be at Geo's restaurant
in Black River on 24th July. Tickets will be on sale next week
and on the door of the 24th. Prices 350 rupees for hashers
and guests 700 rupees. You are free to bring your own booze or softies
and there will be dancing and music. No young children please as this is an
evening event starting at 18:30 (ie evening
for the benefit of the hasher who seemed to think we are all stupid enough
to get up at the crack of dawn and start drinking)
