Report of the Meeting
Members were split into their various groups according to the list of duties for next year published on the web site. The task set for this meeting was to produce and discuss ideas for next years' activities. Notes from each groups discussion was given to PE Dick so a plan of action can be formed. By the amount of activity and levels of noise generated at the various tables there should be lots of interesting and worthwhile projects in the offing for 2012/13.
- Note to members – Apologies must be in by 11a.m. on MONDAY! Notification later than this is of no use. Co-operation with this would be appreciated.

- The trouble with some women is that they get all excited about nothing and then they marry him.
- I read this article that said the typical symptoms of stress are eating too much, impulse buying, and driving too fast. Are they kidding? That is my idea of a perfect day.
