Show Questions Only
Q Why is EuroHash 2023 again at Castle the Berckt?
 Neptunus: we would like to use this venue every year! It`s a great location!
It was used for EuroHash2011, The Brussels Beer Odyssy 2014 Pre Lube, Neptunus weekends in 2017 & 2019.
Nudenuts: nobody else wanted to bid for EuroHash2023! if you don`t like the venue: try again in 2025!
   
Q Will a trailerpark be involved?
 Neptunus: we learned from EH2011 that Americans, Aussies and Kiwi`s hate trailerparks, so no; no trailerpark involved!
Nudenuts: we learned from EH2011 that Americans, Aussies and Kiwi`s hate trailerparks: so YES, the trailerpark will be involved!
   
Q There is a rumor that during EH2011 hashers could not find their room, although they were still sober!
 Neptunus: Things change in 10 years! All rooms have unigue numbers now and there is a `directions to your room` system!
Nudenuts: not my problem.
   
Q Any other news about the venue?
 Neptunus: all rooms in the Old Castle are refurbished and the rooms have a unique roomnumber now! No more bunkbeds: 75 rooms for 2. A lot of antiques and paintings from famous painters in the corridors and halls.
Nudenuts: the place is too posh for hashers.
   
Q So EuroHash 2023... wont be just a copy of EH2011?
 Neptunus; we will copy the good parts and forget the bad parts.
Nudenuts: we are sure we can create new, original major f*ckups!! After all it`s the Hash!
   
Q What kind of beer will we get?
 Neptunus: we have an all-inclusive agreement with the castle. This means they provide the beer! Lucky for us the beer tapped in the Castle is Gulpen. Wine and softdrinks are plenty available and there will be Opee`s Cocktailbar! Whiskey, champagne etc. is (of course) not included!!
Nudenuts: unfortunatly the Castle serves no Heineken! The best beer in the world!
   
Q I want to ask you some more questions but I forgot them. What shall I do??
 Get sober!!
   
Q What should we do in an emergency?
 Neptunus: Call 112! The Castle has it`s own Ambulance. AED`s all over the place. First aid: we will think about that!
Nudenuts: stay calm and have a beer!
   
Q Is this weekend kids friendly?
 Neptunus: we encourages parents to bring their offspring. They are our future Hashers! So special rates for kids! Maybe even a certified nanny will be present.
Nudenuts: I hate kids!
   
Q I don`t really like it when kids are at a Hash Weekend: I have to behave and cannot walk around naked!
 Neptunus: don`t you worry! First of all; experience learned the kids will disappear all weekend! There is a huge attic where kids have TV, Playstation, couches etc. so they will be in their own world.
Nudenuts: No kids at the party!
   
Q How difficult is it to find the venue? Can the Castle be reached easily?
 Neptunus: there are three airports nearby. Aken, Dusseldorf, Eindhoven and for Hashers from far, far away even Amsterdam-Schiphol is close. Direct train from Schiphol (Amsterdam) to Venlo. From Venlo you take the bus in front of station. Busstop is only 400 meters away from the venue. It is also okay if you come by car!
Nudenuts: It`s sooo easy: I have been there several times!
   
Q Why is Neptunus still organising Hash Weekends?
 Neptunus: because I like organising. Especially for Hashers!
Nudenuts: if Neptunus screws up he will get a down-down for it. In the normal world he would be sued!
   
Q So Neptunus will get many down-downs?
 Neptunus: I don`t think so. This time it will be perfect!
Nudenuts: ofcourse: why do you think he f*cks up so much?
   
Q Why do we have to use (Transfer) Wise to pay?
 Neptunus: Wise was used for EuroHash 2019 and 2021 and probably for a lot more hash events. Wise has a possibility to pay to an Iban number.
Nudenuts: PayPal scr*wed us in the past by freezing our account!
Evil brother of Nudenuts: Wise; take it or leave it! No discussion!
   
Q Why is EuroHash 2023 so expensive?
 Neptunus: In countries like The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Sweden, Norway etc. after /during Covid it`s not possible anymore to organise something cheap! One of the reasons: Hotels and restaurants can hardly get staff/employees nowadays. During the lockdown almost everybody looked for a job in another sector. The hotels etc. have to pay a good salary nowadays. Employees don`t want to take the risk of another lockdown.
Nudenuts: Why don`t you organise a EuroHash in a cheap country?
