Saigon Hash Newsletter (Repeat)

Hello ,

A mea culpa from your webmaster

We have a new website and, as the self-appointed webmaster, I sent out our newsletters through the new website. Big mistake. In true mismanagement fashion I checked that 95 hashers opened the email and was happy with it. Until, in the bus last Sunday, I was shouted at and told that about half of the bus never received their newsletter. Which they did not want to miss as it included the red dress run report. After much checking, we discovered most of them in the spam folders.

So, mea culpa, but not only that: while your webmaster knows desperately little about websites, we should thank the hash lord in heaven for linking me up with a clever high-tech friend, who isn't even a nerd, who tweaked, and hopefully beat, the system. To check if he truly did, you now receive this test newsletter, hopefully without any problem and without having to search your spam folder. 

This test, yes you are really guinea pigs, is a repeat of last week's newsletter, but with some changes as it is no good to give you "news" which now has become old hat. So check it out and wait for the next newsletter which you should get on Thursday. 

Finally, check out our new website. Among others, on the home page you can connect to many past newsletters. So, if you missed one, you now know where to go.

Next Run #1537: Sinterklaas run - SATURDAY 7/12/2019

This week’s run 1537 will be the run you've been waiting for all year. The Hares were salivating during the reccie, such a beautiful area, almost all single trails or no trails at all, and you will be served a run, a walk and a ballbreaker. So, get your running shoes out of the closet and join us this SUPER SATURDAY to not only celebrate the runs, but also Sinterklaas's birthday.

Yes, Sinterklaas will be there. He will not run, as Sinterklaas is a very old person, close to 800 years. But, despite the many years of experience, Sinterklaas is not too old to come to the circle in person.

And not only that, Sinterklaas has been saving all year to be able to invite you all for a dinner on site, at the Cơm Nieu Long Hải Tuấn restaurant.

We expect many hashers, so make sure you are at  the Caravelle on time, on SATURDAY and well before 2 pm (14h00). There will be a D2 pickup from two bus stops along the south side of the Hanoi Highway, one opposite the Thao Dien Rd. and the other in front of Estela. Bus arrives there at about 2.15 pm.

From your GM

We had a great Red Dress run, 9m days ago, followed by a refreshing pool party. Congratulations to Ballcock, who was elected Miss Saigon 2019 by our expert panel of judges. Scroll down to read Sexy Eyes's Red Dress run report. It shows a few pictures, but there are many more pictures on our website and Facebook, and we also have a movie of the run and party. Click on the icons that will link you directly to the relevant websites. 

We also succeeded in collecting a healthy amount of money for the Saigon Children's charity, almost VND 40 million. Thank you very much to all donors.

Finally, better start warming up for the famous annual Sinterklaas run, on SATURDAY 7th December. Organized by the Dutch, they always pull out all the stops for this occasion. The 793 years old Sinterklaas will visit us in the circle and will sponsor a dinner for all hashers in Dong Nai. 

On on,

Fuckoffee

The Saigon Hash Hump

All current, past and future Hashers and their guests are welcome to the rooftop bar “In Saigong", 29 Huynh Thuc Khang St, District 1, above the photo camera shop. To make the best of the happy hour at In Saigong, we start at 5 pm, every Wednesday.

The Hump is a Saigon Hash event, designed to break the long period between Hash runs. There are no rules, so you can call Hashers by their name or Hash handle, drink with your left hand or right hand, stand or sit in a circle, semi-circle, ellipse or square and no need to sit on ice if you arrive after 5 pm. In short, the Hump will be easy and relaxed and everybody is welcome.

Last Week's Run Report

Run 1535 The Red Dress Run
Date: 24/11/2019         
Location: District 9

A group of beautiful ladies dressed in red joined the hash this week. The departure of the bus was delayed by Ginger Minge who had gone to the ladies to put his dress on. This made him so hot that later he needed to be cooled off on the ice. The bus had a festive feel as the Hashers headed out to District 9 for this charity run. The destination reached the Hashers disembarked, checked each other out, held a photo shoot and circled up.

The hares for the run were Ms Fukcoffee and Yippie. The trail for the runners started through the wilderness winding round beautiful lakes and through wild woods, although the dancing and flashing on the trail was wild enough on its own.

Then it was back to the dusty tracks and civilization, where the locals had no idea what had hit them and the runners and walkers left a trail of bemused onlookers behind. Then it was On On into the pool for some drinking and refreshment before the real job of selecting the now Miss Saigon commenced. The run was summed up as red, fucked up, full of sluts but severely lacking in men to deal with them. It was given a score of -6.9. The walk got  Happy Flasher very hot but failed to get her wet, there was a lot of back and forth and many false starts but the walkers got there in the end. It was also given a score of -6.9 making the overall score -6.9, well it couldn’t really be anything else could it!

The virgins for this run were Sarah from Ireland who came with Mary Poppins, Andy from Taiwan who had Barking Mad to make him come,  Denise from South Africa who came thanks to her husband and Kiem from Vietnam who came with Happy Flasher. The Returnees were Ms Ginger Minge who has been on a sex tour for 2 years, Hot Pickle who has been staying at home, Auditerd who has been in Singapore and Rainman and Yippie who only come when it is at home. 

The Brits where then charged with firing their Prince simple because he was armless. Invade My Date was charged with writing a book with no intention of publishing because he’s stupid, he’s stupid… you know the rest. Tug My Dong was then charged with disappointing the girls. Last year he was wearing a very sexy little number and this year he barely had it on at all. 

This brings us on to the main event, the judging of the Miss Saigon 2019 competition and it was a very tough choice for the judges this year. The competitors parade was a sight for sore eyes.  Each contestant then gave a wonderful speech explaining why they deserve the award, which can be condensed into 2 words: legs and dresses. Ms Deciballs hinted that if he won he might let his hair down but this left the judges unimpressed. Even Ms Ginger Minges statement that he was the most deserving as he had traveled the furthest fell on deaf ears. When the final 5 did there best catwalk moves to the camera, Ms Ginger Minge lost control almost knocking the camera woman for six in her desperation to offer sexual favours in return for awards. Finally the placings were Ms Fukcoffee in third, Ms Ginger Minge in second and Ms Ballcock overwhelmed to be once again taking on this converted mantle. For the full glory of the story check out the video.  

The Hashers all then piled onto the bus for the return journey to Saigon, which was brightened up by the alouetting of the new Miss Saigon and Andy the fabulous virgin. 

That's all for this week.

Sexy Eyes signing off.
