COFFEE POINTERS I WHAT'S ON THIS WEEK

31 March 2020

Dear reader,
In our new reality of rapidly changing pronouncements from the Prime Minister and the Premier we are being bombarded by thousands of words everyday. To provide some relief from the tsunami of information crashing in on us we are offering suggestions of lighthearted things to do while sitting around at home.

We wish all members good health and encourage everyone suffering from a sense of disbelieve about what is confronting Club and the Community to practice the recommended preventative hygiene measures to minimise the impact of the virus on our families and people around us.
