Wingate Road Runners Newsflash IN CLOSING Points to Ponder • The nicest thing about the future is that it always starts tomorrow. • Money will buy a fine dog, but only kindness will make him wag his tail. • How come it takes so little time for a child, who is afraid of the dark, to become a teenager who wants to stay out all night? • Business conventions are important because they demonstrate how many people a company can operate without. • Why is it that at class reunions you feel younger than everyone else looks? • No one ever says 'It's only a game' when their team is winning. • I've reached the age where the happy hour is a nap. • The trouble with bucket seats is that not everybody has the same size bucket. • Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Corvette than a Clio. • And two special thoughts for the upcoming holidays: • Seat belts are not as confining as wheelchairs. • There are worse things than getting a call for a wrong number at 4 AM. It could be a right number. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Wingate RR wishes everyone who celebrates their birthday a blessed day and a year filled with happiness, love, friends and everything nice. January Birthday’s 3 January – Mike Williams 9 January – Basil Faktor 12 January – Leoni Els 20 January – Yvette Human 21 January – Toinette vd Merwe 25 January – Carole de Waal 26 January – Kozanne Zeegers 26 January – Dave v Veenhuyzen Until next week, Happy Running!
