The rise and rise of the MAMIL

Over the last decade or so, broadly in line with Olympic track cycling success and then swiftly followed by road cycling success in the Grand Tours, there has been an increasing rise in the number of (somewhat) overweight, (somewhat) balding and (somewhat) “in the midst of a mid-life crisis”, men will squeeze their flabby pale bodies in to the stretchiest of figure hugging lycra, mount their multi-thousand pound carbon bike that weighs less than their left toenail, and set themselves loose on the roads without a care in the world.

The MAMIL (Middle Aged Man in Lycra) is alive and well and roaming the streets of your neighbourhood daily. (Rupert Englander)http://medium.com/@TheMAMIL/the-rise-and-rise-of-the-mamil-342ba2e94993

Important Reminder from Management.
 
If you plan to be absent from Rotary Meetings for an extended time, please only use the above link to send an email to the Secretary with the inclusive dates of the LOA request.

Please send this email at least 5 weeks prior so that the Management Committee can be informed. This will also ensure that you are credited for all the meals that you do not have.
 
 
 
 
Message from Robert Young
 
The reading programme concluded for the year last Friday and we have succeeded in helping another 32 students at MIS.
Approx 500 in total since the scheme started.
We needed 34 tutors to make this happen even though each regular tutor has two per session, because of other commitments/holidays etc. 
Robert Young

 Quote – Kofi Annan ( former secretary-general United Nations ) 

Literacy is a bridge from misery to hope. It is a tool for daily life in modern society. It is a bulwark against poverty, and a building block of development. It is an essential complement to investments in roads, dams, clinics and factories. 

Literacy is a platform for democratization, and a vehicle for the promotion of cultural and national identity. 

For everyone everywhere, literacy is, along with education in general, a basic human right. 

Literacy is, finally, the road to human progress and the means though which every man, woman and child, can reach his or her potential.
