Healthy start to the day! Friday 11 November at Anakie Recreation Reserve, DeMott’s Road. Arrive from 7.30 to 8am and join some FUN activities with local personal trainer, Kevin Saunders - or come and watch and stay on for a yummy free breakfast. Everyone can join in, mums/dads/toddlers, babes in prams - you can even come before work. You don’t have to be super-fit to take part - this is a fun event!
Geelong Art Gallery/Geelong Library/lunch. Thursday 17 November. Guided tours of the art gallery and library, followed by a lunch at Botanic on Ryrie. $5 covers bus fare, tours & lunch! There just two seats left as we go to print.
Carpet bowls: held on the first Thursday of each month at 10am at Anakie Hall on Staughton Vale Road. It’s fun; you get a little exercise, learn some skills and enjoy a great social activity. The cost is just $2 and morning tea is provided between games.
Bus trips: look out for beach trips in February and March. Community Day: Saturday 18 March. Free
stalls available to locals. There’s a walk (or you can run!) to the top of Mt Anakie, followed by bus trips (guarantee a seat by booking one early) and entry into the fire tower for commentary by an ex-spotter. At the community house, a jumping slide and face-painting is be provided for the children. All activities are FREE. Anakie Rural Fire Brigade, Anakie Primary School and other local groups have stalls and members on hand to answer all your questions.
Make new friends; catch up with old friends and connect with your community!

1st Anakie Scout Group On 16 October cubs, scouts, families and friends went on a wonderful bike ride. It was an 18 kilometre round trip from Fyansford to Breakwater and back. What a fantastic day! (The rain held off until we got back to Fyansford – whoo hoo!) Poor Alisha had her brakes jammed on the whole trip; she even had to peddle downhill! Red faced and puffing, no wonder Alisha… There will be a dress-up night on 9 November following the term theme of The Jungle Book. Regatta will be the weekend of 12/13 November; stay tuned for more hilarious pics of cubs doing great things! Red Wolf & Sahi

Hi. I have provided something different today. As we approach
what will likely be a bad mosquito season, this internet
recipe may be worth a try.
Mosquito yard spray
3 stubbies of beer 1 big bottle of cheap blue mouth wash 3 cups Epsom salts
Mix ingredients together until Epsom salts dissolve. Put into a spray bottle and use where you want to repel mosquitoes. Lasts approximately 80 days.

For those who do not, or cannot, comprehend why
Facebook exists: I am trying to make friends outside of Facebook while applying the same techniques. Every day I take a walk and tell people what I have eaten, how I feel at the moment, what I did last night, what I will do later and with whom. I give them photos of my family and pets and of me gardening, mowing the lawn, taking things apart in the garage, standing by landmarks, driving around, eating lunch and doing what we all do every day. I listen to conversations, give the “thumbs up” and say I like them. It works just like Facebook. I already have four people following me: two police officers, a private investigator and a psychiatrist.
(Thanks, Bernie Bourke, for this little gem)
Carole and Albert Hofflin invite all friends of Diane Gugger to an
afternoon tea on Friday 4 November at
3pm at Anakie Community House
