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.

TVH3 The words for 3rd March 2025


The lion sleeps tonight!(Rora) Hash number 2065
Who wuz hare: Pisswell
Who wuz there:
Bee flicker, Beefy, Pisswell, Strap on, Strap dancer, Slip on me, Shitfaced, Manpig, Coldtits, Smellie, Warmfront, Pyscho, Red rum, Sarah, Forrest, Pocket Rocket, Miss Mash, Smash, Miss Inn, Able Seaman
The circle:
The GM welcomed hashers to the circle.
He asked Smellie to remind us of next weeks hash but then delighted in reminding her as he will be involved! (details later)
Miss Inn was awarded her 50 run badge as she was likely to be Miss Inn from the pub again later.
The hare gave details of the 5m Long, 3m Short and 2m walkers trail, 2 long/shirt splits and laid on the right. She warned of the large animals in the woods, possibly released from the Ark as Mt Ararat is nearby! She had seen evidence of large animals in the Forrest and went to check the route was safe, leaving the FRBs and others to handicap themselves by eating her pancakes!
And then they were off, with Red Rum making a late start but soon catching up as they entered the sand school at Rora. Definitely some evidence of large animals here. The longs had to have 3 clear rounds before exiting. Forrest took a nasty fall but sadly was very uncollected, and therefore incurred so many points he had to continue until all the jumps were on the ground and could be stepped over! Pyscho tried to run out at the first but after regaining her seat galloped off on left with a rosette in her hair! The crowd were wild and there was much neighing and roaraing. I have never seen show jumping quite like it!
The trail: sing along!
.
The Lions Sleeps Tonight SONG (Official Lyrics Video) Lyrics Video
Intro
(A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh
A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh) x2
In the woodland, the Rora woodland
The hashers run tonight
First the show ring, the clear round jumping
The hashers jump in fright!
(A-weema-weh, hare whips away, A-weema-weh, you try to neigh!
A-weema-weh, go clear, you say? A-weema-weh, all hell to pay!) x2
Long, short split now, the lion hunt now
The lion sleeps tonight
Ramshorn down now, the walkers hunt now,
But ready for the fight!
(A-weema-weh, the hares great lay! A-weema-weh, and now which way?
A-weema-weh, what a great day, A-weema-weh, you find your way) x2
Sing High!
(Wee heeheeheehee weeoh, rest run away
Wee heeheeheehee they split away) x2
Hush, the short trail, don't fear, it’s Rora
The lion sleeps tonight
Rush the Longs though, don't fear, Penn woodland,
You’re sure to see the lights!
(A-weema-weh, Ramhorns the way, A-weema-weh, view point will say!
A-weema-weh, lions at bay!, A-weema-weh, are you ok?) x2
(Last weehee!)
(R..O..A..R…….A quickrun away
R..O..A..R………A quick shout Mayday! ) x2
The Out takes:
The Hare got a bit lost shortcutting to her planned check point!
Well done Shorts and Walkers for your exciting checking! Too many checks, Shitfaced?
Forrest was blooded with his repaired metal shoe losing traction on the mud!
I’m not sure many did their intended trail! Hey ho!
Lovely panoramic plaque view point at Ramshorn down
Loopy bracken circle was fun?
And then on to the Welcome stranger for down downs.
No food was ordered as people were still full of pancakes!
First award was from Wet Johnny and given to Forrest for his amazing lack of show jumping ability! A note to Harvey Smith…
Next Slip on me received a down down for not being able to get out of her new car with all its new gadgets! Was it a Smart car or a dumb car? Was it the car or was it the driver?
Next……..what Pyscho again? No Beefy pushed her aside and asked for her to nominate someone else so that her 28th down down record could be terminated. Unfortunately/ fortunately he was then chosen to take the down down, so here’s to the purist…..
And lastly to the hare, Pisswell. Thanks all for coming.
Next week: A hash BBQ, at Only here for the beer’s farm in Stoneycombe and helped by Shitfaced and Cheerio Beerio. On on to next week.
Ps A garmin watch has been found at Rora. Anyone lost one/want to buy one?

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. 🙂
