 President Andrea's Message .
 
At the first part of the AGM on Tuesday night I presented (read) my report for my first six months in office.
 
It began -As we wind down a busy 6 months and head off to holiday season I wish to thank everyone for their
support and friendships over the last 6 months.
What a roller coaster ride from a hideous beginning to now. It’s amazing how support from others
can give you strength - Read the rest of my report....

Duty Roster Attendance.
 
It is important (as noted under the "Duty Roster" on the left) that if your name is listed that you organise for someone to do your duty on the night (if you are not attending on the night or you are to be late) as often it is falling to members who are there early in the evening to do the duties (otherwise they are being done later on before the meeting - when those on duty have no appeared). By clicking on the link (under 'Duties Roster") it is possible to see the "full" list showing when you are due to be on well in advance to give you plenty of time to organise (swap) with someone.
 

 
A Riddle To Solve.
 
The answer to last weeks riddle:-
 
An anchor.
 

The word "what" is spelled with four letters (w, h, a, and t). The word "sometimes" is spelled with 9 letters (s,o,m,e,t,i,m,e, and s) etc.
