A WARM WELCOME FROM TVH3

Welcome to the Teign Valley Hash House Harriers of glorious South Devon. You are guaranteed a warm welcome and a great hash experience. We are the 'Party Hash' and we run from pubs all over Torbay, Dartmoor and the Teign Valley every Monday evening at 7.15pm. Our trails are marked with flour, chalk or sawdust and take in woodland, streams, byways, bridle paths and rolling countryside. We cater for all abilities, you needn't worry about keeping up, a leisurely walk with others or a good paced run if you're fit - you choose. The run duration is anything from 30 minutes to an hour and the distance is normally between 3-6 miles depending on whether you decide to take a short or long trail. Your first run is free, so come along and give it a go! After the run hashers enjoy a drink and food in the pub. On many occasions, the pub will lay on a 'Hash Menu', food specially for hashers.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR FIRST HASH

Starts soon after 7:15 pm each Monday.
The Grandmaster will gather the hash together in a circle and welcome Virgins & Visitors to TVH3 and inform the group of pertinent news or upcoming events.
Hares will announce details or the trail, number of long and short splits and regroups.

 Down-Downs - sometimes at the circle but usually in the pub after the run. Hashers and harriets (lady hashers) have a half pint and under age hashers have a soft drink or water. If you are driving, just ask the RA for water.

A Down-Down is a means of punishing, rewarding, or merely recognizing an individual for any action or behavior. Once awarded, the downdown must be drunk without pause, otherwise the RA may take action!

Individuals may be recognized for outstanding service, or for their status as a visitor or newcomer.

Down-Downs also serve as punishment for misdemeanours real, imagined, or blatantly made up.

Such transgressions may include: wearing new shoes, pointing with a finger, or the use of real names rather than hash names.

 Hash Names

The use of real names (nerd name) during an event is discouraged, and members are typically given a new "hash name," usually in deference to a particularly notorious escapade, a personality trait, or their physical appearance.

Members are named after attending the hash on several occasions or if something noteworthy occurs to prompt a naming.

Other hashers may share stories or observations about the individual, with the final name being chosen by general consensus from all suggestions put forward by the hash.

NEWCOMERS TO THE HASH
Completely new to hashing? Don't know what to expect? Worried, shy or nervous? You needn't be as all newcomers or virgins as they are known, will receive a warm welcome. When the hashers are called to make a circle - about 7:15 pm each Monday, the Grand Master will welcome all hashers and after various notices about forthcoming events etc are dealt with, he will ask if there are any visitors from other hashes or virgins present. You will be asked to come forward and be introduced to the hash. A tip to remember, don't wear new trainers as these are frowned upon by the RA (Religious Advisor) and will incur a sprinkling of flour over them. That's all there is to it and you can then step back and enjoy the run and the social get together after in the On Down (the pub). Whatever your pace, there are certain to be others who will keep you company along the trail. Walk, jog or run - it's up to you.
Hashing is all about making friends and having fun, so just turn up any Monday and have a go.

Last Chance Trail 2013....

Mon December 30th: Newfoundland Way CP, OD Teign Cellars East Street, Newton Abbot. After laying all those trails throughout 2013, it was very unfortunate that Poacher was unable to lay this one at the very last minute, but Archangel stepped in to re-do the trail that he had planned weeks earlier.
As he was still out laying at Circle time it was my pleasure to welcome the pack to The Last Chance Trail of 2013 which included one male “Virgin” brought along by UBend .The Run started almost a chaotically as it did last time from here, as Manpig identified a faded car park exit arrow as the trail taking half the pack off in the wrong direction! (this was duly noted for a later!) The correct well marked trail led us along Wolborough Street, up alleyways, hills, through undergrowth on narrow footpaths to the high ridge overlooking the town with the excellent sight of all the Christmas lights shining out brightly
below us. Archangels trail turned out to be almost the reverse of his last planned run as we passed through Wolborough church yard but no bells ring this time! We were soon heading through Decoy woods where although it was possible to avoid the water for some time eventually it was “wall to wall” so a good time to wash off all that mud! Only to get even muddier slipping and scrambling across the fields later! Thankfully we were on road (sorry Rambo) with chance to pick up speed as we headed back towards the Car Park.
The Teign Cellars was busier this time, but the landlord was happy to supply us with some excellent sausages and chips and a wide choice of beers.
The offenders from the evening were then given their DD’s, as reported by Bluebird.  With his School background Rambo pointed out to me a large Periodic Table chart on the wall of the pub?? this one did not refer to Chemical Elements it showed Beer Styles probably much easier to remember?     On On into 2014    Winfield

A very Happy New Year to you all.... here's the report from Mon December 30th: Newfoundland Way CP, OD Teign Cellars East Street, Newton Abbot. After laying all those trails throughout 2013 it was very unfortunate that Poacher was unable to lay this one at the very last minute, but well done to Archangel who stepped in to re-do the trail that he had planned weeks earlier. As he was still out laying at Circle time it was my pleasure to welcome the pack to "The Last Chance Trail" of 2013,which included one male “Virgin” brought along by UBend, the Run started almost a chaotically as it did last time from here, as Manpig identified a faded car park exit arrow as the trail, taking half the pack off in the wrong direction! (this was duly noted for later!) The correct well marked trail led us along Wolborough Street, up alleyways, hills, through undergrowth on narrow footpaths, to the high ridge overlooking the town with an excellent view of all the Christmas lights shining brightly below us. Archangels trail turned out to be almost the reverse of his last planned run as we passed through Wolborough church yard, but no bells ring this time!

The Teign Cellars was busier this time, but the landlord was happy to supply us with some excellent sausages and chips and a wide choice of beers. The offenders from the evening were then given their DD’s to the amusment of the locals, as reported by Bluebird below here. Later Rambo with his School background pointed me in the direction of a large Periodic Table Chart on the wall of the pub?? This one did not refer to Chemical Elements it showed Beer Styles and probably these may be much easier to remember??? "On On" into 2014 Winfield
TEIGN CELLARS DD'S: That rarest of sights - Doris taking a DD, this a mini tipple of a delicious stout which was lauded by all who sampled it. A vast array of ales on display making it Newton Abbot's answer to the Crown and Sceptre in St Marychurch. Truly a hash friendly venue for TVH3.

WEEKLY SUBS PAYERS

It would be appreciated if those hashers that pay £1 a week when they attend rather than the £30 a year subscription could bring their one pound to the circle and pay Pisswell before the run. It is not much fun for her to chase hashers in the pub for payment. Many thanks for your cooperation. 🙂
