WASHers is back! Hashing isn't only about being embarassing in public, wearing seriously unflattering jogging togs and drinking too much beer - some hashers drink too much wine, as well. The Wine Appreciation Society of Hashers - "WASHers" - was founded by Wet Wipe of the Bristol Hash House Harriers, the inaugural meeting being held on Thursday 26th May, 2005 at the Clifton Sausage. A lot of wine, (including two re-launches) has been passed since then. The last WASHers, of which there is no known record, was at Sergio's in Frogmore Street, Bristol, on Friday, 20th July, 2007.

Welcome Autumn with a glass or six of vino, vin, vinho, Wein, gwin, plonk or wine among friends and sympathisers.
 
Date: Saturday, 30th September 2017. Time: evening.
Place: CJ's Coffee House and Deli, 14 Upper Maudlin Street, Bristol BS2 8DJ.
 
CJ's is being opened especially for the event! American Supper, so bring a plate of food, along with a bottle of wine to share and appreciate.
 
You MUST book - maximum of 20 places. Please let Wet Wipe, LUNCHi or HBK know if you are attending.

The Clifton Sausage, Clifton, Bristol. 27/05/2006.

Those present were me, Sweat Monster, Kerbcrawler, Stiffy, Mad Max, and virgin WASHers Old Leg Over, Rock Chick and Rodders. Sleepy sent his apologies (and lost his 100% attendance record!) due to putting something in the wrong place in his diary.

AGPU business took less than a minute with Max suggesting the officers from the last year remained in post. No-one seemed to think otherwise, so that was carried. Sweat Monster (Slops Monster) said he'd try and attend more often.

Fine food (mainly sausages) was eaten, followed by jolly yummy Thorntons chocolate cake. A few bottles of wine were downed too. I lost count after about six.

Sweat Monster and I then went on to some pub up the Gloucester Road before I poured myself into a taxi to take me home.

The next WASHers will be a barbie at HBK's house on Saturday 5th August. BYOB and something to chuck on the barbie.
