| To the Presidents of the Member Associations of 41 INTERNATIONAL
To the IROs of the Member Associations of 41 INTERNATIONAL
To the International Board and Managers
All members of 41 Clubs internationally
Gentlemen,
I wish to thank all those who came to the International AGM and Conference in the Royal Forest of Dean/Gloucester/Cheltenham for being there and contributing to a fitting finale to Randolph Riedlinger’s year and to a wonderful start to my year. It is a great honour to be representing Great Britain and Ireland and to be your President. I will do my best for 41 INTERNATIONAL and all its Members.
At the AGM, we bade farewell to Dieter Straka (Austria) who was International President 2007/2008 and had previously been Editor of the Courier. We welcomed Matti Hinttala (Finland) as Vice-President and David Illingworth (Cyprus) was elected as Treasurer.
Renato Bonfini (Italy) has retired as Webmaster after many years of devoted service to 41 INTERNATIONAL. The new Webmaster is Gunner Stumpf (Germany). We have a new Editor in Rajan Mittal (India) who is easing the load of Bob Parton who has been Editor for the last three years (Secretary also during the last two years).
India will be hosting the Vice-Presidency in 2011/2012 following France in 2010/2011.
Italy made an appeal for funds to support reconstruction work following the devastating earthquake. Details of the appeal can be found at www.clubitalia.org
Beat Berger (Switzerland) reported progress with the Strategic Working Group, and was given a resounding vote in favour of continuing with his work.
The official photographers at the AGM weekend were Françoise Senicourt and David Illingworth. The photographs will be posted in due course.
To everybody – conference organisers, Board Members, Presidents, IROs, conference delegates, Managers, helpers, supporters – I say a big, big thank you from 41 INTERNATIONAL.
I look forward to seeing many of you again when I visit your Association AGMs and at the Half-Yearly Meeting in Switzerland in October www.agm-2009.ch and at the Annual General Meeting in Finland in April 2010.
May the hinges of friendship never rust.
Yours in 41 INTERNATIONAL

Int President Dieter Straka |
CLUB 41 INTERNATIONAL 2007/2008 |
MERANO/MERAN |
dieter.straka@gmx.at |
| Gentlemen, dear friends,
The second half of my presidency has passed by even more quickly than the first
one. Much work was left to be done but luckily we have managed to get most of it
done by now. So let me report now step by step.
After the HYM in Zambia I visited South Africa’s AGM in Bloemfontein. This is an
extraordinary experience I wish everybody had the opportunity and the time to
make – it is true fellowship and fun at its best.
Romania s AGM was next and Dorel Cerbu gave proof of good organization and
also good relations of the association with Round Table.
The AGM of 41 Belgium took place in a corner of France, Belgium and
Luxembourg and when we moved around we never knew in which country we
actually were. I wonder how they managed before the EU. In the hotel bed my
feet were in France while my head rested in Belgium. That must be what they call
a borderline syndrome.
The Swiss AGM saw some unofficial and official handovers of several lost and/or
stolen articles including my secretary’s chain.
In March this year I went to Finland, well prepared for arctic temperatures, even
risking overweight penalties at the airport check-in. But to our utmost surprise we
didn’t even see snow in most parts of the countryside. The highlights were the
well known Finnish white wine and John Bellwood s joke about his black
testicles.
Next I joined our friends in Israel at an AGM which was different from any other I
have attended so far. Board and members of the clubs sitting together with me in
a circle and discussing topics of common interest was a true experience. The
social day after that was providing surprising insights into Israel s history and
gave opportunities to strengthen ties to old friends again. Ariel knows how to be
the perfect host and in Sir George s company we felt absolutely aristocratic and
on safe ground, as safe as in Abraham s lap, so to speak. There will be an AGM
next year open to visitors and Israel showed interest in hosting an international
HYM.
In Denmark I was spoiled by Bjarne and Lisbeth and Karen and Michael who
were most caring hosts and we had lots of good talks together. On top of that
hilarious experience Michael and I tried to empty an indoor swimming pool with
brooms and a pump but most unfortunately could not finish the job during the
weekend. The AGM was a breathtaking four-days-event with a Titanic fancy
dress night showing a dozen captains on the ship – small wonder that it sank!
Fancy dressing surf and turf was due at Great Britain s AGM just two weeks ago
and I had to sacrifise my abundant hairdo to making a weird show in my
swimming costume. The strongest Association in our organization changed its
name to Ex Round Tablers Association which is a big step closer to RT now.
Thank you all for having invited me and having been such wonderful hosts.
At this point I want to thank Bob Parton for his great effort, his support and the
tremendous energy he put into his work. Together we could achieve a lot:
1) Remembering the roots we strengthened our ties with RT International
not only by visiting their AGM but also by exchanging thoughts and
experiences regarding our common goals.
2) For the first time we could bring together RTI, LCI and Agora joining us
at this AGM and yesterday we had a first joined meeting discussing
what we can do together in the future and how we can share
information and how we can improve working together.
3) Archivist Beat Berger and Bob Parton used the chance to save
information about our history at a visit to Eric Miller who was a
founding member of the Extablers association in Great Britain and has
an incredible archive of documents about our movement from the very
beginning.
4) Our secretary put some work into a proposal to clarify our rules as a
whole and make them better understandable.
5) For our future we laid the basis for a strategic working group and we
will hear more about it later.
6) Talking about our future I have to report that with the strong support of
the working group we had established in Livingstone last year it was
possible to solve the liability problem we had with the YAP and the
Famex programme.
7) Finally after starting discussion about how we can open our
organization to single clubs we now have a proposal ready to affiliate
them into our international family.
Finally we found a way to solve the charter problem we had with club 41 Italy.
The Board decided that there was a misunderstanding of the rules causing it.
Italy promised to change their rules to be in line with the international rules and
the International Board now tables a proposal to clarify charter conditions to
avoid any misunderstandings in the future.
Gentlemen, it has been a privilege to serve you and it was a wonderful
experience. I am grateful for your true friendship and strong support throughout
this last year.
Thank you. |

| Dear Friends
As agreed in Bremerhaven at the 2006 PPM the time has come to remind you of a date for your new 2008 diaries. Those who were at the meeting in Germany will remember it was agreed that there should be one initial contact in each country within 41 International. This will greatly assist in communicating details of future meetings to all Past Presidents. At the meeting in Bremerhaven some of us volunteered to be that contact one or two well know individuals were suggested by those present as ideal candidates and I have spoken to some others over the past few months. For all the other countries that are not included in this arrangement I have decide to contact the IPPs as appearing the 41 International Members Directory 2007-2008.
All Past Presidents
you are invited to attend
the
Past Presidents Meeting 2008
to be held at
The Atholl Palace Hotel

Looking forward to welcoming you to Scotland next year.
Yours in continued friendship

| Dear friends
in two weeks 2006 has passed by and 2007 starts running.
A moment for a short review of this year.
For me it was of course an amazing year because you only will become once in your life 41 International President - and it s a great honour to be on top of our fantastic association. I tried to do my duties as good as possible and I feel ashamed of having neglected a lot of them. But as a working man you also have to look after your job.
I participated in a lot of AGMs and it would be unfair to prefer one to another - every association tried to organize a unique and unforgettable weekend and it was overwhelming to accept all the friendship and hospitality all over the world. You can be sure I will never forget these great moments.
Thank you all very very much!!
The international conferences were successful and effective; all discussions were held in a decent and objective way - as it should be among friends.
41 International is growing pretty well - and that means there are a lot of new things to do. But the problem is that the budget of 41 International is so low that it is nearly impossible to be innovative. For instance countries with only one or two 41 clubs need assistance, it would be helpful if experienced oldies could visit and support them - but there is no money left in our budget for these travels.
That s why it is so necessary to change our rules in Graz and to raise the fees. I count on your support!
I will never understand that it is not possible that at least every member pays the prize of a pint of beer as membership fee to 41 International - we are the best club of the world aren t we?
I hope to meet you all again next year!
Best wishes for a merry Christmas and a happy New Year
yours in friendship

| Dear friends,
When I came home I took a
look at the last Hinge and felt
compelled to write something
about Romania. Here it is:
Fed up with staying at
home?......Bob Parton asked in
the last edition of our new maga-
zine “The Hinge”. So Lydia and I
for the 7th time this year packed
our 41-cases and went to Brasov
to enjoy a weekend of fun and
work with our Romanian friends
at their AGM.
The weather was good –
meaning good sun, good
clouds and good rain – and so
was the mood. Romanian hos-
pitality is an experience for it-
self and is not to be missed
during the lifetime of a true
41er.
So we met quite a lot of
them from several European
associations like Italy, France,
England (Bob), The Nether-
lands, Belgium, Germany, Den-
mark and Austria.
The AGM and the week-
end were organized and cele-
brated together with RT. The
Vice President of 41 Interna-
tional on behalf of President
Uwe Kerstan – who that
weekend joined our Indian
friends at their AGM – made it
a point to stress how impor-
tant this “together” is and
how well the Romanians do it.
This visit also gave us an-
other opportunity to take a
look at the other side of the
coin: Lack of funds in many
fields, but especially when it
comes to the needs of chil-
dren, of orphans and on top
of it, when those are in many
ways
disabled too.
Whoever wants to help
those – Mihail Ponova, the Ro-
manian Past President, is the
man to send funds to. His wife
is working in such a facility car-
ing for almost 70 disabled or-
phans aged between 3 months
and 18 years. Most of them
don’t even know what Christ-
mas is.
To help them would certainly
give us a good Christmas feel-
ing.
Yours in friendship – and in the
spirit of RT

To all our friends throughout the world.
Dear friends.
Another year is soon coming to an end. As usual it is hard to understand where the time has gone, but looking through our calendars we know why for sure.
The year has been very busy. It was with a sad feeling that I left the 41 International Board in Durban, South Africa. The three years that I had were wonderful. It is hard to describe in short terms what they gave us.
We had opportunities in so many ways that we would never had experienced had we not been in Round Table and Club 41.
Karin and I are very grateful to all of you who did all things possible to make us feel welcome when we arrived to attend a function or meeting. The memories will stay in our hearts for the remaning of our lives.
Hosting us gave us a very special way to experience the different ways of life. We think often of all the friendships that we have made, and it is our sincere hope that we have been able to give back to you just a little bit of what we have received the past years.
I was asked by the Danish National Board to accept the position as assisting IRO until April 2006.
At first I was not prepared to do that thinking it is not a good idea to come back once you have been National President and IRO before. But I am pleased that I did accept. It gave me the possibility to introduce Danish Tablers on the international scene and to greet welcome two groups from New Zealand and one from France here in Denmark.
Also I travelled with Karin to the German AGM in Karlsruhe. Alone I visited Norway, Austria, Romania and Cyprus.
Karin and I will in 2006 attend the 41 International AGM in Dortmund as well as the HYM Meeting in Great Britain. This we look very much forward to.
Also I look forward to work as the Extension and Development officer for 41 International. In Limassol, Cyprus the Board of 41 International asked me to accept this position from the spring of 2006 and then onwards for the coming three years.
Thank you for putting your trust in me. I will do my best – and this I can only do – by having input from the members of 41 International – and by having inputs from all of you who happens to cross on information that can be of the utmost importance to me.
I wish you and your families a Merry and peaceful Christmas and a Happy and prosperous New Year.
In friendship and tolerance we send you our greetings from Denmark.
Karin and Michael

| Dear Presidents and IROs
I have spoken with RT Israel President Oren today with whom we have
finalised the dates for this historic event. This is an opportunity not to
be missed as it is unlikely to be repeated and will certainly never feel the
same , if ever repeated. For those wishing to attend, please arrive on
Tuesday 18th April and depart on or after Saturday 22nd as the official part
will be over on Friday 21st .
Oren and I believe that the significance of this Event; the chartering of an
Arab Table in the village of Taibe, an arab town inside Israel, by jewish
Tablers deserves not to go passed un noticed.
He has asked if RTI may help with PR for the event. For this reason,
consider this email as a call for support from all RTI members to give
recognition to something the politicians could not yet achieve.
May I kindly suggest that all IROs identify and forward to RTI any email
addresses that belong to Tablers in your countries who work for local,
national or international News Agencies in order to send these persons a
promotional flyer for the Event, soon to be put together by RT Israel. This
in the hope of attracting media coverage that may benefit Round Table not
only in your countries but in other countries of the world. Naturally, those
of you who have contacts with world reknowned News Agencies like Sky, CNN,
BBC, NBC etc are encouraged to tap these channels.
Amongst the highlights of the week will be a House Party in Taibe with
jewish and arab tablers partying together that will also see the historic
Charter happen at the same venue with attention to be paid to both ethnic
groups different respective eating or drinking customs . In subsequent
days, the same Tablers will accompany us to Nazareth, Galilee and the Golan
heights during which days we will witness another two Charters of jewish
tables nos 7 and 10 and the RT Israel AGM which shall be attended by the
newly inducted Arab Tablers for the first time in RT Israels history.
Any visiting journalists may wish to consider being part of the social
Programme to join in the experience. Further details like costs,
registration etc to be announced when available.
Certainly an event not to be missed.
Yours in Round Table

| Gentlemen,
John Hudson was duly installed as the 30th President of 41 INTERNATIONAL at the conference in Durban, South Africa on Saturday 23rd April 2005. He is fully supported by new Vice-President Uwe Kerstan from Germany, by Immediate Past President Alain de la Bretesche from France, and myself, John Bellwood from Great Britain as Secretary and Treasurer. Vice-President elect is Dieter Straka of Austria. Peter Poech of Austria continues with the International Directory, Beat Berger from Switzerland is the new Archivist, Renato Bonfini continues with the website and I know that Past President Michael Pedersen from Denmark will continue to be active in his support of John Hudson. The YAP Convenor is Ulver Oswald from Germany and the FAMEX Convenor is Sam Sampath from India. For the time being, Courier will be published in newsletter format by the Board and we want to thank very much Dieter Straka from Austria for all his hard work and attention to the Courier over the last three years.
I am sure that you will all join me in wishing John Hudson a happy and successful year in office. "Respect and passion" were two qualities which he recommended in his induction speech. Those qualities are repeated in the following message which John has asked me to relay to all member Associations through their IROs and Presidents |

| Dear Member of 41 International,
RT International are now preparing a shift of focus of international
cooperation towards LC International and 41 International. Please keep an
eye at www.roundtable.name (new website) to see what we do. Any registered
Tabler can give you the access to the internal pages (intranet).
I hope to see some of you at our main events this year and hopefully we
can be a little more coordinated in the future, to facilitate more
exchange and cooperation.
Yours in Table,

| Dear members of 41 International.
I have just returned home being away for a few days and was sad to find out that Otto Adelhofer has passed away. Otto was a personality who I spend time with last time in Austria at the AGM in St. Veit.
I knew Otto was seriously ill and that he was suffering but he still showed the table spirit in my talks with him. With his death the 41 associaiton in Austria as well as 41 International has lost a good friend who has done so much for our association through the years.

| Dear Renato,
I feel it is time now to say a big THANK YOU for all the work you have done during the past years building up and promoting a good Communication Network for us 41ers all over the world.
Your enthusiasm as well as your persistance by first building up the operationable domaine on your home-page for a few Italian Clubs, followed by extending your "data- and number crunching" in favour of your National 41 Organisation and later widening up your attempts and adding many other National 41 Organizations in your system must be regarded as an outstanding job - and I feel that in most cases you have been left alone, Renato, with all the homework you had to do over the years. Of course you have received more or less well prepared material from different 41-Clubs and many National Organizations in order to support your stand-alone job, but unfortunatly the necessary updates - as I know - did arrive at your desk or computer-desk-top not too often, in many cases even "they never came".
As you know, I am an old member of 41, and some positive comments have been written down on my personal side in the history book of 41-International. But I am no executive at the board
of 41-International anymore - therefore let me say unofficially and simple: I appreciate everything you have done for the sake and for the benefit of 41 International and its members.
Very well done, Renato! Thank you!
Yours in 41,
Otto A., Vienna
