Sound system 
It was better this week but if you can't hear the speaker put your hand up and let them know or they waisted their time coming
Reminder: - Will members who are meeting a visiting speaker explain to them that they must speak into the end of the microphone as all singers and entertainers do with that type of Mic. (watch the TV). Would members who go up to speak please take the Mic out of the holder and hold it up to their chin because it will not work if it is left some distance from the speaker in the holder when the head is turned away. 
Remember the system will only work if used correctly

THE WIFE 
A  police officer pulls over a speeding car. The officer says, "I clocked you at 80 miles per hour,sir." 
 
The driver says,  "Goodness, officer, I had it on cruise control at 60; perhaps your radar gun needs calibrating."
 
 
Not looking up from her knitting the wife says:'Now don't be silly, dear -- you know that this car doesn't have  cruise control" 
 
As the officer writes out the ticket, the driver looks over at his wife and growls,

"Can't you please keep your mouth shut for once !! ?" 
 
The wife smiles demurely and says,  "Well dear you should be thankful your radar detector went off when it did or your speed would have been higher."
 
As the officer makes out the second ticket for the illegal radar detector unit , the man glowers at his wife and says through clenched teeth,

"Woman, can't you keep your mouth shut?" 
 
The officer frowns and says,  'And I notice that you're not wearing your seat belt, sir. That's an automatic $75 fine. ' 
 
The driver says,  'Yeah, well, you see, officer, I had it on, but I took it off when you pulled me over so that I could get my license out of my back pocket. ' 
 
The wife says,  "Now, dear, you know very well that you didn't have your seat belt on. You never wear your seat belt when you're driving."
And as the police officer is writing out the third ticket, the driver turns to his wife and barks,   ‘WILL YOU PLEASE SHUT UP?? ' 
 
The officer looks over at the woman and asks,"Does your husband always talk to you this way, Ma'am? " 
 
I love this part.......


"Only when he's been drinking."

Project Dictionaries
Dictionaries to Schools
 
A morning well spent!
 
What a rewarding project Graham has organised and such a pleasure to drive  to first Lee Stream School where we presented seven dictionaries to the very grateful students who were wondering if they would be getting theirs. Then on to Middlemarch and the StrathTaieri primary school.
First to be welcomed by the Principal Emma Barker who some years ago was  a RYE student to Canada sponsored  by the Mosgiel Rotary Club, and a Rotarian in the Waimate Club before moving to Middlemarch.
Then to be so welcome in the classroom of young girls and boys six of them in  year four (standard two?) waiting to receive a dictionary of their very own.(see photo)
What a pleasure it is to experience how grateful  the children and teachers are, and be assured that the books are valued and get plenty of use. We also have to thank Margie for so beautifully printing the children names in all the books.
