Those meetings would drive me crazy 2old . The games will be waiting for you, so don't stress. When I retired, I began playing more golf. Told myself if I wasn't happy with course conditions, staff, etc., don't gripe if you won't be part of the solution. Ran for a position on the Board of Directors and "won" a three-year term. Was reelected to my second three-year term beginning in 2021. Bylaws allow only two consecutive terms and, when I finish this one in 2023, that will be more than enough for me. It's been enjoyable, though takes lots of time. We strive to have a "mix" on the Board. Need some of us old codgers that have the time to perform various tasks. Need some of the younger folks, most still working, to use their talents and communication skills so folks don't think a bunch of senile old folks are making all the decisions. And, we have worked hard promoting a gender mix on the Board. For years, it was sinful to think about a lady serving on the Board. Today, we have two super ladies on the nine-member Board and treasure their input and hard work. I enjoy the mental exercise!!! I know my mind has slipped in the past few years. If I sit and do nothing but watch 'Price Is Right" reruns all day, as far as I'm concerned they can haul me to the nursing home!

I have a bit on at the moment, so not sure when I will be fully back with the games. Everything is OK, just a bit busy. Hoping all is good in your world.

I am hoping you can eat outside and keep a reasonable distance from each other. Enjoy Dusty . We went out for lunch at the hotel in upmarket Unley ( the most expensive suburb the buy homes in) The hotel was very spacious in dining room I counted about 15 customers in a huge room and the closest table to us that was being used was a good 20 feet away from us, so I felt reasonably comfortable. I should have taken a photo it’s all very modern ..and spaced out nicely into smaller group areas with booth type seating ….and the very spacious area where we were joybelle

Did the prices match the upmarket suburb? joybelle The food menu varied chicken schnitzel / fish / other dishes were no dearer than other places so it cost us $50 for our food / Drinks / hubs had a beer I had sparkling water with a slice of lemon 🍋 It was very ultra modern with huge gas heaters that look like a built in fire slow combustion heater , and NO loud music 🎶
