BOXING DAY HASH 297 DECEMBER 26th

Dr Dirty (aka Woody) has sent details about the Boxing Day Hash. These are copied below & have also been sent out to our email list:

Please tell the Hashers to meet across the street from St.Anne’s/Bernadiniu as at the last Hash, and we will proceed from there at 11:30 (as usual) on Boxing Day/12/26. Because we’ve all been good so Santa will visit us, there will be a suspension of down-downs, and we will all come back to my flat at Berndiniu 3-43. I’d like to collect 10 litas for each person who will eat/drink, and I need to know how many of us there will be. I will prepare for a few extra people, but I’d like to hear from those who will come and how many they will bring with them. As in the past, I will make chili, salad, and provide bread and dessert – and hot wine if the weather happens to be cold. Otherwise, beer and soft drinks. (If there’s a Hash Beer person who could help with the drinks, that would be good – and even so, everyone will get to eat their money’s worth!)

MERRY CHRISTMAS

A Merry Christmas & a very Happy New Year to all those in Vilnius HHH and anyone else you can think of:)

With less than a week to go until the Festive Season hits full swing people start disappearing to travel to meet family & friends... for those of you staying in Vilnius you can still get a Festive fix of Hashing:) Dr Dirty (Woody) has again offered to hare the Green Bridge Walk on Boxing Day (December 26th) - the details will appear here as soon as they are known... the following week Beate is acting as Hare on New Year's Day in the afternoon - again details as we know them.

Then once it's all over & it's back to work & winter arrives the next 'normal' Hash will be Jan 7th with Girl on Top as hare :)

Once January is in full swing we'll start our twice monthly Wednesday socials again. Kiltman is also going to sort out a couple of lanes to go bowling at Akropolis.........

BURNS NIGHT JANUARY 27th 2007


Below is the text of email from the organiser of the Burn's Supper which is now just over 6 weeks away. Seems to be plenty of Glenfiddinch Whiskey which doesn't actually exist... you don't get whiskey in Scotland :)


Anyway this is always a very popular evet & tickets will go very quickly. Already 8 of the 20 we have available have gone. They are first come, first served. Money required early in New Year. Once they are gone we'll start a reserve list. Please email Kiltman at gordon@scottishotours.com to book a ticket. Text below:



Yes, I can confirm your 2 tables. I believe it will be about 170-180 Lt per person including full course traditional Scottish Dinner with haggis as a 2nd starter, welcome drink, 4 glasses of wine per person and Glenfiddinch whiskey. A group of young students lead by Chef are coming over from Scotland and will be helping to prepare Burns Supper to make it as more traditional as possible.

We will have new pipes this year from Scotland and Lews Castle College Ceilidh Band from West Isles of Scotland (miles away…). They are fantastic!!! Ceilidh dancing lessons will be held at the Embassy with Keith Shannon and will be announced in January for registration.

I am sorry, we’re a bit late this year to sort things out, but within moving to a new venue and aiming at new bands, it takes much longer to put things in places.

As an early bird I can offer you tables no 13-14 if this is OK with you.

ONLY 8 SEATS LEFT - 14/12/06

Time change

Quick note: Sunday's hhh will start at 11:30 not 11:00 so you'll all get an extra half hour in bed after the party! And bring Santa hats!

SANTA HASH 296 SUNDAY DECEMBER 10th


HO HO HO HASHERS!

OUR NEXT HASH WILL BE A CHRISTMAS CAROLING WALK AROUND OLD TOWN.

LET'S MEET AT 11:30 (note different from earlier time of 11:00 on emails sent out) ACROSS FROM ST. ANNE'S CHURCH. CAROLS WILL BE SUPPLIED. BRING YOUR OWN SANTA HAT OR OTHER CHRISTMAS APPAREL.

TO ALL THE RUNNERS....SORRY, THERE WILL NOT BE A RUNNING TRAIL, JUST SOME WALKING AND SINGING (note from Needles...runners, I think we can run along the walkers trail and just wait for the walkers at each carol point like last year!).

AFTERWARD, WE WILL GO TO A BAR (Amantinikiu) FOR SNACKS AND KARSTAS VYNAS.

VHHH CHRISTMAS PARTY & SANTA HASH

Just a couple of reminders..... firstly the VHHH Christmas Party is on Saturday December 9th at Joanne's house (Klimo 5 - near CocaCola Plaza). If you haven't already said you are comin then please email the hash to confirm... vilniushhh@gmail.com .

And the Santa Hash takes place on Sunday 10th. Details a bit scarece just now but will be posted as soon as anything is known:

The next hash will be on 10th December and Denise will be setting it. As it is a Christmas Carol hash, can you all wear Father Christmas hats! There will be free food provided at Amatininku afterwards.

As you can see from above we'll have the circle & ON ON at Amatininku - guess it'll be around 13:00. Had thought of having the ON ON in the Dubliner but when Kiltman went in to reserve it they insisted we had to be there within 15 mins of the booked time.... and you know Hash timing. One of the owners said 'you know what Lithuanians are like' and shrugged his shoulders when I said it was the Hash (and they know the Hash).... so looks to me like the Dubliner isn't interested in getting any Hash business... so Amatininku wins :)

A WEEK AWAY & WHAT HAPPENS??

OK... new news :) The DUBLINER is open tomorrow :) :) (actually today now....) OK... we have waited almost one year... and it's our run / walk social... so the VHHH waits for no one... and the run / walk is based at Amatininku... and if you really want to go to the Dubliner... so be it... but Kiltman stays in Amatininku :)
