Captain's Log

It was great to see a good turnout of members at the first night at our new
home the Taieri bowling club. Members were overheard talking about the
warmth of the venue and evidence was the number of jackets hanging on the
backs of chairs. The food was tasty and plentiful, and it will probably be our
waistlines that we will be complaining about next. Lea may end up having to
bring her scales along before to long.
Lea and Dave were sharing about their trip on the Ghan from Adelaide up to
Darwin followed by a few days in Sydney it must have been a great trip. The
talk certainly hit the spot. Seargent Stu was if fine fettle (no pun intended) and
even those who missed being fined were happy to contribute. Possibly a starter
fine for next week should be who has googled Australian train journeys or
camper van prices from Adelaide to Darwin this week.
Colin has had planting again this week and Mike announced the The Otago
youth adventure trust are having a working bee at Berwick on the weekend of
the 12'/13t of October. It would be great to have some helpers support this.
Also a reminder that we are only a few weeks away from our Booksale at
Wingatui. Work will increase a bit over the coming weeks so be prepared to
help if Ross Fraser or Dave gives you a call. Looking forward to see you all back
at the Bowling Club on the g' of September.
