    Performances October 6, 7, 8, 13, 14, 15 Three episodes of the classic TV series are brought to life on stage. Written by John Cleese & Connie Booth. Music by Dennis Wilson By Special Arrangement With Samuel French and Origin Theatrical Auditions Saturday June 18, Sunday June 19 Thurgoona Community Centre 10 Kosciuszko Road, Thurgoona NSW 2640 Director: Alex 0410 933 582 FAWLTY TOWERS - EPISODE GUIDE ACT ONE – THE GERMANS Sybil is in hospital for her ingrowing toenail. “Perhaps they'll have it mounted for me,” mutters Basil as he tries to cope during her absence. The fire-drill ends in chaos with Basil knocked out by the moose’s head in the lobby. The deranged host then encounters the Germans and tells them the “truth” about their Fatherland… ACT TWO – COMMUNICATION PROBLEMS It’s not a wise man who entrusts his furtive winnings on the horses to an absent-minded geriatric Major, but Basil was never known for that quality. Parting with those ill-gotten gains was Basil’s first mistake; his second was to tangle with the intermittently deaf Mrs Richards. ACT THREE – WALDORF SALAD Mine host's penny-pinching catches up with him as an American guest demands the quality of service not normally associated with the “Torquay Riviera”, as Basil calls his neck of the woods. A Waldorf Salad is not part of Fawlty Towers' standard culinary repertoire, nor is a Screwdriver to be found on the hotel's drinks list… FAWLTY TOWERS – THE REGULARS BASIL FAWLTY (John Cleese) The hotel manager from hell, Basil seems convinced that Fawlty Towers would be a top-rate establishment, if only he didn't have to bother with the guests.

Seattle IOM Update Annual Summary – December 2016 Washington State IOM Radio Sailing: Washington state radio sailing at Seattle Model Yacht Club is as vibrant as ever, and it has a great vane and radio sailing history here: http://www.ibextrax.com/Update/201306.pdf. 2010 marked the beginning of our thriving International One Metre (IOM) fleet, in addition to the established Victoria fleet still sailing on Greenlake. Locally we’re having fun sailing these thoroughbred IOMs cleanly and competitively in three special radio sailing venues. We sail IOMs at Coulon Park and Surprise Lake every month March – October. On Fidalgo Island the Deception Pass MYC sails year-round on Sundays and Wednesdays, as they don’t know when to stop. Actually they don’t stop because their venue is located in the Olympic Mountains rain shadow, which is amazingly effective at driving away rain, but not the wind. We habitually comingle our IOMs like one big club at these three venues: Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park: 1201 Lake Washington Blvd., Renton, WA: This exceptional park on Lake Washington is our SMYC home for IOMs.

    International 2.4 Metre Class <[email protected]> 28. kesäkuuta 2014 19.45 Newsletter Information International 2.4mR Newsletter - June 2014 Edited by Jackie Gay Executive Report: 2.4mR One Design Rule by Bruce Millar, Class President For your Executive team this was our big project for 2014 - to create, consult with our sailors/owners and vote upon the new set of class rules for the One Design. The task - inevitably - took longer than I anticipated, however overall the process, led by Stellan Berlin and the Technical Committed, was thorough and considered. We received lots of input and the team input many hours of work reviewing and incorporating the feedback received. I was pleasantly surprised by the wide participation of people worldwide - the sign of a healthy debate and class. We hope that this participation continues with everything we do. The proposed new rule was approved with overwhelming majority and we happy to put the matter to rest now that the rule is complete. The rules can be found here: http://www.inter24metre.org/24mr-ica/class-rules/ The Executive will now move on and focus on 2.4mR issues and preparing for the AGM to be held at the Open Worlds in Toronto in September/October. Next winter we will focus on cleaning up the 2.4mR rules and working with some of the ideas that came out through the recent process. I will now be concentrating on the business side of the One Design rule: manufacturers, paperwork trails and certification. It will be up to each country to measure and certify boats.
