Weekly meeting, Monday 11 July 2016
I know you will all be glad that we are now resuming the weekly report of our lunches. Howard Binsted will normally produce this, with David Harding standing by to cover, as this week. 22 members attended on Monday, 11 July, plus one guest speaker. As usual, Dunkerleys did us proud, with some delicious haddock thermidor followed by strawberry crumble.
The club received a card from Maureen Bain on behalf of the Friends of Deal Hospital, thanking the members for their support and contributions, which will be applied to the Minor Injuries Unit. The Almoner gave his usual resumé of those who were indisposed, and was thanked by the President for all he does to keep them in contact. Then came the wine draw, which was won by Ben Finney, who donated his bottle to the Hospital Fête. President Paul Robbins launched an appeal for more prizes, and thanked Robin Norris for his generous donations. Then came the time for Marlene Burnham to introduce this month’s speaker, who was Paulq Murphy from Castle Community School, (soon to be called the Goodwins Academy.) Paula is taking seven students (two boys and five girls) out to Hunsur in Southwest India in October. This is part of the Gerry Martin Project, which aims to give youngsters the chance to engage in vital activities to help rural Indian communities, such as digging wells or building a school, whilst learning what it is like to live in very basic conditions. Several students have raised much of the £2500 they each need, by efforts such as running marathons and sponsored sailing. One or two, however, need help from such as the Rotary Club of Deal to help with the balance. The membership indicated that they were prepared to be very supportive.
