Yeah I agree Dicky

Really enjoyed his previous talk. Inside information about the Discus disease.

That and the fact he can knock off two pies and remain skinny (totes jelly)

Missed his last talk. Gonna try and get to the next one. Hopefully work eases up a bit and I can get along to meetings more often.
There have been a lot of talks in recent times that I would love to have attended. Committee doing a pretty good job of keeping meetings interesting.

The PCS meeting planned for July has some changes.

 

Dr Richmond Loh can no longer make it and had to cancel. He has a conference to attend on the same evening.

 

We are moving for another guest speaker with more details coming up as we find out.

 

The meeting will go ahead with raffle, show table and the usual items.

Hi guys,

 

Apologies to those looking forward to the talk by Richmond but we haven't been able to secure an alternative speaker tonight at such short notice. Instead we'll be showing a fish oriented movie or two tonight and putting on some pizza given the inclement non-bbq friendly weather.

 

The good news is that there will be plenty of time to do those things you never get around to at a normal meeting like check out the extensive PCS library, chat about your own fish to another member, get in a committee member's ear about a great idea for the club etc etc.

 

Hope to see you there
