Public Participation

There is to be a public meeting in Whitehaven Civic Hall on Thursday 1^st February 6.45/7.00pm when the health service Clinical Assessment, Treat & Support Service (C A T S) will be debated.

As this issue is yet another stealth method of reducing West Cumbrians medical facilities it is incumbent upon us as individuals to attend and voice our concerns.

Humour

Pat and Mick, upon hearing of the grounding of the container ship on Branscombe Beach, decided they also would scavenge for salvage. Pat came away with 23 deck chairs and Mick took five bags of sand!

Classical concert

We have received a letter from FRANCESCO ATTESTI, a Rotarian classical pianist member of the Rotary Club of Cortona – Italy in which he offers to perform, accompanied by the mezzo soprano ANNIKA KASCHENZ, a program of classical music providing a suitable venue can be found in our area.

Is there anyone in the Club willing to organise this?

Anyone interested contact the Secretary.

Humour

A new form of Viagra has been produced which is in powder form and be consumed by both men and women.

The powder should be added to your cup of tea.

It does not have any effect on your sex life but it stops your biscuits going soft when you dunk them!

Rotary Technology Tournament
