While living in Cyprus, I also hashed with the Pancyprian Panselinos Hash House Harriers (Cyprus Full Moon Hash). Due to my nature, it had been mooted I should be given the hash name 'Quiet Man'. However, at the hash following a weekend of ANZAC Day events, including an afternoon of hospitality provided by the Australian UN contingent during which it was reported I had been rather boisterous and danced on the Australian flag, it was decided I should be called 'Rowdy' instead and so that was the name given to me by the Pancyprian Panselinos Hash.
When I returned to the UK in March 1997, I started hashing with the Guildford Hash House Harriers, being the closest hash to my home and who I regard as my 'home hash', although I seldom hash with them these days.
I worked on an assignment in Houston, Texas, for many weeks (months!) during 1998 and have visited there a number of times since for both work and pleasure. Whenever I've been in Houston, I've tried to hash with the Houston Hash House Harriers who are a great bunch of people and always make me feel welcome, whether on their 'home turf' in Houston or at hash events around the world.
I also worked on assignments in Dubai, UAE, for many months (years!) since 1992 and have also visited there for both work and pleasure many times since. I first hashed with the Dessert Hash House Harriers in April 1999 when on a 6 month assignment there and have hashed with them whenever I can when I'm in Dubai. The Desert is one of the hashs with whom I have hashed with many times, achieving 50 runs in August 2001. I have many happy memories (and some memories that are second hand!) of times spent with Desert hashers at both hash and non‑hash events.
I worked as Resident Engineer on an assignment in Syria where I was based in Damascus and hashed with the Damascus Hash House Harriers during 2005‑2007. In February 2007, I went to Lebanon with hashers from the Damascus hash to attend the Snow Hash hosted at The Cedars by the Beirut Tarboush Hash House Harriers. During that weekend, I met a lovely harriet member of BTH3, 'Safe S@x' (Diana), and we continued to see each other regularly over the rest of that year. I was transferred to Lebanon in March 2007 to work as Resident Engineer on a project that had me based in Beirut and we got married in April 2007.
We continued to hash with BTH3, and were part of their mismanagement, until 2012 when my project role came to an end and I moved back to England, with Diana following after completing the arduous process of gaining UK Entry Clearance.
Since returning to the UK, we have only hashed occasionally, mainly with BTH3 during our regular visits to Lebanon.
Other groups I have hashed with include:
