Weekly Meeting 21 October 2013

There was a good turn-out of Rotarians with 26 attending the business meeting.

It being Trafalgar Day, 1st Vice President Ian Dunkerley treated each person present to a tot of rum, gave a brief talk informing members why the British defeated the French at the Battle of Trafalgar and toasted the memory of Admiral Lord Nelson.

Admiral Lord Nelson.

Born on 29 September 1758 in Burnham Thorpe, Norfolk, Horatio Nelson was the sixth of the 11 children of a clergyman. He joined the navy aged 12, on a ship commanded by a maternal uncle. He became a captain at 20, and saw service in the West Indies, Baltic and Canada. He married Frances Nisbet in 1787 in Nevis, and returned to England with his bride to spend the next five years on half-pay, frustrated at the lack of a command. Over the period 1794 to 1805, under Nelson's leadership, the Royal Navy proved its supremacy over the French. His most famous engagement, at Cape Trafalgar, saved Britain from threat of invasion by Napoleon, but it would be his last. Before the battle on 21 October 1805, Nelson sent out the famous signal to his fleet 'England expects that every man will do his duty'. He was killed by a French sniper a few hours later while leading the attack on the combined French and Spanish fleet. His body was preserved in brandy and transported back to England where he was given a state funeral.

The secretary reminded those going to Conference that each club will be given a questionnaire to complete. In addition each member will have an envelope; it is requested that these be left in the Congress Theatre.

The club was very pleased to welcome back PP Tony Nicholls who announced that the 200 Club draws will recommence when all subs have been paid. It is therefore requested all outstanding subs be paid immediately so that he will know who is to be included in the weekly draws.

Tony was the winner of the weekly wine draw and promptly handed to PP Pat Heath, presumably for the next hospital fete.

The previous week was great for the Farrer family with Rita winning the
