First Report of 2010

Famous first speeches -

Fellow-Citizens of the Senate and of the House of Representatives: AMONG the vicissitudes incident to life no event could have filled me with greater anxieties than that of which the notification was transmitted by your order, and received on the 14th day of the present month, blah blah blah.
George Washington

Your Majesties, Your Highnesses, Distinguished Guests, Comrades and Friends:
Today, all of us do, by our presence here, and by our celebrations in other parts of our country and the world,confer glory and hope to newborn liberty, blah, blah, blah.
Nelson Mandela

Space... the Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no man has gone before

The Young Ones – Episode 1

‘Gentleman, there has been some emails and texts asking whether there will be a ride tonight.
Please note that as your captain I wish to ensure of your safety and have requested advice from the MET office and they have suggested that I undertake a course inspection at 3.30.
I have spoken with Vice and this we will do and ensure that all health and safety requirements are met should we decide that a ride will ensue.
Keep your emails and texts open.
Thanks’

The Ride – (to the tune of walking in a winter wonderland)

Click Play for Music!


Mobile rings, the moos are listening
Do we ride, or do we stay in
The captain does right
We are out tonight
Riding in a winter wonderland

14 moos met at the legion
Off to the woods, we went cyclin’
We got to the top
And did a few drops
Sliding in a winter wonderland

In the woods Crockett smashed some snowmen
The boys they snowballed him onto the ground

Pealy mentioned Garlic
They said No Man
But we can ride the beast
On any ground

Later on, it was sledges
As we slid on our arses
Down six o’clock field
The speed did not yield
Sledging in a winter wonderland

In the Moos, we ride in any weather
Me Vice Gaz, Option Crock and Feather
Beaker, Mark, Binnie
Ant, Reg, and Dickie
Knotty, Andy – winter wonderland

Back at HQ

Gordon and Crock were discussing (well Crockett did all the talking) how Crockett would love to marry his daughter and become Gordon’s Son in Law – could you imagine that family get together with ‘Digger’ Barnes in attention – you may just see Crockett going through a glass window.

Some body gate-crashed a fellow Moo’s house prior to the ride and then had the nerve to borrow £10, then had the nerve not to go sledging, then had the nerve to bugger off early and not even spend the borrowed money for a pint – Moo Merit alert !!!!

Moo Confidential

It has been discovered that under the Constitution of The Club that rule 23.4 ‘Moo Confidential’ states that after 2-years of retaining classified Moo stories about fellow members – we are free to reveal such information to the general public. So as from today, the first Moo Confidential fact is –

Mr Mark ‘Rivaldo’ Howells while at a house party at Dickie Watkins’s was seen to be wearing a pair of ladies knickers over his head – these were deemed to be from the laundry basket. After leaving said party and moving on to – I believe the household of the Watkins brother’s parents he then revealed the fact that he still had them in his pocket.

Main event of the evening was Option’s birthday drink – happy birthday Rob – I hope it stayed down when you got home?

Points to note for the year ahead –

· New interactive Calendar is up and running and will soon be populated
· Newsletter will be produced By Vice
· Merits will be adhered to
· Ride reports will be done and shared during the year, at the Captains discretion

Those that are going to Brechfa, for the winter trip – please look out for a request from Vice for payment, Vice and I have covered the deposit, so we will be asking for full payment soon.

I think that is enough from me, just like to finish by thanking all the boys that rode, it turned out to be a great night’s entertainment. Sorry for the boys that couldn’t get here and missed out, but that’s your own faults for living so bloody far away!!!

Keep Mooing
