G‘day Guys
When I was a young Tin Soldier boy I remember well the fantastic stories my mum & dad used to tell - the one that I remember very well was never-ever to cry ―WOLF‖ unless of course you really meant it! Boy-o-Boy I must tell you that whilst publishing this magazine there have been many times when I felt like crying ―WOLF‖ or at least a ―bark‖ or a strong ―cough‖
However, I am supposedly to be in the IT in- dustry and to have used PC‘s for many years! Therefore this should not be a hassle for me or at least that is what our editor George told me! Un- beknown to George I had never ever used a Desk Top Publishing software package let alone had any design and layout experience, and certainly was not at all familiar with the software applica- tion that George gave me. Worse than that I had

the daunting task of being asked to create a new ―BULL‖ with a modern colourful out-look and as you know I am a new Rotary member, thereby, never had the benefit of reading previous issues of the ―BULL‖ in fact ―if I had‖ I would probably have thought twice about taking on this task! Because, after looking at previous issues, I immediately became very concerned - I found them to be of a very high professional formal standard, whereby, I quote my words to George ―it will be an hard act to follow‖. Albeit my mum always told me never to be a ―Jibber‖. To this day I still do not know what a Jibber is? Although, she always used to finish by saying a winner never quits and a quitter never wins, so I think I have the drift of what she was saying
This magazine is probably a little larger than previous issues as it includes informa- tion back dated 12 months to May-07, al- beit, the size will always be determined by the information that you provide. Please bear this in mind, as without our members input The ―BULL‖ would probably dry up and cease to be of interest. Please supply whatever you think appropriate, bear in mind we haven't the expert professional skills of a panel of censors, albeit, my mum always told me to beware of experts! She used to describe experts as ex drips under pressure! Anyone prepared to step forward the position is vacant!
If you have any complaints please forward them only to George (I’m not Larking about this)
Note! if you do like this new ―BULL‖ George & I would be pleased to accept your wolf whistles as a sign of approval!
If you don't approve then I‘m afraid I will have to cry ―WOLF‖ and put you all to the mercy of my mum
Seriously though, the ―BULL‖ is designed primarily with information & interest meant
only for us fellow Hornchurch and Upmin- ster Rotarians. Without your encouragement it will not exist, hopefully with your support & Wolf Whistles - I will look forward to producing many more issues of the ―BULL‖
