President Michael & Agnes are still overseas and will be for another 4 weeks, but of course there is no envy from any of us.
In Mikes absence Senior Vice-President Rob will take over & if he is absent PP Ross will take up the mantle. PP Ross is expected to be in the chair for the 18 October meeting
We did not hold a meeting last week but instead several members & their partners had a social evening at the Peninsula Club, after a slight delay as our booking was misplaced. There was also a mishap at the Safety Beach Sailing Club which your erstwhile Secretary/Assistant Editor will elaborate on at the next meeting.
