Thursday’s cards were a hoot with six players. Three long games were played with Patricia Gear, Pat Gamble and Marie Joyce being the final winners. Carpet bowls did not have enough players so an extraordinary two games were played for fun only with no scores kept.
Our activities are running down to a close for Christmas/new year celebrations. Our general meeting is being held on Monday, December 6 at 2pm. Our Christmas lunch is on Thursday, December 9 starting at noon. Happy December birthdays go to Nell Germon, Ines Trento and John Armstrong.
To those members who may be unwell we wish a speedy recovery. Seymour Senior Citizens’ Club will close its doors on December 23 to cater for the last of cards. For any bowlers who may be interested we will open on the last two Fridays of January 2022.
And finally, just for a laugh — a man walks into a pet store, interested in a parrot. He notices a gorgeous bird with a red ribbon on its right ankle and a blue ribbon on its left ankle. The man asks the store owner about the ribbons
"Oh this is a specially trained parrot,“ the store owner said.
“If you tug on the red ribbon the parrot will sing the national anthem. If you tug on the blue ribbon he will sing Waltzing Matilda."
“That's pretty awesome," the man responds. "But what happens if you tug both at the same time?"
The parrot answers the man, saying “I'd fall off my perch, you moron".
