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.

THE CHRISTMAS RAFFLE RUN....

Thirty plus Hashers circled up for our 1773rd Run with Hares Zoot and Hotlips at The Kings Arms Kingsteignton. Some were in Christmas attire as we headed off through the village towards Hackney Marshes. Here apparently two keen Hashers decided to take an alternative route and make own trail reach the Bell Inn!
While the rest of the pack followed the correct trail around the Race Course, where I found myself just about able to keep up with Wigwam and No69, but not Pollyfella who came hurtling by.
A mile or so later we emerged onto the Avenue at Newton Abbot, meeting up with Coldtitz also in her Christmas outfit.
To the busy passing traffic we must have looked like the Batman and Robin sketch from Only Fools and Horses as we pounded along in our fancy dress outfits then crossing the road at the B&Q roundabout.
At the Split here Coldtitz decided to go longer, towards Jetty Marsh, with an eye on her training time distance, while Wigwam and I decided the best option for us injured athletes! was to take the shortest route back to the pub. Discussing the problems facing Man. Utd after his Liverpool team beat us last Sunday. (possibly solved as Mourinho has been sacked today)
Tried to find out more about what happen on the Long Trail from S.M.Ellie but she wasn’t able to tell me much, although she had been there before was not really sure where it was!
Back at the OD the excellent raffle prizes had all been set up by Satnav, Able and Soapy, with the Pack surveying the possible choices spread out before them.
The tables rapidly cleared once the tickets were selected, with the final item a tub of cheese biscuits claimed by Wetfart, who was pleased to have it for....his dog! ?
The DDs were awarded to :-
MELLON PICKER the electrician! who has hopefully fixed Piltdowns faulty lamp.
ONLY HERE for the BEER who short cutted to another pub! Now proudly showing off his growing waist-line to Fallen Woman!
MANPIG & U-BEND our two Birthday Boys plus the wrong notes song!
HOT-LIPS who took one for the Hares excellent trail.
Well done both Hares for helping to make it excellent evening and WELL DONE to Satnav for selecting the prizes. Able and Soapy for controlling the draw.
On to next week back at The Kings Arms Kingsteignton with Wide Receiver
On-On
Winfield

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. 🙂
