Members are invited to bring up to 15 slides each to illustrate the theme "Ice".

If you know someone who mentions not receiving it, you might suggest that a cheque directed to our Chief Purser would rectify the situation! We would like to remind members that if they should be planning a move, a timely advice of address change would be appreciated by T. M. H . S. "Scanners" returned by the Post Office cost us money and cause stress for our mailing crew, so your assistance will be appreciated. The October Meeting was a success, and we would like to thank all those members who brought slides illustrating their summer shipwatching act i vities and all sorts of other strange things! Our members never cease to amaze us at our open slide nights and we hope for more of the same at our theme night in January.
