Support for THE SALVATION ARMY

Caterham Rotary Club’s

link with the local Salvation Army Church goes back many years and over the last 5 years this has grown with the development of The Christmas Toy appeal which links up with a number of local employers including Croudace Homes Group, Buxton’s Building Contractors and Linden Homes.

More recently the effects of Covid-19 has increased the pressures on many individuals and families in Caterham and the surrounding area whom The Salvation Army are in contact with throughout the year. Their support includes the provision of fruit and vegetables, longer term food parcels, babies’ nappies as well as supporting those experiencing domestic abuse.

Rotarian Stephanie Barrett commented “We recognised that the local Salvation Army needed support to meet the costs of providing for more food and essentials to local people who are struggling and we are therefore pleased to have made a donation of £1000 recognising the immediate needs”

Ailsa Flinders the local Corps Officer for the Caterham Salvation Army commented “We would like to thank Caterham Rotary for their generous financial gift which we will use wisely to help those in our area who are less fortunate than ourselves.”

Ask any man, and he will tell you that it is every woman’s ultimate fantasy to have two men at once.

Whilst this has been verified by a recent sociological study, it appears that what most men do not realise is that in this fantasy, one man is cooking and the other is cleaning . . .

As a new bride, Edna moved into the small home on her husband’s farm. She put a shoe box on a shelf in her cupboard and asked her husband NEVER to touch it.

For fifty years Jack left the box alone, until Edna was old and dying. She asked him to bring the box to her and open it. Inside were two crochet doilies and £82,500 in cash.

Amazed, Jack asked her about the contents.

‘My mother gave me that box on the day we were married’ Edna explained. ‘She told me to make a doily to ease my frustrations every time I got mad at you.’

Jack was very touched that in fifty years she’d only been mad at him twice.

‘Where did the £82,500 come from?’ he asked.

‘Oh,’ replied Edna, ‘that’s the money I made selling the rest of the doilies.’

Oh really ... !!

90-year old man: "Doctor, my 28 year old wife is pregnant ... what's your opinion?"

Doctor: "Let me tell you a story. A hunter in a hurry grabs an umbrella instead of the gun. He moves into the jungle, sees a lion, lifts the umbrella, pulls the handle and BANG ... the lion drops dead!"

Old man: "That's impossible; someone else must have shot the lion."
