2011-06-05-Shenanigans Poolside and a Bucket or Two of CaCa

Hi Misolites.

Well, sources tell me there have been shenanigans going on at Mi-Sol Park.  Now, before anyone wants to sue me or tell me how I should always check my facts first:  I don't care if it is true or not....this is a blog of gossip and innuendo.....it's a bit of fun....it's a little information (true or not) for the Misolites not in Spain.  Sooo, get over yourselves.  (If there is more than one of you.)

Are you sitting comfortably?  Then I will begin.  Yesterday (Saturday 4th May) rumour has it that a certain old wannabe president and a new vice-president got their respective knickers in a twist over the amount of ENGLISH owners using the pool!!!

The two Spanish gentlemen (sorry I digress) The two presidentes’ of one sort or another apparently came into the swimming pool area and started shouting the odds to all the Misolites who were swimming!!!  "Get out, Get out, I am in charge" was the sentence repeated over and over again.

Of course the intrepid Misolites were not deterred or frightened by this...they came up with the stock reply to the Spanish people  ..."no comprende"....

This of course infuriated the wannabe and the vice..."no comprende" they repeated, "Well, comprende this".....and promptly called the Guardia Civil  (That is the police to those of you unfamiliar with local names...lol)....

Now, the Guardia Civil was not impressed with being called out on such a trivial matter. They stood around with stern expressions of their faces.

Luckily for the Misolites, who to a man (and woman) were unable to speak Spanish, there was a certain Senorita in the pool with her son, she spoke Spanish fluently.    Yippee.

"Who is the President"   asked the Guardia Civil
"Me"    said the Vice
"No, you are only the vice" said the Senorita.
"Is this true?   Asked the Guardia Civil
"Yes"   said the vice.
"Stop lying then" said the Guardia Civil

"Why are you telling all these people to get out of the pool?" asked the Guardia Civil
"Because we have only had a year to get information from our Insurance Company on what we are and are not covered for."  Said the vice
"Are you having a laugh” said the Guardia Civil 
"No," said the vice "I have decreed that the pool shall remain closed until the 15th June"
"Really!!" said the Guardia Civil
The senorita was ready....."At the AGM 2010 it was voted for that the pool would stay open all year."
"Is this true?"  Asked the Guardia Civil
"Yes” said the vice and the wannabe
"So stop wasting our time...."These people can swim at their own risk, whenever they want"
Said the Guardia Civil
"Hooray" said the Misolites who were stood about dripping and freezing.  With one accord they joined hands and jumped back into the pool.
The two  ????  slunk off with their tails between their legs......A victory for common sense and everyone lived happily ever after.(not)

GROUNDBREAKING NEWS JUST IN

Apparently because our committee was unable to pay our master rodder in credits to look after the pumphouse, they decided in their wisdom to do.......NOTHING.

Today (Sunday 5th June) this has come back to haunt them.  Apparently a large lorry with pump and container plus the police have been summoned to Park Naciones, because the sewage from Misol Park has overflowed and caused a big stink.....(I thought everyone on Mi-Sol Park smelt of Roses...No...I am wrong again).  May have some more news later.

Management Course------Lesson 1:

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.
The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.
When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbour.
Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.'
After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.
The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.
When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'
'It was Bob the next door neighbour,' she replies.
'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'


Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.
