Lunch meeting, February 9th 2008. Numbers were a little reduced at this first function of the new year but around twenty members met for our bi-monthly lunch at the Queensland Irish Club in Brisbane to enjoy good company, food and some informal entertainment. We wish a speedy recovery to those members who were unable to attend because of illness. Poet's Corner
John Corlett read some poetry and added some comments about Sir William Hillary, founder of the National Lifeboat Institute and great grandfather of Sir Edmund, the first person to climb Mt Everest. Sir Ed passed away recently in New Zealand. They both contributed in their own ways to the benefit of society.
Alan's Ad-lib
Alan Cain gave us another of his amusing ditties on the arcane world of computer technology.
