CLOUD NINE HASH

We sadly share the news that Wayne “Crusha” Hall has died. While the cause of death is not known at the moment, it is understood to have been sudden and from natural causes.

Crusha was a career Hasher, running mainly with Chardonnay and Hobart (H4), where he was the current Grand Master. At Chardonnay he was on track to be the first to reach 1000 Runs with the club before deciding to head back to NSW. He later returned to Tasmania and, on 24 September this year, reached his 1000 Run milestone with Chardonnay.

Our thoughts go out to his family and those who held Crusha dear.

Another Hasher joining the Pack at Cloud 9 Hash.

It is expected that the Tasmanian Hash Community will have the opportunity to get together sometime soon to properly farewell Crusha. Details to follow.


RUN REPORT

Chardonnay’s Über and Unter Trail
5 November from Benjafield Park, Moonah
Hare: Uber
Run Reporter: Sonar

Approximately twenty Hashers turned up to Benjafield Park on a reasonable evening. Lots of kids playing in the park. After all the bullshit talk we paid for a $10 run because they wanted to get rid of the leftovers from the Fling.

Information about the trail was given we all set off around the back blocks of Moonah. One real runner in Maximus and two hobblers in Can’t Stop and myself; the rest walked trail. It was well marked for a change. Ha! Don’t know what happened on the walkers’ trail because they were all behind.

Back at the on on, Uber and rest who didn’t walk were cooking up the leftovers on the park barbecues. One would have thought to thaw the food out first. Well, they are Hashers after all. Snack Bar turned up with the hash barbecue and it was a nice comedy fest watching Uber and Snaky trying to light it.

Circle was had with everyone staying clear of all the germs brought back from ‘Rock the Boat’.

On on Sonar

Lips: Hands On and Uber

  • Hare: Uber (with assistance from Snack Bar). “Good trail.” “Much better than Lenah Valley.”
  • Snack Bar: won the male Fashions on the Field at the Melbourne Cup lunch. Best outfit for $7 from Salvos, with style assist from Fringe Benefits. Outclassed Can’t Stop, who paid real money for his loser outfit.
  • Can’t Stop: had to buy a new loser outfit because his old clothes no longer fit him.
  • Can’t Stop and Growler: went (along with Hands On’s partner, John) to a ‘Speed Mating’ (Mating, not Dating) activity on the cruise. The female:male ratio was 10:1, meaning that the boys were a hot commodity.
  • Metro: arrived early and spent most of that time on a bench near the playground. Suss much?
  • Spoof: spotted a local lady sitting off to the side and asked if she was a new Hasher. It turned out that she was from a local group home who thought that there was a community barbecue event happening. Spoof wanted to ask if she wanted a bit of his sausage.
  • Sonar: lost property (cap).
  • Xena: belated presentation of her 300 Run hat.
  • Tarzan’s Grope, Hands On and Spoof: far cough yak hunts. Tarzan’s Grope is off to Iran and Spoof only has a one way ticket, so we may not see either again!
  • C*untry members: Snyphalis, Hands On, Sonar and Tarzan’s Grope.
  • Prickit, Arsecutter, Can’t Stop, Hands On and Growler: returned from the plague ship, now spreading disease around the Hash.
  • TAP: told the visitor waiting for a bit of Spoof’s sausage that she had to go home.
  • In The Raw: had been looking for his reading glasses (that he says he doesn’t need) for three weeks. They were in the Hash Cash bag.

Skols from the floor:

  • Dyke to In The Raw: Tassie is a small place. Was walking the dog when it started to rain, so he sheltered under a tree to wait it out. (You’re not made of fairy floss!) Was joined by another guy and it turned out that he knew Spoof from caving, Can’t Stop from running and In The Raw from bushwalking. When it stopped raining and they went their separate ways, the other guy said “if you see Mick (aka ITR), tell him he’s still a fat c*nt!”

Next week’s trail:

  • The 2026 Chardonnay Cup from St John’s Park Bowls Club, as set by Growler. $20 run – food and PS supplied. Run reporter, In The Raw.
