-Your reporter is pleased to record that, in the absence of a walks report, the notes for the July meeting will be quite brief. In fact he believes the July meeting should. be kept to a minimum each year, which means that the transcription of the notes into a (more or less) readable summary will take only 20 minutes instead of the usual 1 - 14.41 hours, and one can complete one's taxation return in the remaining time (I hope).

+The Treasurer told us June had been a healthy month financially, with a good excess of income over outlay, and finishing with $1,990 in the working funds. There was, we repeat, no walks report, and notes of Federation affairs have already been covered in the magazine.
