President Hugh's Message.
 
Lectern Observations:

Four eyes are watching you (rumours are about the 5-eye spy group might become four eyes, but that is political, so as our politicians like to say; no comment!) Viewing from the lectern gives quite a different perspective to sitting amongst you.

Did you realise when we have a guest speaker who is a retired school principal every one of you stood up to ask a question? The discipline and respect drummed into us older folk at school is still alive and well! Yet when we have a younger guest, or indeed a person from a different ethnic background, not one stood up to ask a question. Something for you to reflect upon.

Editors Humour.
 
A man came in to give his application to the manager. But the manager asked, "Why is there a four-year gap in your application?" And the man responded, "Yale." The manager hired him and the guy said, "Thanks. I needed a yob."

At the doctor’s office, Jess was trying to make an appointment for a Mrs. Hewitson. Try as she might, she just could not remember her first name. Frustrated, she left. A few minutes later, I passed her outside the office on the phone.“Hey, Dad,” she said. “What’s Mom’s first name?”

A friend was due to give birth around the same time that her oldest daughter was due to give birth to her first baby. On the morning my friend went into labor, I happened to drive by her house, wondering what she’d had. A sign on the front porch gave me my answer: “It’s an Uncle!”
