Hi, Join us for a cycle around the city to work off some of those Christmas excesses! Dave will be jumping on the 7.58 train at Heatherdale Station (Belgrave line) which will get into Richmond about 8.33. The ride will kick off from Richmond Station around 8.45. We will meet up outside Mr Hollywood Pizza on Swan Street just outside the Station. See pin here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/6zweYoKknTQwe7VM8 We'll leave the Station and head South on Punt Road towards St Kilda. Then we will just see where it takes us! Maybe we'll do a lap around Albert Park lake, then head North West up towards Port Melbourne and continue on our way! We can just casually ride along for a few hour's exploring, and stop for a coffee and a bite to eat somewhere in the middle before heading back to Richmond Station! **YOUR BIKE** Suitable for any well maintained bike **Note: End time is a guesstimate only** **ESSENTIAL ITEMS** Spare tube, puncture kit, pump, basic tools - good to have with you. Rain & warm gear (according to conditions) Plenty of water for the distance especially if it's going to be hot! Always better to have too much than enough! Check your app for any changes the night before, and on the day of the ride, as the ride may be cancelled in the event of extreme weather or other unforeseen circumstances. **If you realise you cannot make it to the ride please change your RSVP to 'NO' immediately even if you are still on the Waitlist.** "Liability Waiver: The organizer of this group cannot accept any liability for any loss, damage, injury, or accident to participants or their property at this event.

The optimum computing machine is a subject many of us have studied. If you were building one how would you design it? First the computer should be able to compute with perfect accuracy on any problem in the universe and produce answers which were always and invariably right. Second the computer would have to be swift, working much more quickly than the problem and process could be vocally articulated. Third the computer would have to be able to handle large numbers of variables and large numbers of problems simultaneously. Forth, the computer would have to be able to evaluate its own data and there would have to remain available within it not only a record of its former conclusions but the evaluations leading to those conclusions. Fifth, the computer would have to be served by a memory bank of nearly infinite capacity and would have to be available to the analytical portion of the computer in the smallest fractions of a second. Sixth, the computer would have to be able to rearrange former conclusions or alter them in the light of new experience. Seventh, the computer would need no exterior director, but would be entirely self determined about its programing guided only by the necessity –value of the solution which it itself would determine. Eight the computer should be self servicing and self arming against present and future damage and would be able to estimate future damage. Ninth the computer should be served by perception by which it could determine necessity –value. Tenth ,the memory bank should store perceptions as perceived ,consecutive with time received with the smallest possible time divisions between perception .It would then store in color-Visio (moving),tone audio (flowing),odor ,tactile and self sensation ,all of them cross –coordinated . Eleventh, for the purposes of solutions, it would have to be able to create new situations and imagine new perceptions hitherto not perceived and should be able to conceive these to itself in terms of tone –audio ,color-visio ,odor, tactile, and self sensation –and should be able to file anything so conceived as imagined ,labeled “memories” Twelfth, the entire machine should be portable. It might be somewhat astonishing at first to conceive such a computer .But the fact is, the machine is in existence .There are billions of them in use today and many ,many more billions have been made and used in the past . In fact you’ve got one .for we are dealing with the human mind. L.RON .HUBBARD Do you want to learn how the mind works?Then do not miss this meetup. RSVP now !!

🌿 **The Social Stroll Plan** Date & Time: 27 December, 1pm Start/Finish: Rushall Station car park (station entrance) Distance/Duration: ~10km, ~3 hours (leisurely pace with stops) 🚶 **Segment 1: Rushall Station → Merri Creek Circuit** - Kick off with a flirty, social vibe—think light banter and playful “post‑Christmas detox” jokes. - The Merri Creek bushland offers shaded paths, bird calls, and a gentle warm‑up for the legs. - Incorporate a “Grievance Alignment Chart” moment: everyone shares one funny holiday grievance (too much pudding, awkward family karaoke) as a satirical ritual. 🌊 **Segment 2: Merri Creek → Dights Falls (Yarra Bend Park)** - Arrive at Dights Falls, where the Yarra cascades over the historic weir. - Pause for a mini‑ritual: “Dance of the Falls”—a playful group stretch or sway, channeling the Eat Drink Danc ethos. Yoga instructors wanted otherwise we'll learn Gangnam style dancing from a Kpop YouTube video. This certainly assists in my attempt to start a Korean boy band! - Snap group photos with the falls as backdrop—badge‑worthy material for your satirical campaign kits. ☕ **Segment 3: Dights Falls → Studley Park & Studley Park Boathouse** - Meander through Studley Park picnic areas, weaving in bushland and river views. - Arrive at the Studley Park Boathouse for coffee, snacks, and a cheeky toast to “post‑Xmas drop tour hair and relax vibes.” - Suggested ritual: “Compliance Log of Indulgence”—each person logs their chosen snack as part of the satirical kit. 🌳 **Segment 4: Return via Yarra Bend → Rushall Station** - Stroll back along the Yarra Bend bushland, soaking in late‑afternoon light. - Close with a “Re‑Education Pamphlet” reflection: what indulgence will you drop before the Kokoda prep walk? - Finish at Rushall Station car park, energized but relaxed. 🎭 **Thematic Layering** - Eat Drink Danc Melbourne spirit: playful rituals, spontaneous stretches, satirical mottos. - Post‑Christmas vibes: light detox humor, relaxed pace, indulgence logs. - Preparation for Kokoda 1000 Steps (Jan 4): - Treat this as a training stroll—steady pace, mindful breathing, light climbs and dumb jokes and an attempt to create a bachelorette style recruitment drive for groupies for the Korean boy band I'm planning without the swimsuit competition. - Encourage group camaraderie: “If we can laugh through 10km, we can climb 1000 steps.” 🪧 **Suggested Motifs & Slogans** - “Falls, Feasts & Footsteps” – motto for the day. - Badges: - Commissar of Coffee (for the first to order at the boathouse) - Dance Marshal of Dights (for leading the falls stretch) - Studley Snack Auditor (for logging indulgences) --- This stroll becomes more than a walk—it’s a social satire circuit, a playful ritual of bushland, falls, coffee, and camaraderie, all while gently prepping for the Kokoda 1000 steps climb and walk next week

In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc..
