Our Toastmaster on this cold January evening was DL who managed to control the boisterous members with his usual ease.
Introductions were to the question: What progress do you want to make this year?

For the invocation, JD gave us some thoughts on finding the time to do some special things in life – in particular doing nothing at times!

‘Venerable’ was the word chosen by the Grammarian PR

Prepared speeches were by DB, RM & DM
The best speech award went to DB for his speech ‘A Walk on the Wild Side’

Table Topics Master CLW posed some random questions including:

Has your luggage been sniffed at an airport?
Does Hi Tech always end up in scissors?
Have you been affected by hidden airport charges?
Do you dance like no one is watching?
Do you think space exploration is a waste of money?

Best Table Topic award went to KB
Best Evaluator award went to AB for prepared speech number 2
