THE OFF SEASON
Pres Simmo and Vice Pres Rockin would like to share their plans for the “Off Season”.
“Well Simmo, we had the Presentation Night last week at CHIRNSIDE PARK COUNTRY CLUB and what a great night it was, food was great, and didn’t the trophies from LILYDALE TROPHIES come up a treat. We are nearly done for this footy season, what are you going to do in the off season?
I am hoping to find some time to get back into golf at GARDNERS RUN GOLF COURSE but before I do that I am going to start working out at LILYDALE SQUASH AND FITNESS CENTRE
Sounds like a plan - You know that I like to look after the ground, particularly the leaves near the railway line – so I am heading out to see BRUCE at YARRA GLEN TRACTORS AND MOWERS to see if they have any new equipment we could use. On my way back I am going to call into see ROD at LILYDALE SAFETY WEAR because I need some new safety equipment when I use the blower on the leaves.
Yeah, but I have to keep in Stella’s good books so I will be getting her some flowers from DARREN’S FLOWERS and taking her to SUBWAY for a meal. I am hoping that this will do the trick.
Maybe you could add a hair voucher from REVIVAL HAIR and then book a trip from LILYDALE TRAVEL.
Well, hopefully I can fit all that in as we have the rodeo coming up in January and I will have to organise TRAFFICCA to do the traffic management and I have to get some work done on the car at GLEN MAYES AUTO MECHANIC, get the dints taken out by ASHMORE PANELS, new tyres from WIDETREAD, a tune up from ULTRA TUNE LILYDALE and a tow bar fitted at LILYDALE MUFFLERS AND TOWBARS.
That is sounding pretty full on, I am planning a few barbeques over the break and will need to stock up on supplies. Drinks from WARBURTON IGA, bread from BAKERS DELIGHT and meat from CHRIS’S VILLAGE QUALITY MEATS and I will have to have the annual haircut at ROCCO’S HAIRMATE. You know I am President at WARBURTON GOLF CLUB, so I will have to make an appearance up there.
Barbies are a great idea over summer and if you need any kegs you can get them from the CROWN HOTEL and wine from ROB DOLAN WINES. I will be working on the pool too, so will call in at POOLWERX to top up on the chlorine, have some maintenance done by FALCON POOLS and get ROD at VEN BERKAL PLANT TRANSPORT to drop in the new plants.
Yeah maintenance around the house can be a killer, I have to get LASER ELECTRIC to pop out and fix the outside lights, I need to get a bit of paint from PAINT RIGHT LILYDALE to do some touch ups around the house, replace the sealer in the shower from FRANK’S SILICONE AND SEAL, the central heating has to have a service by AUSTRALIAN CLIMATE SYSTEMS LILYDALE, get the carpet replaced by E CHOICES CARPET LILYDALE, pick up the new television from DICK SMITH LILYDALE MARKET PLACE and get the new lounge suite from JOFFA’S FURNITURE. Hopefully, Vicki will be happy that I have organised all these things to be done, while she is out socialising with the Lilydale Ladies at PLATINUM RESTAURANT.
You will need a loan from ANGE PANETTA at AUSSIE LOANS to cover all that or why don’t you just buy a new house from GRAHAM REYNOLDS at RAY WHITYE LILYDALE.
Now that’s a thought – and I could buy myself some new clothes from PERC at TREVOR DUDLEY’S MENSWEAR and get Jo from FIELD OF VIEW PHOTOGRAPHY to take some photos in my new gear. Vicki will just love that.
We are both going to have to get our energy levels up. I think we will need a visit to COLD ROCK LILYDALE and BUBBA’S PIZZA which is next door.
I am a fish and chip man, so I will call into CAPTAIN K’S, which is near THE PROFESSIONAL’S
You know, we better be careful we don’t want to overload ourselves as a call may have to go in to WILLIAM MATTHEWS FUNERALS LILYDALE and insurance policies from BENDIGO BANK – LILYDALE, MT.EVELYN MOOROOLBARK could be cashed in. I think we need to stop at CHEMIST WAREHOUSE in LILYDALE or CHIRNSIDE PARK for some multi vitamins.
There is the AGM on October 28th and we will have to get the annual reports printed by SNAP PRINTING LILYDALE and then sent out by PACK AND SEND LILYDALE.
Yeah that’s pretty important and I suppose I will have to catch up with some players, and new recruits – I will take them for a coffee at DEGANI’S LILYDALE MARKET PLACE,and then it's Christmas and the CHRISTMAS TRAILER RAFFLE and in my spare time I will RELAX!"
Cheers Simmo and Rockin
