THC - Roger's Update - 3rd October 2017

Q: What do you called a pissed off German?

CONGRATULATIONS!!



Thats just for surviving the ball.

By all accounts I understand everyone is alive and had a stellar time! A huge thanks to the Ball committee that volunteered countless hours and plenty of effort to bring you such an amazing event. If you see the following give them a round of applause:

Our thanks to:
Phoebe de Raeve
Ruthie Burr
Alice Hogg

The conclusion of the ball saw the conclusion of our president of two years, Adi Trehan's, stay in Singapore. As his last night wasn't overly coherent, this is a message from your President:

Dear Tornados,

As some of you might know, my family and I have to move back to Germany due to work reasons. We have had five and half years of excellent stay in Singapore and for me Tornados family was a very significant part of my stay in Singapore. I came to Singapore in April 2012 and I remember how Fishy and Kris integrated me in the 4s right in the first month of my stay in Singapore. There was no looking back after that. I wish you all the best for the years to come and wish that I can come back to Singapore soon and be with you all again.

Till the AGM decides on the new president, Izzy (Isobel Lyall), has agreed to be the acting President for the ease and convenience it will afford in running the club. I wish her and the committee all the best for the next 2 months and hope that you all would support them.

Thank you and auf Wiedersehen …

Adi Trehan

The Tornados club is sad to see you go Adi and you will be greatly missed. We wish you all the best in your future endeavours and all the best to your family and life back in Germany. You are the best Indian/ German this rhino has ever had the chance to meet.

Just a reminder that until the AGM please contact:

RESULTS
Due to the ball, we only had one unlucky team to take to the pitch this past weekend. The men's 3 team turned up in fantastic fashion. Full of beans and keen for a win, the 3's started a fast paced game with attacks from both sides and, of course, great defensive work.
Tornados drew first blood with stand-in captain Alex finding the roof with a spectacular hit.
Not long after they were 2 - 0 with a well taken PC and finish by Sandy.
NTU bounced back in the first few minutes of the second half but were held at bay by the Tornados until the very last 10 seconds of the game when an unfortunate PC against them equalled the scores.
Well done to Alex, Sandy, Daenan and Sam all having a superb game after a late night.
