By the time that I raise meh head Ah see some on the beach
Meanwhile the hashers through and through Had gone off on a run
But I know that I could do Without that morning sun.
Now some just taking it in stride Others playing it cool
While some gone for a boat ride To Buccoo Reef and Nylon Pool .
Now on this final morning Man trying to drink out beers
Farewells – hugging and kissing But I ent see no tears
Ah want to recognize Who help put on this show
Some of us don't realize This don't happen just so
Plenty hard working people Ah could'nt help but notice
To call names might cause trouble Because some might get missed.
So to you Iron Lady Tobago 2012 was great
And so from everybody We heartily congratulate.

| 821 | Oct 27, 2012 | The Casuals | Canoe Bay, Tobago | FRB (Front Running Bastard) |
Having missed the run hared by “The Dicks” on Friday, I was pretty eager to get in some good running before the night’s festivities. After a decent lunch, I got myself very well lubricated, as is customary, before a Saturday afternoon run. Some good banter with Betty & Lorin & some other hashers, and then I was all set!
The buses were on time, so everyone was all in tow for a ‘Casuals’ Run’. A short ride in good company & we arrived somewhere within the Canoe Bay estate for a “3 o’clock” run!! Hmmm., talk ’bout punishment for these hashers today. I figure the run time has something to do with the festivities planned for later on in the night, but, oh gosh…3 o’clock! The place was real hot! I actually considered finding some shade and waiting around for the moonlight run – but I may have been the only one on it! However, my relaxed disposition had me looking to catch up on some friendly exchanges in the meantime.
So we’re awaiting instructions from the hares – dressed like they’re about to venture on the “Tour de Tobago”. I wonder where are their bikes? Assuming the podium was a smug fella by the name of Ivan; who was spirited by the fact that the run would actually kick off at 3 o’clock exactly. No comment there. The pack was a sizable one by normal standards; a melting pot of different hashing nationalities – some runners, some walkers, some groupies. Five minutes later, and we were no doubt peremptorily hurried into the 3:00pm swelter.
On-On on the asphalt, off on to a trail, back on the asphalt; a false trail; up the road, then onto the trail again. We’re in the bush now – salvation from the sun above, but nonetheless a hot and humid afternoon. Some nice wide trails avail us hashers, with gullies to the side that reek of black muck. I personally had to test the consistency of the gully – a reminder that my long jumping skills are a bit rusty. Shortly into the run, there was no more pack, just the customary FRBs. There were some long false trails, but no great difficulty in locating the correct paths. We pass some livestock here and there and one seemingly large, placid adult male bovine. Fifty minutes later and we pass Francie and a group of hares – I would find out shortly afterwards that was the On-In. A decent stretch onto the beach area at Kilgwyn Bay would mark the end of this run.
Looking back when we were standing on the asphalt under the hot sun, it would have been difficult to put this run into perspective. But it was just what was needed for this pack on this day; a relatively short, free-flowing hash run. Great job by the hares!
The after lime was equally gratifying – with the draft beer van awaiting our arrival, Hash DJ already jamming the soca music. What more could a hasher ask for? Soon, mostly everyone took to the water – beer flowing freely. For me the highlight was the mood around – a real nice time being had by everyone.
Well not everyone – seems that the large domesticated ungulate mentioned a few paragraphs before; 
shall we say it was not so domesticated after all. One of the Surinamese hashers found out to his detriment. Guy got Poofter even after “getting bulled” – Ahh the life of a hasher….On On

| 821a | Oct 27, 2012 | Randall, David J, Victor, Hayden, Christine, Flash, Tall Boy and well maybe Ashas | Leilani Estate, Maracas Valley, St. Joseph,Trinidado | Not me |
I understand that A Flash Hash was the name given to this hash run as a result of two drinking (notice I did not say drunken) ladies cornering Flash, the week before a hashing Saturday and getting her to agree to set a run while the POSH3 was in Tobago. Flash has never done a hash far less set a hash! Not content with that achievement, they proceeded to look around for a suitable run site and hares with just over a week before the run….Robin and Randall were ‘volunteered’ – Hayden, Victor and David Jamison (story to follow) were lassoed in! Plans were in motion to set a hash in a flash with Flash..
I arrived at the run site on a beautiful Saturday afternoon to see the ladies sipping their drinks while food fuh so was being prepared. Music blasted from a sophisticated boom box/ amplifier and all around there was an atmosphere of …. well, not exactly a hash run.
The Leilani Estate is located amidst the lush forestry of the Maracas Valley, still one of the most beautiful valleys in Trinidad despite the development of recent years. The run site was river side and from all appearances we were in for a river lime!
The run was billed for 3pm but it seems that no one notices these things, so I had enough time to get into some of the gossip. Apparently Asha had been too hung over to get out of bed that morning to set the run, so aforementioned Jamison had dragged himself out after flying in from Dallas and Miami, arriving home after midnight the night before. He was presently still out setting the run and had looked like death when Christine had taken lunch time refreshments for the hares.
By 3.30pm, I looked around to see only a handful of people and thought to myself, well we have some good food to eat today – Curry goat, geera pork, chicken, saltfish cassava, accra – but then they started coming in. Enrique and his band of 7, Robert and Usha, Pinny and Reina, The Hale Group, Salma and the Sisters, two fit looking ladies, the BP connection, Wahid, Richard Sinatra, Risa, Nick and Virgin Molly, Boos, Mawer, …just to name a few.
Looked like this was indeed going to be a good lime….
The Hash Hush was called by Pinny…. wha d!…. Yes Pinny!……Hares were introduced and we were advised that this was to be considered a fun run despite the two headed snake that was encountered while setting the run.
Off we set along the road, down into the river for an early wet shoes and then back onto the road to a check on the corner. Christine was responsible for this first check and I saw her mischievous grin from her car window!
Back check back to the run site and we were off into the bush. Slipping and sliding over the river rocks we then clawed our way out of the river and then trekked along the Maracas waterfall trail up to the picnic area where once again we encountered the ladies sipping their drinks.
So where is the beer stop?
Not now we were told!
ON UP, climbing over rocks, but still enjoying the greenery. ON UP to the waterfall and a cooling dip at the falls. Beautiful.
There was only one way to go from there – ON DOWN, on the same trail!
As we headed down, we saw the walkers almost to the falls looking for a waterfall with a pool(?) Hayden had told them that they did not have to walk to the falls since there was another pool and waterfall without the long climb. Being Hayden, he had passed the trail down to those falls and the walkers had climbed almost the full length of the trail! Despite his name, he is clueless at hay’ den seek…..I know that is a bad one!
ON DOWN towards the other waterfall – a tricky narrow trail but so worth it. A cooling dip in the pool and we were once again ON ON.
Back at the picnic area, Christine and Flash had finally decided to open the beer cooler and feeling nice and refreshed we sipped our beers and proceeded ON IN.
Not the usual hash run since there was not much to be done with that terrain but we all agreed : it was a pleasant time, at a good location and the hares had done a fine job.
We were now ready for D LIME!
Down, Down time. Pinny assisted by Reina called the hash hush.
The hares, even Asha, took their down downs – Flash took her shot of rum!
Virgins: Partick, Marie and Darian came with Enrique but Molly preferred to just come with Nick!
Poofter nominations: Asha (of course), Hayden for misleading the walkers and Victor for sending the young boys to the waterfall in search of women bathing naked…
And it was Victor as Poofter.
Many thanks to Robin Bassant for providing the run site, the fantastic meal, Tall Boy and the cooks. More excuses for down downs!
Bellies full of curry, and coolers full of beer, we partied to Richard’s music until the moon shone over us and our coolers were empty…then headed out in search of bars!!!!
Not a bad way to spend a Hashing Saturday when almost the whole hash was in Tobago! We were not feeling that sorry for ourselves anymore!
ON ON

Tobago 2012……a weekend that would be remembered by all, each person having their own moment and experience, but Tobago 2011 is still clear as day to me, I remember at the Monster Ball the Saturday night when Eggie stood by my side with his hands folded and said Taz next year we have to do better than this and I said to myself how could you possibly do better, but you know when people are highly motivated and supported the impossible becomes possible. My support team from the travel agency, the bus drivers, Reed, Gizelle, Colin, Spuds, Cyril, Betty, Peter, Francie from Barbados, Paul from Suriname, Latchmie from Guyana, Andre (beerman), Andrew (chef), Nigel (Dj), The Big Dicks, The Casuals, the hash silent corporate sponsors, Eric and Marita, Robert Bermudez, Sports & Games, Trinrico, Martin, Pradeep, Arthur, Tiza, my daughter and my darling Ashe……you made it happen….Thank You…..it is because of you guys we had great runs, good after hash limes, delicious food and cold beers. Special thanks to our Trini hashers who kept the POSH flag flying high while we were in Tobago.
Poofter:…Zameer Ali for not knowing his priorities and going to golf with Matt and then coming to the hash to lime.

| 803 | Mar 17, 2012 | Hash Hotties (Teheli,Marita,Shawna, Janelle and Taz) | Arima | Tall, Dark & Havesome |
Having been around the POSHHH for approximately 20 something years I thought I had seen/heard it all. Hashers running through corridors naked, dancing on bar counters, sleeping on deck chairs because their roommate was using the room, getting their head stuck in a freezer, skinny dipping in Tobago, moving an ‘X’ on a hash, stealing clothes of skinny dippers, climbing Johnstons gate with only a lifeguard’s marker flag to cover your manhood to retrieve stolen clothes, sleeping on Royal Castle bench at Crown Point.
So having had all these experiences it came as a complete shock to hear that a Hash had been moved. We have had the odd occasion where a hash was moved a couple hundred yards, quarter mile at most but to move a hash from Chaguaramas to Arima. This feat would have certainly needed assistance from Mootilal Moonan whose motto was/is “We move mountains”. T o add to this the movers were no ordinary bunch, it was actually the Iron Lady and her cohorts who go by the sobriquet of Hash Hotties.
Now we know that the Iron Lady’s theme song is “I have got the power” but this took real power to do this 5 days before the hash.
The run site was just north of the cemetery in the area referred to as Jones town. Jonestown a name that brings to mind a preacher and his followers. Was it that the Iron Lady had plans for her detractors? Was she going to send them to that big hash in the sky to meet those that have already gone. Could she be so tough? The Iron Lady commanded her followers to assemble at this place hopefully not to partake in spiked cool-aid.
On arrival at the site we were greeted by nubile bodies that gave men that come hither look as they directed the hashers where to park. This site was actually 150 yds from where the Arima possee set a run. The run in which a magistrate who was a hare got the poofter award never to be seen again. What ever became of the Arima Posse? The Arima guys are very proud and protective of their beloved borough and it’s environs and not just any and everyone could go there and set a run. So how did the Hotties get permission? We know for sure that Gerry did not give them permission. However when the Hotties were identified all was revealed. Okay guys do not get excited the Hotties did not go topless or anything like that. It became quite evident that the Hotties got permission during “pillow talk” as one of the Hotties has an erect sorry make that direct connection to one of the Arima Posse. Apparently she knows how to get to him or is it get him.
The hash hush was called and HM Ass introduced the Hares as four hotties and a “hurt he”. The he that got hurt was present, looking none the worst for his experience. The Hotties opened with a little dance routine and we were off. The reigning Calypso Monarch led us down the hill that we drove up to the run site and then off to the left. After 5 minutes into the run we came to what seems to be an occurrence on every hash. We got to a check (just after the point where a female calypsonian fell) and had trouble finding the trail and on enquiring from the accompanying hares we were told “I did not set this part of the run” Duhhhh!!!. So we milled around until the other hares with the backpack were heard calling off in the distance.
The trails were narrow so you travelled as fast as the person in front of you. The trails were very familiar and we eventually ended up in a river just before the ON IN. On reaching the ON IN some persons continued along the road instead of going up the hill on the left which led back to the runsite. These individuals ended up doing at lease another ten minutes. The trail however was challenging enough to build a sweat which is what is needed before downing some beers.
The Ass HM called the Hash hush and the hares had their down downs then the HM took over. Was this the point that she was going to offer a spiked beverage to persons she deemed deserving. Alas this was not to be, she simply got in to the down downs for those with new shoes and the Poofter award. One thing hashers can do is entertain themselves. So it was that a number of individuals decided to demonstrate their riding prowess or lack thereof on Ivan’s bike. Standing and observing brought to mind the saying “Monkey on Iron” but I am not quite sure why.
From the Office of the Iron Lady (I have got the Power)
We had a great time at the last run…..The Hash Hotties did aim to please all… we satisfied most…
Not bad for a group of virgins… well done girls!
This run was set by The Hash Hotties – the ladies who are the better halves of a dick, a bushewacker, a prick-ah-posse, a chinee and a man who does give iron. The run was originally to be in Chaguaramas, but as ladies only setting this run we encountered some challenges, so the Iron Lady sought guidance from the Minister of Sport and Youth Development and asked if we could have changed to another location and he advised that it could be done. So the Hash Hotties headed to Arima and the run was set, everybody commented how it was such a good run (except two persons) and two other persons said it was good, but we the chicks did it with a dick. Guys….we ladies can do anything men can do and even better…..Butts 2 Asses…..24/7….365….The Iron Lady
