President's News


Bruce's BLOG

The meeting this week has been moved from Tuesday night at the Belvedere to Wednesday night (16th May) at the Moreton Bay Boat Club who have an excellent hot and cold seafood platter special at the moment.  There is no change in time and it is a partner night.

The "Hat Day" meeting which had been scheduled has been moved to the 29th of May.

On behalf of the club, I would also like to assure Glen Smith that he and his family will be in all of our thoughts and prayers....and that if there is anything we can do to help you through this tough time Glen, please do let us know.

President Bruce

Terry's Friday Funnies


"Well, Mrs. O'Connor, so you want a divorce? " the solicitor questioned his client. "Tell me about it. Do you have a grudge? " "

Oh, no," replied Mrs. O'Connor. "Sure now, we have a carport. "

The solicitor tried again. "Well, does the man beat you up? "

"No, no," said Mrs. O'Connor, looking puzzled. "Oi'm always first out of bed. "

Still hopeful, the solicitor tried once again. "What I'm trying to find out are what grounds you have. "

"Bless you, sir. We live in a flat -- not even a window box, let alone grounds. "

"Mrs. O'Connor," the solicitor said in considerable exasperation, "you need a reason that the court can consider. What is the reason for you seeking this divorce? "

"Ah, well now," said the lady, "Sure it's because the man can't hold an intelligent conversation. "

Why do black widow spiders kill their males after mating?

To stop the snoring before it starts.

Three ladies were discussing the travails of getting older. One said, "Sometimes I catch myself with a jar of mayonnaise in my hand, while standing in front of the refrigerator, and I can't remember whether I need to put it away, or start making a sandwich. "

The second lady chimed in with, "Yes, sometimes I find myself on the landing of the stairs and can't remember whether I was on my way up or on my way down. "

The third one responded, " Well, ladies, I'm glad I don't have that problem. Knock on wood," as she rapped her knuckles on the table, and then said, "That must be the door, I'll get it! "
