Sergeant’s Session: Geoff Beecher
Geoff was in fine form – undoubtedly buoyed by the Collingwood win. No Rotarian escaped his attention – even those who claimed to be good all week were fined for the privilege.
Bruer and Brian were fined for using the wife excuse for skipping out on jobs. There was quite some discussion about dinner badges – Eric got one but didn’t need it; Barry didn’t get one; Kerry had agitated for a replacement for several weeks but then found his. Andrew was fined for riding his bike in the rain – turns out he was in the car. George was fined for demonstrating his conflict resolution skills. Nicholas designed his costume for the weekend but found he couldn’t sit down in it. George was reminded about Carol’s birthday and Alan about his Anniversary (56th!).
Barry Patten won the raffle.

Joke?
SEX AFTER DEATH?
A couple made a deal that whoever died first would come back and inform the other if there is sex after death.
Their biggest fear was that there was no after life at all.
After a long life together, the husband was the first to die. True to his word, he made the first contact:
" Marion ....Marion "
"Is that you, Bob?"
"Yes, I've come back like we agreed."
"That's wonderful! What's it like?"
"Well, I get up in the morning, I have sex. I have breakfast and then it's off to the golf course. I have sex again, bathe in the warm sun and then have sex a couple of more times. Then I have lunch (you'd be proud - lots of greens). Another romp around the golf course, then pretty much have sex the rest of the afternoon. After supper, it's back to golf course again. Then it's more sex until late at night. I catch some much needed sleep and then the next day it starts all over again"
"Oh, Bob! Are you in Heaven?"
"No dear -- I'm a rabbit in Leeton
