Sergeant Session

In lieu of a Sergeants session, President Jennifer conducted a quiz in which all answers should end with ‘ical’. It was a fun session but two standouts to hog the chocolate were Nicholas and Carmel. The cleaners probably needed a truck to cart away Nicholas’ wrappers.  We think the clue to his success may lie in the elixir of his single shot Irish Whiskey (hate to see a double).

Raffle was won by Andrew..

The final result – Wednesday 21 May

We gathered at Wamoon Ave to finally install the new seat at Wamoon Ave.  There were plenty of helpers on the day – at least there were plenty of chiefs and maybe fewer Indians.

Congratulations to Geoff who organized the funding, liaison with council, the working sessions including all the equipment, all the ordering and even picking the seat up from Shepparton.

Roll Call

Talking Dirty Turkey

A young man received a parrot as a gift. It had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity.
John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to 'clean up' the bird's vocabulary.
Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot.
The parrot yelled back.
John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even more rude.
John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer.

For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Then there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute.
Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer.
The parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behaviour."
John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behaviour, the bird spoke up, very softly, "May I ask what the turkey did?

A: The word ‘ton’
