With President Peter unwell and VP Merv on holidays Secretary Chris ruled the roost for the night. Our Chairman for the night, Colin Byatt, was rapidly bouncing back to his full exuberant self, and who during his gig, talked us through his recent experience in hospital, where specialists discovered a two centimetre “weed” flapping around one of his heart valves. It was decided, and I believe Col was involves on the decision, that some weeding out was required; and a new pig valve was the result. Most of the meeting concerned itself with our current project. In particular we were reminded by Roger Mc that we have a long way to go before the raffle returns a profit. Ray Barnard-Brown has volunteered to take some of the load of Roger and is now organising the roster. So to make it easier for Ray and to ensure the success of this significant project please respond to Ray's emails. Discussion went on long enough to ensure that Geoff Taylor's and Ian McIntosh's talk on their recent diving trip to Truk Lagoon had to be put off to a future meeting. |
