BILLBOARD
ELECTIONS and AGMs
It is that time of the year again and PWP will work only with involvement from the members.
As a minimum, you need to turn up at your AGM to vote.
We need a minimum number (quorum) at your AGM in order to elect your committee.
Don’t assume someone else will do it - that is a recipe for failure !
The alternative is that your Branch has to be administered by State Management Committee which is not in anyone’s interest.
Please consider also how you could make a contribution to your committee.
Remember PWP is a self-help body where nothing “just happens”.
Sunday 23 July – HILLS
11am Committee Room, Upstairs at Gilbert Rd Tennis Courts, Castle Hill.

:-) The Misspelled Email
It's wise to remember how easily email -- this wonderful technology -- can be misused, sometimes unintentionally, with serious consequences.
Consider the case of the Illinois man who left the snow-filled streets of Chicago for a vacation in Florida.
His wife was on a business trip and was planning to meet him there the next day. When he reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a quick email.
Unfortunately, when typing her address, he missed one letter, and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher's wife whose husband had passed away only the day before.
When the grieving widow checked her email, she took one look at the monitor, let out a piercing scream, and fell to the floor in a dead faint.
At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note on the screen:
Dearest Wife, Just got checked in. Everything prepared for your arrival tomorrow.
P.S. Sure is hot down here.
Afterthought: Well, we knocked the bastard off! Hillary's comment to George Lowe, after his successful ascent of Mt Everest, as he and Tenzing Norgay were descending from the summit. (29 May 1953); as recounted in Nothing Venture, Nothing Win (1975) Ch. 10
