A number of members have enquired about replacing the fellowship of our Week 3 meeting. As an experiment I have decided to institute the inaugural Presidents Lunch. Whilst this sounds impressive, basically I have decided to have lunch in the back section of the Glenferrie Hotel at 12.30 pm on Wednesday 17 July. I hope that members, partners and friends will join me, and we can have some lively conversation.
Given the amount of travel that members have been undertaking I am sure that there are some terrific stories to be told. There is no need to book, indeed no need to order a meal but I would like some idea of who might be attending so I can liaise with the hotel, especially if numbers are quite large.

Apologies to those prevented from coming because of work or other commitments, however this is an experiment and I hope it will be followed by many other functions.In this regard, Week 3 seems the perfect week for us to have excursions, be they of a social nature or educational. I would ask the membership to provide suggestions of what we might do as a Club or where we could go. I am sure given the highly intelligent and diverse nature of our membership we can come up with heaps of ideas.
