Heidi Murphy … Ian Johnstone 27. Scott Crisp … Bomber SNAPDRAGON’S JOKE Why did I get divorced? Well, last week was my birthday. My wife didn't wish me a happy birthday. My parents forgot and so did my kids. I went to work and even my colleagues didn't wish me a happy birthday. As I entered my office, my secretary said, "Happy birthday, boss!" I felt so special. She asked me out for lunch. After lunch, she invited me to her apartment. We went there and she said, "Do you mind if I go into the bedroom for a minute?" "Okay," I said. She came out 5 minutes later with a birthday cake, my wife, my parents, my kids, my friends, & my colleagues all yelling, "SURPRISE!!!" while I was waiting on the sofa... naked District Diary Wednesday 7th Omeo to Bright Bus Service depart ..8.30am ..arrive 11.00am Bright to Omeo Bus Service depart..1.20pm . arrive 3.30pm Gym Class Swifts Creek Hall ................... 5.00pm – 6.00pm Omeo High Country Men’s Shed open ................... 10.00am Omeo Golf Club ‘Twilight Golf’ start ......... 4.30pm Thursday 8th Swifts Creek & Ensay Playgroup .............. 10.30 to 12.00pm Omeo Opportunity Shop .............................. 12.30 to 3.30pm Karate Class Swifts Creek Hall ............................... 5.00pm Barefoot Bowls Swifts Creek ................................... 5.00pm Friday 9th Omeo to Bright Bus Service depart ..8.30am ..arrive 11.00am Bright to Omeo Bus Service depart..1.20pm . arrive 3.30pm Joker Poker Benambra Hotel Jackpot ................... $2070.00 LifeBall Netball Courts Swifts Creek ..................... 11.00am Rhyme Time at the Shire Offices ............. 10.30am-11.00am Joker Poker Golden Age Jackpot ........................... $1728.00 In recess till further notice Saturday 10th AA. meeting 1st Saturday of month, CFA rooms....... 2.00pm Catholic Church Mass Swifts Creek ................ 6.30pm Omeo Lions High Country Market Courthouse Gardens Sunday 11t Catholic Church Mass Omeo .................................... 9.00am Catholic Church Mass Benambra ......................... .11.00am Anglican Church Holy Communion Ensay .............. 9.30am Anglican Church Holy Communion Omeo ............ 11.00am Monday 12th Omeo to Bright Bus Service depart ..8.30am ..arrive 11.00am Bright to Omeo Bus Service depart..1.20pm . arrive 3.30pm Tuesday 13th Gym Class Swifts Creek Hall ...................... 9.30-10.30am Omeo Tennis Club ‘ Night Tennis ‘ ........................ 6.00pm NB.
