Our esteemed host and quiz master for the evening was our very own Rotarian in-training and Chef Matt Gatt ably assisted by Gabby, providing the entertainment with jokes, team challenge and trivia. I know Rotarians are a kind and generous bunch, but I have discovered they can also be very competitive. A couple of comments from the night; “ha ha you are stupider than us”; “a very generous estimate of my abilities” and ‘we are just as clever as you now”.
I must admit some of the questions in the five ‘coloured coded’ sections were outside our member’s scope of expertise.
Name the artwork (if that is what you call it) and the artist.
So what do you do when you don’t have snow, you construct a snowman using crockery.
And the winners for the evening, everyone who attended and participated! Thanks Matt and Gabby.

The Menu 
Wow this week we enjoyed a Chilean Feast. You know the food is exceptional by the amount (or should I say ‘lack of’) talking during dinner. Rotarians feasted on Completos (Chilean hot dogs) with Pico de Gallo, Charquican Stew with eggs, guacamole, Baha dressing and prawn slaw salad. Sorry George but we also enjoyed Leche Asada for dessert.
Chef Matt’s mum is in town, so next week she will be our special guest chef, treating us to apricot chicken. Not to be out done by his mum, Matt said he will be doing a ‘fancy dessert”.
Between the painting and the cooking, something tells me Matt’s mum won’t be having much of a holiday. Least she won’t be bored!
