2 WELCOME to your May issue of Cheetahs Chatter It s been an interesting month for the Cheetahs. We have welcomed back a couple of swimmers from the past & unfortunately seen a some of our members move out of Sydney to regional centres or move out of the city to the burbs in their employment making it difficult to get to Thursday night swimming. Hopefully we will see them poolside or socially periodically during the year. MONTHLY POINT SCORE Sean Neale has made a welcome return to swimming with the Cheetahs & convincingly won the April Monthly Point Score with 60 points. Steve Hammond continued his good form With 51 points followed by the ever consistent Alex Zavgorodniy (50), Michael Holt (48) & John Elliott (45).

3 WHY ARE PEOPLE SO UNKIND A couple of Cheetahs are supporters of the famous St George Illawarra rugby league team & were bombarded with most unkind s following a succession of recent horrific results when the team didn t score any points. Here are a smattering of some of those distasteful comments.. FRENCH AFFAIR Captain Keevers recently took a squad of swimmers from the French School in Sydney to Kuala Lumpur to compete in Asia-Pacific championships for French Schools. Our correspondent on the Asia desk reports that overall the squad was successful but there were some accommodation issues which precluded the coach partaking in traditional French delicacies like champagne,cognac etc. When my wife wears a St George jumper to bed I know I m not going to score. Kind of reminds me of my schoolies adventures.. totally unable to score in Queensland. Then there was the story of the drug squad cancelling the Dragon s training session because of some unidentified white powder found on the ground only to be told it was the try line. These s are totally unnecessary & upsetting to the recipients. Please discuss. WHO was THE CHEETAH Who was the Cheetah who took Denis Ward for an outing in his wheel chair only to tip him out of the chair into the garden???? Who was the Cheetah who recently bought a new car, & being totally overwhelmed with the new technology, didn t know how to turn the engine off. Nor did his wife!!! --- These photos need no comment!!! --- may 2016
