Toys for Tots

Just a reminder that this Saturday (December 4th) is Toys for Tots day!

What is "Toys for tots"? – A day when you can donate toys for sick and disadvantaged children.

Why? – Because not everyone is as lucky as us, so this year lets put a smile on the faces of as many sick kids as possible.

And – It’s a great excuse to be social and catch up for a drink. Bring along any friends you wish, the more the merrier. Stop by for an hour or stay all day, the choice is yours.

Where? –The Pyrmont Point Hotel (Corner of Harris St and John St in Pyrmont)

When? – This Saturday, the 4th December

2pm till 6pm - Beer Garden at rear of pub (Children welcome) 6pm till 10pm - Upstairs Bar (Adults only)

What do I need to bring? – An unwrapped present suitable for a child aged 1 to 16.

Hope to see as many of you as possible on Saturday,

Peter Lee

Stolen Bike

FERGUS'S BIKE STOLEN FROM HOME - KEEP AN EYE OUT PLEASE

Squadristas, tifosi and assorted club members,

Until certain substances are legalised we will continue to suffer the ignominy of break and enter. Friday afternoon a glass door was kicked in, the alarm went off and my neighbours came running … but not before a skinny six footer with short brown/ginger hair was seen struggling up Kendall Street on my commuter bike. See photo below.

Thank you Sergeant Barros, Anna, Linda, Cecilia, and Justin.

Ivory in colour, frame and rims. No branding. Freewheel. Single hydraulic brake on the back wheel. Carbon straight bars. Selle Italia Storika saddle (two tone light brown and brass studs!). Hope axles. Won't be hard to spot. Nothing else like on the road!

If you spot it could you call me on 0418 609 371 or Sergeant Barros at Rose Bay Police on 9362 6399.

Cheers, Fergus Neilson.
