Next Run Sunday 2nd August 2009

Our next run will be held at Walton Bridge on Waterworks Road The Gap, starting from the parking area next to the police station adjacent to the bridge. Starts at 4PM. UBD138 B 20.

Please email samfordhhh@yahoo.com if you would like to attend as a guest to assist with catering, as it is compulsory that you be well fed!! The ON ON this week will be under shelter in the parkland adjacent to the parking area. Hares will be Mango King & Hot Lips.


Last weeks run held on Sunday July 26 at Bowman Park Bardon was led (some flatlenders thought) by Sherpa Tensing Norgay in the ascent of Mount Everest, contrary to the unspeakable lies from the Hares that it was all to be on flat ground, and that the only hills were holographic aminations produced by the latest Hasher technology. But it was actually a different Sherpa and a lesser mountain!

Twenty two keen Hashers (and a dog on a lead) completed the course marked by the Hares Skidmark and Sherpa, through the leafy streets and parks of Bardon and then up, up Mt Everest. Skillful setting of the trail with numerous checks and false trails, in the best traditions of real HHH, slowed down the FRB's for a while, until altitude sickness began to take its toll on the flatlanders, and those who haven't done enough Hashing recently to keep up to speed.

A drinks stop at a check on the peak (not actually Everest where the TV towers are, but a lesser holographically produced little hill, K2 I think it was) thoughtfully provided by the Hares, who had earlier hauled it all up in backpacks, revived most of the pack before the descent.

A few SCB's were seen on several parts of the trail, which all know is OK, (but only if it is not detected), and although allowed to go unpunished at present, full details were recorded in our comprehensive database, and might form the basis of Hash Crimes on summons, - when the weather is warmer and more conducive to the dispensation of delayed liquid justice.

Then followed the ON ON with jokes and drinks all round, before a delicious tender steak and sausage BBQ served with coleslaw salad and rolls. Then cookies "with blocks of chocolate inside", one Hasher remarked.

Visitors were informed that it is a HASH CRIME to go away from a SHHH.Inc. Hash hungry, so they all supped splendidly until all were replete, to put it in genteel terms, so as not to offend any persons of unusually delicate sensibilities.

It was a very good turn out seeing this was only our third Hash run since SHHH.Inc was started. We were delighted to have all our visitors and hope that some will come again soon and may wish to join our growing band of real Hashers.

Run Report 19th July 2009
Event: Mulled Wine Release Vintage 2009
Hares: Stubby and Schnapps
Where: Wahminda Park, Samford Road, Ferny Grove
After promising to start on time the pack got away at 4.05, delayed by catching up with old friends and new faces.
We started down the stream then crossed up a steep slope to a check that was tough enough for the whole pack to work there way up the loose slope before being called on back. The pack was now on single track along the stream, walkers and runners mixed together before stringing out on to the road and then onto the old railway line. A couple of checks bought the packs back together and gave Whippet and Skidmark a good chance to fruitlessly climb the hills.
A mid run walker - runner split gave the runners an extra loop but both packs magically rejoined at the hill prior to crossing Samford Road and a long downhill loop back to Lomandra picnic area and under the road and home.

Pack was warmed by a supply of Gluehwein and more than ample veg and pasta bake.

A quiet circle, hares were thanked for a good run, details of next weeks run and a green award for Hot-Lips for recycling of old jokes.
Next week everyone come prepared with a new joke.

First Run of SHHH.Inc. 12 July 2009




Run Report 12th July 2009
Event: Start of hashing with “Inc”
Hares: HRH Mango King and Hotlips
Where: Parkland Upper Kedron Rd/Samford Rd
Scribe: Schnapps


A pack of keen Hashoholics with no fear to sign in gathered around
their 4WD’s in the remote area of Upper Kedron to await the hares briefing.
The R’s and the W’s dashed into some familiar jungle of easements, houses and parks,
following the flour&chalk graffiti, the secret of the trail.
Up up, down, then left... who remembers?

Numerous checks were found with good calling and the W’s were out first – Yeah!
Refreshment of bubbles to celebrate this special run cooled us down down.
HRH M.K. & Hotlips took us to their Camp Mountain-Winter Palace to the ON ON “on fire”
-sorry, by the fire- where we spotted some more noisy bubbles, had a great choice of
'Impossible Pies' , free grog and jokes to finish.

Thanks hares, great job.
