Recreio Hockey Newsletter - July/August 2004


The heat is on

Those of you who have been away for any period of time will probably have forgotten the high humidity that goes with the Hong Kong heat. So when are you coming back to enjoy it?


A G M

The players held their Annual General Meeting in late July. Here's a summary of the meeting.


Thanks Gerry

Due to a change in work commitments, Gerry Xavier will no longer be able to commit his time and energy as much as before. Over the past two years, Gerry was head coach of the ladies' teams, as well as captain of the Men's C team. The newsletter would like to thank him for his contribution to the Club and the hockey section in particular.


Beautiful Pictures

With little else to report by way of hockey, I thought you'd like to take a look at a few pics that a friend of mine sent me. Some of them are simply breath-taking. Hope you enjoy the view.


Voices from the past

The newsletter's circulation is set to spread after a link was added to the site A Diaspora Macaense na America, thanks to Horatio F. Ozorio. We also heard from Bosco Correa, who sends his best wishes to those who remember him.


Jokes

Can't have a newsletter without our monthly share of jokes, now can we? We have our regular jokes, a few laughs at what teachers think of their students, and a light-hearted look at football.


The Daily Guru

The Daily Guru is a site that is both sombre and light-hearted. Here are a few excerpts that came my way.


Quotes

"In a gentle way, you can shake the world". These words were spoken by that great ambassador of non-violence, Mahatma Gandhi. This month's quotes are in a similar vein.

We also have another page of quotes dedicated to Mother Teresa.


Birthdays and anniversaries

Those celebrating birthdays or anniversaries in July or August include:


Links

We have a page of links, and we'll keep adding to it as time goes on.

These links will include anti-virus sites, funny pages, and others that you might enjoy.
