This week we have a presentation on the Rotary Youth Driver Awareness (RYDA) Program by Craig and Jan Rogasch, the District 9500 RYDA Coordinators, and the Rotary Club of Barossa Valley. SAPOL and invited local High School & Area School, plus Dirt Circuit representatives will be attending.

In essence, it is a session to gain all the right knowledge we need, on how to manage such a program in the hope that our club and the other stakeholders in our community will soon be able to promote and run such a program for the youth across Lower Eyre Peninsula.

Last week we were all intrigued by the photos and talk given by fellow member Lloyd Burgess on his meanderings across Western Australia and Northern Queensland over the last two years or so.

If John (Seagull) Hancox stays long enough in Port Lincoln next time he pays us a visit, we’ll have to give him a shot at telling us all about his and Tresna’s Australia-wide adventures.

Megga’s BBQ went off very well at Fisherman’s point last Wednesday for Adelaide-Lincoln Race week and we fed a total of 203 people between noon and 3.00 pm.

I expect we might hear the results of our efforts from Scott Stenson this week!

Thanks to Weetbix, Hendo, Turves, Burgee, Leechy, Sorro, Crackatinny, Jim Kay and a couple of ring-ins in John Crook and Roger Nurse who helped set up the Yacht Club’s facilities on the beach and then ourselves, and then ‘retired’ to cook and serve all the steak, sausages and salads required.

Jackie Siviour (Choneyhurch) made her amazing salads again for us to serve!

The loss of our well respected Past President Peter Whillas came as no surprise, still a shock!

The celebration of his life with many varied and illuminated stories by his family and close friends at the Golf Club on Friday was amazing.

The sun shone bright and warm on the huge gathering, but it was nice to move inside the clubrooms afterwards to be much cooler and drink a cheery toast to Peter as we all knew him and as the photos reminded us; and then ‘get on with our lives’ as he would have expected us to!

Well done to Greg Jones and Pat Callaghan who did us proud in the eulogies they offered; both from a private point of view and in particular, on behalf of the club. Thank you also to those members, wives and partners who helped with the afternoon tea and clearing the decks as the function progressed.

Committees meetings will be next Tuesday, 9th March.

Good cup of coffee

An Irish woman of advanced age visited her physician to ask his advice in reviving her husband's libido. 

'What about trying Viagra?' asked the doctor..

'Not a chance', she said. 'He won't even take an aspirin.'

'Not a problem,' replied the doctor. 'Give him an 'Irish Viagra'. It's when you drop the Viagra tablet into his coffee. He won't even taste it. Give it a try and call me in a week to let me know how things went.'

It wasn't a week later when she called the doctor, who directly inquired as to her progress... The poor dear exclaimed, 'Oh, faith, bejaysus and begorrah! T'was horrid! Just terrible, doctor!'

'Really? What happened?' asked the doctor.

'Well, I did as you advised and slipped it in his coffeeAn Irish woman of advanced age visited her physician to ask his advice in reviving her husband's libido.

'Really? What happened?' asked the doctor.

'Well, I did as you advised and slipped it in his coffee and the effect was almost immediate. He jumped straight up, with a twinkle in his eye and with his pants a-bulging fiercely! With one swoop of his arm, he sent me cups and tablecloth flying, ripped me clothes to tatters and took me then and there passionately on the tabletop! It was a nightmare, I tell you, an absolute nightmare!'

'Why so terrible?' asked the doctor, 'Do you mean the sex your husband provided wasn't good?' 

'By jaysus, 'twas the best sex I've had in 25 years! But sure as I'm sittin here, I'll never be able to show me face in McDonald's again!


Fondling in bed

After 20 years of marriage, a couple was lying in bed one evening, when the wife felt her husband begin to fondle here in ways he hadn't for quite some time.

It almost ticked as his fingers started at her neck, and then began moving down past the small of her back.

He then caressed her shoulders and neck, slowly worked his hand down over her breasts, stopping just over her lower stomach.

He then proceeded to place his hand on her left inner arm, caressed past the side of her breast again, working down her side, passed gently over her bottock and down her leg to her calf. Then, he proceeded up her inner thigh stopping just at the uppermost portion of her leg. He continued in the same manner on her right side, then suddenly stopped, rolled over and started watching the TV.

As she had become quite aroused by his caressing, she asked in a loving voice, "That was wonderful, why did you stop?"

He said, "I found the remote."



The four way test
Of the things we think, say or do:
Is it the truth?
Is it fair to all concerned?
Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
Will it be beneficial to all concerned?

Invocation:

For food, faith and fellowship and every opportunity of service we give you thanks O’Lord.
