This Week's Hash: Bull & Bush (AND EXTRA NOTES)

Howzit, Hashers:
This week's hash (Sunday, 8th of July)  will be from the Bull & Bush in Broadhurst, and Lucy will be your hare. Start at 10:00am and you can stay for lunch & general barroom antics after.

Appears we have a handful of new hashers these days (including a few even newer ones that haven't made it yet) so allow me to provide location/directions for those who haven't yet had the pleasure of finding the Bull (or the Bush):

Coming from UB/National Stadium/Riverwalk: Take Chuma road north past the Gabs Sun and University, Stadium, Mosque, etc. until you come to the intersection with Nyerere Dr./Segoditshane at Maru Apartments.  Turn Left here, onto Julius Nyerere Dr.
Continue on Nyerere all the way to the big junction at Nelson Mandela Dr., just before the railway overpass, and here you turn Right (onto Nelson Mandela).
Travel appx. 400m and turn Left onto a gravel road that will take you 300m to another gravel road, where you turn left and will see the pub straight ahead.

Coming from the Western Bypass:
Use the Western Bypass to get you to the BTV Circle (between Blocks 3, 6 & 7) and turn towards town/railway at the Circle (east).
Cross over the railway overpass, and turn Left onto the gravel road immediately after you cross the railway.  B&B will be on your left on this gravel road, just after the entrance to Maharaja.

Extra notes/info/pleas from the Hare Razor:  
Firstly: We have even more lovely female prospective hashers without cars on our  hands (what's the deal!?) so if anyone would be kind enough to provide lifts, you'll not only be doing the hash a favor by getting new blood into our slowly waning adult population, but you'll be helping your own karma and making yourself look good, too. The newest culprit to beg of your charity is Laura, who has just arrived, and her email address is lmcdon03 at gmail dot com. She's staying at Innisfree Apts. near Riverwalk, so anyone over yonder in The Village area, if you can so kindly offer her a lift, please contact her and let her know. 

Secondly: Hare Razor (moi) is going to be overseas for a month starting from next week, so WE NEED HARES FOR THE NEXT 5 SUNDAYS to be put in place now, otherwise someone else is going to have to step in and make some miracles happen week-by-week as well as sending out the emails, updating the blog & Facebook page,  etc. Sound fun?  OF COURSE NOT! So please allow me to put names on the calendar before I go, so that you don't miss any hashes over the next month.  This offer will be on a first-come-first-serve basis, so if you email me with the date that you can volunteer to set the hash RIGHT NOW, I will reserve it for you and advise all accordingly.

This means we need volunteers for:  July 15th, 22nd, 29th, and August 5th, 12th.  Remember, you do not have to host a big hoo-ha at your house for on-afters if you don't want to, you just have to set the course. Period. You can even do it from an empty plot or a derelict building, if you don't want us to know where you live. IF you are new and have never set a hash before, never fear, someone will help you who knows what they're doing. Someone may even help you who DOESNT know what they're doing... but you won't be on your own, so just say the word and we'll organize you a mentor.

Additionally: Myself & Angelina may need a housesitter/dogsitter for the weeks we are away, so if you are not a criminal and would like to live on Independence Ave. with free DSTV and Internet for a few weeks between mid-July & mid-August, let me know. Must love dogs.
