GENERAL NEWS.
On a sad note, Gabe has left the building, to work ??? at the Parkes Shire, we wish her all the best and hope she pops in to see us now and again, But as Bobby McFerrin said in his song Don't Worry Be Happy, because Whitney Ryan has entered the building as Gabes Replacement, Welcome Whitney I hope your stay will be a very happy one.
Which very well known club member decided to spray his tomatoes and veggies for bugs, but had a bout of Dyslexia,and mixed up his Rogor and Roundup, he discovered his mistake the next day, that Roundup is a powerful brew isn't it.
Well that's it for another week.
Good bowling to you all.
