Meeting Theme HALLOWEEN

Word of the Day  Macabre

We started off on a new foot last week - everyone is expected to roll up by 6.15pm in future

so that we can all get settled in and start the meetings on time and finish on time. First time out

on Thursday worked well thank you everybody. Let's keep it up.

Meeting happenings:

Tony performed the Sgt,@Arms role efficiently as usual with the room well laid out and everything

ready for action.

Toastmaster Jo did a fabulous job using the Halloween theme to segue from one speaker to another

smoothly and without interruption. Jo has just finished her degree at Cant.U. Congratulations.

Win  gave her icebreaker speech, telling us about her amazing clinical co-ordinator's  job at

ChCh Hospital and her responsibilities. Great to know you have our backs Win if we end up in

hospital - heavens forbid. Win showed no signs of first time nerves and gave a great speech

with confidence and aplomb.

 

Gail gave us an unusual speech called a "Roast" the opposite of a "Toast"  where the guest of

honor is subjected to good-natured jokes at their expense intended to amuse the audience.

Gail did a great job as a "smiling assassin" and had us all in stitches. (No,St John Ambulance

did not need to be called).

Leigh performed anoher unusual type of speech we haven't seen before where she sat in a

chair looking away from the audience and appearing to be reiminiscing about memories she

had about Miss Fozzard. she had us hanging on her everu word.

Tabletopicsmaster Glenn used the Halloween theme to provide topics for the speakers

who all did a great  job including our 3 guests Cheney, Tram and Patrick.

Timer Leela who has also finished her studies and achieved her academic goals, diid a

splendid job of timing everybody's speeches.

Overall a really good night and all speakers excelled themselves. Well done T0ASTMASTERS

one and all.
