In attendance – GA, FB, AB-W, MC, CD, DF, JG, TH, PL, TM, CM, KS, BY, MS and an unfit RH joined us for the meeting.  We welcomed a new member, Malcolm Sage who accepted the nickname ‘Herbie’ – but the Chair has reservations on this soubriquet on the grounds that it is infra dig.

Toasts to England’s U20s for winning the World Cup and somewhat prematurely (as observed by the Chair) to the Lions for winning a match against a local side.

Crocks collected £2.80 for 2s but was short changed on the carry-over.

Geezer cards raised £4.40, includes 60p from Windscale unpaid from last week and swears a further £2.80p.

The minutes of the previous meeting were accepted and no matters were arising.  The match against Beamish Park will take place on Monday 26 June and is be well supported and Jocks is arranging coffee/bacon sandwiches beforehand.

The Chair is looking into the possibility of an away day at Bedlington on 12 July to avoid the rescheduled Seniors’ Invitation Day – let us hope it is more successful than Whitley Bay.   Dewey is still not receiving the minutes and the Chair asked him to write down his email address.  This he did but it was not forwarded to the Chair.   Nor was Herbie’s email address.   Hurry home Kwouk.
