Nice! Sure you would have had a unique view of things over the years!
Congrats again!!

18 years is a fair effort, is there a set years of service to qualify for life membership? I know our local club is 10 years for off field services

Today consisted of work, work and more work.
Oh and browsing this forum..lol.

Good day all round

Today involved me watching the Redbacks at the Adelaide Oval almost lose the unlosable game

1. At West Adelaide for those other than player the minimum requirement is 15 years for consideration - Changes to the constitution now allows for persons who have split service to be considered unlike previously where someone could have twenty years service but due to missing two years in the middle (life circumstances?) were not eligible (unfairly) - top change.

2. The person then needs to be nominated by a member or identified by the Directors which allows consideration by the full board --

3. If the board considers that the nomination is suitable then the nomination is placed before the members at the AGM for their vote --

Once the nomination is supported by members then the person is formally welcomed as a Life Member by the President so members present can show their congratulations ---- Whilst they are effectively a Life Member at that time the formal presentation of Medallion & certificate takes place at the end of season presentation night.

I believe this is similar to other clubs but would be most interested to learn what other do.

Yahoo! Things are getting better as the day goes on. I won the meat tray at my local tonight.
A beautiful huge slab of beef and a couple of extra steaks. Wow they look juicy.
Best of all, I managed to hide the steaks before Fort Battle-Axe sniffed out and savaged the raw slab.

Worked my backside off, just sat down with a Magnum ice cream... Yay!

Long, tiring and frustrating today. Tonight was relaxing.

Physically stuffed......

Not too bad - got some work done - house nice and clean - pretty productive really

Washed the dog.

Finally got a decent amount of sleep, now watching all the old eps of Home and Away for the week. Gotta go across the road and vote at some stage though...

Off to see Hall & Oates and Icehouse at the Barrossa soon....

sick as a dog - wished I drank so I could have a medicinal brandy

Southee, could you please let us know how the concert was, we were thinking of going but decided not to due to us buying tickets to a few other shows.
