From the amount of enquires we have had the campout should be a great weekend, so if you can’t come out and camp pop out for a day trip (or two). Don’t forget there will be no St Josephs at all this month. The Jam Session will be at the Pitt Stop this month as Tyson has been asked to perform at the Gympie Muster (Good on ya Mate) so the Lucas’s will be travelling . The Jam at Sue and Laurie’s was well attended, with some great stews and soups supplied by our wonderful cooks in the club. The Pallarenda Jam and Family Day will be held on the 23rd so we look forward to seeing you all there. Ladies, would you be kind enough to bring a plate for morning and afternoon teas. We will have a free sausage sizzle as usual for lunch. I would like to wish Keith Bagley a speedy recovery after his bad fall and hospitalisation. Keith has once again excelled with some great Trophies for our Talent Search. Speaking of the Talent Search, nominations are now available either on the web or from Maureen. A reminder that memberships are now overdue so if you are unfinancial this could be your last magazine. Anybody else who may be on the sick list get well soon ‘cause we miss you.

Chook falls off and is killed instantly. As the ambulance takes the body away, Simmo says,"Someone should go and tell his wife." Macca says, "OK, I`m pretty good at that sensitive stuff, I'll do it." Two hours later, Macca comes back carrying a slab of XXXX. Simmo says,"Where did you get that, Macca?" "Chook's missus gave it to me." "That's unbelievable, you told the lady her husband was dead and she gave you beer?" Macca says, "Well not exactly. When she answered the door, I said to her, "You must be Chook`s widow." She said, "No, I'm not a widow." And I said, "Wanna bet me a slab?" BIG GUN COUNTRY With BARRY CANNON Programme Times: 6pm til 10pm SUNDAY…..

It's tacky to take an esky to church. If you have to vacuum the bed, it's time to change the sheets. Even if you're certain you're included in the will, it's rude to take your ute and trailer to the funeral. PERSONAL HYGIENE - While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this should be done in private, using one's OWN ute keys. Extensive use of deodorant can only delay bathing by a few days. DRIVING ETIQUETTE - Dim your headlights for approaching vehicles, even if your gun's loaded and the roo's in your rifle sight. When entering a roundabout, the vehicle with the largest roo bar doesn't always have the right of way. Very proud to be a sponsor of the Townsville and Thuringowa Country Music Association Inc. Featuring Anne Kirkpatrick and Jim Arneman Continuing the age old Slim Dusty Family Tour tradition Slim’s daughter Anne Kirkpatrick, her son Jim Arneman with some of their musical friends are heading out on the road for a special series of Family & Friends concerts.
