At the end of lunch last Tuesday it was surely raining hard. Members were offering lifts to take other members to their parked cars. The Shadow observed Lawrence Reddaway refusing such offers, patiently waiting for the rain to ease before pedaling off home along the Gardiner’s Creek bike path. The Shadow understands that he would have got home reasonably dry – were it not for a car having sent up a 2 metre spray from a large puddle in Glenferrie Road, at the very start of his ride. Gardiner’s Creek was, apparently, running with thrillingly impressive vigor! Great to see those mobile phones continuing as source of revenue...easy pickings for fine-master Trevor Jones. The Shadow thanks Ngaire Cannon or was it someone else at that table? But what about Trevor's boast on football whereby if any of his tips don't win this week he will contribute $5. One scribe provided The Shadow with the following list and Treasurer Ian Gillies has accordingly booked a significant contingent income entry. Tigers, Hawks, Demons, Giants, Cats, Kangaroos, Bulldogs and Swans. Thanks and well done Trevor. |
