FAVOURITE MEMORIES:

Early days on the roof of the canteen, cleaning up!  The four ladies on the roof were Shirley Harris, Ruby Ellis, Beryl McAlpine and Ada Smith.

I remember one Saturday afternoon, the current president, Stan Ellis was working on top of club roof over the canteen.  He got down and put my youngest son, Adam, up there to do something for him.  Stan threw the spanner up to Adam, and would you believe, he knocked him off the roof!!!  Fortunately he was fine, and everyone laughed.
