Editor’s Notes:

The hashing world lost a star with the passing of Elen Oblea “Hungry Bum” Marshment on 7 February 2013. Elen was one of the nicest ladies to come to the hash anywhere. She graced us all with her presence wherever she went in Hong Kong, Singapore, Manila, Bangkok and Honolulu. Most would agree that Elen was the best

thing that ever happened to her husband, Boobalube. The truth is that she was one of the best things that happened to any of us who were truly blessed to know Elen during her all too short time among us.

In the earthly cycle of life there is birth, life and death. A baby girl was just born to two proud Bangkok Full Moon H3 parents. A new hash was also recently “launched” in Nha Trang, Vietnam. Hopefully both the baby and the NTH3 will have many years of good times ahead.

Talk about good times, have you ever hashed in Brussels? Many hashers from around the world plan to partake in the Brussels Blowout in 2014, but read about Brussels hashing in 2013 to wet your whistle.

Another band of merry revelers are the Pirates of the Cari-beer-run at the Jolly Roger H3. There’s nothing like a jolly roger, so read the story and find out why.

Hashing is re-emerging from underground status in Okinawa. Might there be a visit to the Okinawa Hash in your future?

For the hardest core hashers, the 8th PHHH International Hash Challenge comes up again this March. With over 40 teams now registered this should be an amazing event this year. If that’s not enough to keep you happy, there is always the River Kwai Adventure Race or the hundreds of other HHH and running events on the calendars.

Happy Hashing and I hope to see you on trail soon,

The hash community has lost another stalwart hasher who has passed on to the great on on. Elen ‘Hungry Bum’ Marshment passed away officially on 7 February

2013 from a cerebral aneurysm at the young age of 53. While the condition probably developed over the last year, the doctor stated that based on the location of the aneurysm it would have been inoperable even if detected early. At the end of the day, Hungry Bum was able to enjoy the past year hashing, running, and travelling worry free – other than taking care of her hashing husband KC ‘Boob a Lube’ Marshment, which for those of you who know him, is quite a chore.

Brussels is the capital of Europe where hashing is truly international. The Brussels Manneke Piss H3 (BMPH3), the most well-known

Belgian Hash, has a very international make-up and takes every opportunity to celebrate it. Theme runs for various national days and other events are the norm. There are runs for St. George, St. Patrick, St. Nicolas, 4th of July, Halloween, Bastille Day, Belgian National Day, and the list goes on. There are city runs to check out the Art Nouveau Architecture, the colourful cartoons painted on the side of buildings, the Kings’ Palaces and the incomparable Grand Place, the most beautiful square in Europe. The Brussels Hashers are also blessed with the magnificent Foret de Soignies on the edge of town, with the forest and the abundant

Pirates of the

Cari-beer-runBy Sean Gilmour

Since their founding in 2003, the Jolly Roger H3 of the Tampa Bay, Florida area have been destined to raise their black flag over ocean waters. These “pirate invasions” on

commercial cruise liners are conducted each year in celebration of their anniversary. Most recently the JRH3 ventured on a seven-day voyage to destinations including Cozumel, Mexico, Belize, Roatan, Honduras, and Grand Cayman.

Clearly hashers are not simply looking for the amenities that would satisfy the ordinary tourist. On-board ship entertainment and carny excursions at destinations just won’t do. Aboard the ship the
