Know a little about a lot? Have a head full of random facts? Or haven’t got a clue but wouldn’t mind a fun night out with some good company?
Every second Tuesday, 3Chairs Questionable Company — the 3Chairs community trivia team — gets a table together to take part in Trivia Night at Everglades Country Club in Woy Woy.
You don’t need to be a trivia expert. Sometimes the most unexpected piece of useless knowledge turns out to be exactly what the team needs! Come along for the questions, the laughs, a little friendly competition and the chance to spend an evening with new people.
There’s no pressure to know anyone beforehand — just pull up a chair and become part of 3Chairs Questionable Company.
This community outing offers you the opportunity to:
Trivia is FREE for Everglades Country Club members
Annual club membership is A$10.00. Meals and beverages are available to purchase directly from the club.
Every second Tuesday, 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Everglades Country Club (9/13Dunban Rd, Woy Woy)
Trivia Night is run by Everglades Country Club. 3Chairs organises the Questionable Company table so members of our community can attend and play together.
This is a community social activity and is not a therapy group.
Bookings are essential.
Losing a partner can change so much more than we expect. Alongside the grief itself, there can be quieter changes too — an empty seat at the table, weekends that feel different, and social occasions that aren’t quite as easy as they once were.
The Extra Chair is a monthly lunch hosted by 3Chairs Therapy for widows and widowers who would like to meet others who understand something of that experience.
Held at Margarita Daze by Umina Beach, it’s simply an opportunity to enjoy lunch, conversation and the company of new people in a relaxed and welcoming setting. There is no expectation to talk about grief or share your story. Come for the conversation, the friendship, the food — or simply to spend a Saturday afternoon in good company.
The Extra Chair is a community social gathering, not a therapy or grief-support group.
This monthly lunch offers you the opportunity to:
FREE to attend – simply purchase your own meal and/or drinks directly from Margarita Daze.
Second Saturday of every month, 12:30 pm
Margarita Daze (345 Trafalgar Ave, Umina Beach)
Upcoming 2026 lunches:
Places are limited and bookings are essential. Please confirm your attendance at least 48 hours before each lunch so we can finalise numbers with the venue.

1) What is your favourite place on earth?
Anywhere water meets land (beaches, lakes, marshes, bayous). If I can see, hear or smell a body of water, my mind and body immediately relax.
2) What do you feel most passionate about?
Listening to people’s life stories. I’ve never met a single person whose story didn’t move me or make me marvel at how extraordinary humans can be.
3) What makes you laugh the most?
Self-confident and overly-dramatic children. Judgemental cats. Witty dialogue (e.g. Schitt’s Creek, Shrinking, Mythic Quest).
4) What is something you wish you knew more about?
The world we live in – its people, cultures, history, and natural wonders.
5) What is the best compliment you ever received?
Someone told me, “When you die, your gravestone should read, “Here lies Clare Fernando. She was no dumb f**k.”
6) What is your favourite thing about yourself?
I experience things deeply – sometimes dramatically, always analytically. Dizzying joy, crushing despair, and everything in-between – to truly be alive.
7) What is something people would never guess just by looking at you?
I’m a serial creator. I’ve founded three businesses, published a novel, staged a musical, and taught myself to crochet blankets, scarves, and amigurumi.

The people in my life – those who are woven into my journey, and those who passed through at just the right time. In my lowest moments I wonder if I deserve them. In my wiser moments, I know I do.
9) What is the best advice someone gave you?
If you go into battle, you have to be okay with losing. Once fear of failure stops you playing it safe, you’re far more likely to go for it, take risks – and succeed.

Capable. Kind. Fun.
1) What is your favourite place on earth?

Own up to your mistakes and take responsibility. It’s better to be up front and own it, than try and lie or hide it.

My ability to change and adapt in most situations.

I’ve become a cat person.

Family, friends and Durian.
9) What is the best advice someone gave you?
If you enter a negotiation (in life, at work, wherever), you must always understand the best alternative to a negotiated agreement. If you can live with this alternative, then you will not walk away with an agreement that doesn’t suit you. Don’t ever negotiate (or fight) if you are not ready to lose.
10) What would you like people to say about you?

I feel most passionate about health and wellbeing, especially when it comes to nourishing my body and my family with good food and positive habits.

Nothing makes me laugh more than my 2 daughters being silly and unapologetically themselves. My husband’s sense of humour balances it perfectly and keeps our home fun everyday.
4) What is something you wish you knew more about?
I wish I knew more about different cultures and religion, as I find it fascinating how history, faith and cultures influence us in how we live and think.
5) What is the best compliment you ever received?
Over the years my Dad has always told me he’s proud of me, and its honestly the best compliment I’ve ever received.
6) What is your favourite thing about yourself?
My favourite thing about myself is how deeply I care about the people and responsibilities in my life. When I commit to something, I give it my all.
7) What is something people would never guess just by looking at you?
People would never guess how silly and sarcastic I actually am once I’m comfortable. I might look serious at first, but I love making people laugh.

I’m most thankful for the special people in my life. My husband who is always there for me and my 2 beautiful daughters who are my world.

10) What would you like people to say about you?
Strong, loving, fun.
1) What is your favourite place on earth?

2) What do you feel most passionate about?
Healthy eating – I want my kids and family to grow up in a household full of nourishing foods and flavours. Also, experiences over physical items.

My husband. He’s been making me laugh since we met 20 years ago and continues to do so to this day.
4) What is something you wish you knew more about?
I wish I knew more about cooking and baking. I love trying new dishes, but have always wanted to expand my skills by attending courses and experimenting with different flavours. I also wish I knew more about ancestry and my cultural background and the people in it.
5) What is the best compliment you ever received?
Someone told me once as they were serving me at a cafe that I had a positive aura about me. She couldn’t explain it, but that I seemed like a kind person.
6) What is your favourite thing about yourself?
I’m a people pleaser. I try to stay positive and happy in any situation, no matter the circumstance. No matter how I’m feeling that morning, I will always put on a smile – everyone deserves to be greeted with happiness!
7) What is something people would never guess just by looking at you?
I’m extremely good at remembering dates – particularly birthdays. If I hear it once, I’ll always remember it without having to refer to a calendar or Facebook.
8) What are you most thankful for?
I’m most thankful for my family – particularly my husband and 2 boys and the family we have created. I’m also thankful for the opportunities I’ve been given whether it be work related or home life.
9) What is the best advice someone gave you?
While it’s always good to ‘save’ money – you must live life to the fullest. Go on that small road trip down the coast with your family! Splurge on that fine dining restaurant you’ve been eyeing. Life is short.

Kind, loyal, and a good mum and wife.

Narrative therapy seeks to help you reclaim your life story by separating you from your challenges and problems and recognising their externality. By removing these issues from your own identity and applying your own talents and meaning in life in navigating the way you live your life, you can change, grow and realise your ideal life.
Psychodynamic therapy helps unlock self-awareness and understanding on how your past experiences have shaped your present beliefs, attitudes and behaviour. It identifies your unconscious defence mechanisms born from past experiences and helps you redirect your present and future behaviour to achieve more positive outcomes in your life.
