"PANIA WORLD CUP FINAL"

Toastmaster of the day, Wendy McNaught put together a cleverly themed meeting as it was all based on the rugby world cup.

"Labour Weekend Meeting"

The Meeting started on time.   Thursday, 22 October 2015 with a good attendance in view of the four day holiday weekend looming!

'PERSONALITY plus PASSING OF A SOCIAL SOCIETY"

"Personality plus passing of a social society"

These were the titles of the two speeches at today's meeting of Pania Toastmasters. Linda chose "Personality Plus" which was project 8 relating to visual aids and what a thought provoking speech it was - read more.

'ASSERTIVE GOATS & GENERAL GRUFFNESS"

ASSERTIVE GOATS AND GENERAL GRUFFNESS

It was a sense of deja vu as I sat at our Pania Toastmasters meeting this week.  The last time I was General Evaluator, Carol was also speaking.  And, as it turned out, Carol was performing the same project speech again.  An unusual situation.  However, I get ahead of myself.

'IN PURSUIT OF ADVENTURE'

What a  wonderful way to start October , with a warm , inspiring Toastmaster's meeting .

 

Helen was our Toastmaster for the day , she welcomed us all and explained the changes in the programme.

"THE NEXT PANIA MASTER CHEF!"

Master Chef was Toastmaster Carol's theme as she prepared to cook up a
storm. While it was wild and wet outside, inside everything was cut and
dried at the meeting on Thursday 24th September.

The entre was served up by Darryl who introduced Mike Coombe who had
prepared the first course. It was all about Adolph Sax who invented the
..Saxophone. And cool as a cucumber Mike played a few bars. Not a visual
aid...  an audio aid! In his subsequent evaluation Darryl found much to
praise and a few quibbles to nibble over,eg which Bill played the
saxophone. Gates or Clinton.

The following course was cooked up by HelenWright. The year of the first
toastmaster club, 1924, was the platter on which various tit bits which
happened that year were served up to us. They were a smorgasbord of
tasty events which left her evaluator Graeme replete and contented.

Table Topics was a platter of amuse boches( to amuse the mouth) from
Barbara. Wendy, Jane and Ian were all given morsels to play with on the
theme of newspaper advertisements. Noel evaluated them with a grain of
salt so no one was sauteed.

Linda as Timekeeper knew that the proof was in the pudding so we
finished on time.
Now we're cooking on gas!

'MACBETH SAYS THAT LIFE BEGINS at 80!"

Another great meeting of Pania Toastmasters on Thursday 17th September when we heard all about 'Macbeth's' efforts to be King and that apparently "life begins @ 80!" so read on and be inspired to live that long.
