Mensans, apologies for the absence - our Blogger has been away but has now returned and will soon post an aside with wonderful photos of new adventures had.
Now for catching up!
In February we had a very interesting evening filled with fun debate afterward. Our guest speaker, Yoke, spoke about Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and it's applications in relationships whether they be professional or personal.
We had a very good turnout and around 40 Mensans made new friends, met old friends and shared a beer in good spirit.
For feedback on our March event, where we had a guest speaker regal us on the in's and out's of Air Traffic Control - I'd like to invite a fellow Mensan to email me a paragraph or two on your experience at the event. If we haven't had any volunteers by end of April, I'll ask one of the other committee members to jump in with a review.
You are free to email me at simi.deyzel@gmail.com if you would like to submit something. Also please feel free to submit any stories of note or even just write-ups of interest to the greater group. We'd be happy to publish your articles here.
On to the T-Shirts, the following two slogans were chosen:
We are currently having a test batch be printed and will open up orders soon. Please remember that you can order Jackets, Beanies, Cooler Bags and Shirts locally and also remember that you have the international online shop at your disposal as well. Schalkwyk van der Merwe can be contacted regarding merchandise: schalkwykvdm@hotmail.com
Lastly, due to circumstances beyond our control, we had to move up the bi-annual games
evening to April, as our scheduled Speaker couldn't make it.
Everyone had an awesome time and if Beverley's comments are anything to go by, you
should try your best to make it to the next one:
"Let's just say that Nesquick, 94.7, Jan van Riebeeck and Ground Zero will never be the
same again..."

with you we will both be wrong”.
“I’m not stupid
– I’ve been tested”.
