Getting to the Point

The meeting was attended by 11 members, and chaired by Ian Levingston (who, by the way, read the Mission Statement at the opening of the meeting).  We had 2 great speeches – Darryl Baxter doing Speech Number 3 Get to the Point, and Laurence Bacchus doing Speech Number 9 Persuade with Power.

International Speech Contest

An excellent meeting was held today under the Leadership of Craig (not that he did much!) when we held our International Speech Contest. Graeme organised the agenda and the Contestants, of which there were four and all spoke well on their various and wide ranging topics.

Valentines Day

Another beautiful HB day as we gathered for the regular meeting on Thursday.  Twelve members attended.

Cats

Hi,

 

Another excellent meeting on Thursday, well run by Toastmaster Jan, who kept us all to task and was assisted by the Timekeeper Jen, which enabled us to finish on time at 1.00pm. Again the room was well set up by Graeme & Ian, who do an excellent job behind the scenes every week setting up and dismantling the room, so that when the majority of members walk in it is already to go.

Human Robots

Greetings Pania People, for the beginning of 2013. We welcomed Jane and Russell back from the extended break.

Apologies were received from Sue Atkinson and Craig Robinson.

Thirteen members met this week, for the opening meeting of the year. Laurence was going to be late so Graeme stepped in and began the meeting. He also installed Ian as Timekeeper. Thanks to you both for short-notice obedience!
