Another epic evening was had as we shared a night of burgers, honey badger beers, warm gin shots and some of the best all round stories we have had in some. The Stamps were immaculate and the boys took this opportunity and had to dig deep to claim the ultimate prize! And taking that prize was Justin Michael Clark with his pre bearded Japanese colonel Jesus stamp (insert cheering, two finger clapping and a high five). Unfortunately there also has to be a loser of the evening and taking out last place with as many ticks and there were gins was Grant Golding with his spanish stamp about a tree (Insert laughter and unsportsmanlike conduct). Other awards for night, Andre De Sylva took out c**k of the month for various offenses through the month of Feb and New comer Mark Hardie displayed nerves of steel by upholding one of the strongest traditions of SCC and therefore taking out Achievement of The Month. There is bright stamp future for this young rookie.We also had a perfect example of what not to do at SCC by Grant Golding and his whatsapp message that contained a some what ridiculous amount of hug and kisses emoticons and was punished for said offense and may or may not be forced to act out his message at the next SCC formal.
Until next month boys, may the stamps be forever in your favor.

P.S: Judson John Smythe may or may not be a tool and die maker.

The last scc meeting before the end of year finale was both exciting and a game changer. The boys not only placed 2nd in the worst Pub quiz ever but really came to the party with some interesting and thought provoking stamps. Was a pleasure to have Country members Kelvin from PMB and Thomas all the way from Malaysia join for us. The scores are being tallied, the gloves taken off and the gin warmed up for the this years final SCC meeting end of November. Stay tuned

Dicktator emeritus here. Stamp collectors assemble at Billy the bums for a night full of laughter, blood, tears, hate, love and all the stuff that action thrillers are made of. And we will talk s**t, a lot of s**t, mock Andre and have a few shooters. Just a general good time. Remember to clear those schedules at the end of October for the Third SCC open day. Ra-boo-bee ra-boo-bee
