Our Meeting of 19 January
We were joined by partners, friends and families for seafaring fare at the Geelong Boat House at Western Beach.
The Evening’s Program – Dining Safely at Sea
Conscious of the adage that its “women and children first”, but not sure of whether such applied to priority in the service of the meal or egress from a sinking vessel, the Bulletin Editor joined the ladies and Margaret on the foredeck (or was it the stern?) of the good ship “Geelong Boat House” for a fine dinner of fish and quips.
