ROTARACT CORNER Wynberg Rotaract and friends joined a group of 150 people whe went to Robben Island on Saturday, to assist in cleaning the shoreline. The weather played its part, with perfect conditions, and quite a few tons of rubbish was removed. It was interesting to see just how much of Cape Town’s junk gets washed across to the island. Biffy is still looking for assistance with support for the Rotaractors who are going to be painting at Isiphiwo on Saturday 29th. Please remember the Rotaract District Challenge to collecting toiletries. Any donations will be gladly accepted, and can be brought to our meetings.
TAILPIECE For those of you who have been waiting for the details of Biffy’s “average age” research, here are the results;

Little Johnny watched his daddy’s car pass by the school playground and go into the woods. Curious, he followed the car and saw Daddy and Aunt Jane in a passionate embrace. Little Johnny found this so exciting that he could hardly contain himself as he ran home and started to tell his mother.’ Mummy, I was at the playground and I saw Daddy’s car go into the woods with Aunt Jane. I went back to look and he was giving Aunt Jane a big kiss, and then he helped her take off her shirt. Then Aunt Jane helped Daddy take his pants off, then Aunt Jane…’ At this point Mummy cut him off and said, ‘Johnny, this is such an interesting story, let’s save the rest of it for supper time. I want to see the look on Daddy’s face when you tell it tonight.’ At the dinner table that evening, Mummy asked little Johnny to tell his story. Johnny started his story, ‘I was at the playground and I saw Daddy’s car go into the woods with Aunt Jane. I went back to look and he was giving Aunt Jane a big kiss, then he helped her take off her shirt. Then Aunt Jane helped Daddy takes his pants off, then Aunt Jane and Daddy started doing the same thing that Mummy and Uncle Bill used to do when Daddy was away on the oil rigs.’ Mummy fainted! Moral: Sometimes you need to just shut up and listen to the whole story before you interrupt!
