Newsletter for the Rotary Club of Greater Geraldton - Issue No.: 456 Issue Date: 29 Jan, 2018

Script by Bill Shakespoore

Sergeant Pirro (the Navy Blue hero) introduces President Viki who likens our gathering to the League of Nations (which ceased operations in 1946 Ed.) … “… a lot of old faces…” but she moves on seamlessly to invite L Dines Esq for INVOCATION AND TOAST. He is up to the mark!

INTRODUCTIONS OF GUESTS follow with Ian Taylor GP introducing our guest speaker Shelley Fennell; Kevin Watson introducing Lachlan Sudlow OBES to Sweden 14-15 and  his father Tony from the famous farming family of Northampton: Dan Crisp introduces former IBES from Finland 15-16 Janika Eronen and her fiancé Jimi Tuhkanen, as well as Rotarian on leave Christina Ware; Sgt Pirro then introduces current IBES Lola Mathieu. Smiles all around, it is like old home week!

Eating (dis)order is announced as Top Table, table to PresVik’s right and then table to left, the rabble can never be pleased…
