“THE HUM”

Edition 17- 2010/ 2011– Ki-Lines

Well, how did you all survive the big wet? Wendi & I sprung a few

leaks, but still stayed afloat.

Unfortunately the Redgrave‟s did cop water through their home.

They report that all is OK now, although they are in the middle of

replacing their floor coverings. As quoted by Ray & Faye, “compared

to Japan, this is nothing”. It makes you proud to be a Lion. When

Ray put out a call for help, four Lions fronted up on the Tuesday to

help remove the damaged carpets etc. Well done guys & gals!

The Kiama Markets issue has been „put to rest‟ at this time. Friday

last, before the Tender close time, we placed a letter in the Tender

Box informing Council of our wish not to Tender. Thank you to all

involved in the process. This was a subject that needed to be fully

aired through discussion, with all who wanted to have an input having the opportunity, even if

some statements were duplicated at times. I am pleased to say that what could have been a

very divisive issue within the Club has been resolved in an extremely democratic way.

This past fortnight has been relatively quiet and in some ways I‟m thankful for that, but it then

gives me nothing to write about

We do have a couple of items coming up. Some are mentioned later in this Bully. Most

importantly is the roster for the Driver Reviver. I like to think that our involvement in this is

saving lives, just by simply providing an „on the road‟ break, with a cuppa & a chat.

I have just received an email from Jim Webb as follows (partly):

“Hi Jim Just thought I would pass on my sad news to you... and maybe you can mention it in the KiLines... my father passed away yesterday evening. Graeme Henderson.” Graeme's address is Bridle Track Rd, Markwood Vic (the end of), mobile 0429324509, email: graebh@gmail.com if you would like to send a card or contact Graeme & Lynne. I look forward to seeing you all at this weeks‟ meeting. Local identity Col Rathbone, from the Kiama Sports Council, is our guest speaker. We also have our annual elections, our proposed Board for next year follows next page. You know, as soon as I put this to print, I will remember something that needed to be shoved in, anyhow, until Thursday.....bye.
