Not Minutes - Hours

The Committee at full throttle.  In preparation for the AGM I was entering the Kirk early morning when, rather alarmingly, the ex-Chairman slowed down and honked his horn at me.  He didn't have a car - he explained it was his Harpo Marx tribute.  Unphased, l then listened to him say he was away doon to the Hoy Pier for a bag of claes.  He was looking very dirty and unkempt.  He had tried to get a shower at the Hoy Hostel.  He continued by asking if we had a shower or bath at the Bolt Hole.  The meeting didn't mention the amount of hens in Romania.  Beliveve me it was the only thing that wasn't. What was mentioned though was the Barnacle Club.


Petula Clark is still 92.
