Wagga Mens Shed No 1 in Australia |
 Rick Priest apologised for missing the Gears and Beers last weekend. He was attending a conference in the Gold Coast of all the Men's Sheds in Australia. It was a special conference for Rick since he was the founding President of the Wagga Men's Shed and the shed was voted Men's Shed of the Year. The award is a national recognition with over 900 Men's Sheds in Australia. Congratulations, Rick. Notice Ricks Men's Shed Logo on his shirt. |
| Sergeant John Flynn |
John started his fine session by fining Paul Murray for answering one of Johns computer questions using gobbly-dee-gook computer speak...(the fact is John wasn't listening). He went on to fine a number of members for a number of things which I can't remember because I wasn't listening.  He did finish up with a couple good jokes. He told of two Irishmen who bought a couple budgies from the pet store and went to a cliff top. One tied the budgies to his ears and jumped off the cliff. He went splat to the bottom. The other Irishman observed this and decided not to take up budgee jumping. John told another story about an Irishmen who jumped off a cliff Parrot shooting.....with similar results. John is a significant contributer to the cultural and ethnic education of Wollundry members. Well done John |
