Last meeting at Glebe Hall for Harrovian Speakers' Club

Our last meeting at Glebe Hall was presided over by President Seema. Behind her, wearing the blue ribbon and medallion is the incoming president Jayanthiny.

Lorna's subject for Table Topics theme was the monarchy. Her first topic was: Do we need a monarchy? 

She chose me to answer. I jumped up and said, "Yes, we do need a queen. I always think, why is it not me?" The other speakers were: Suchil; Badal; Jay; Viori (of Northern Lights); Indra; Warren; Sanjay.

Jay won the ribbon for best evaluation. A guest won the ribbon for best table topic. Ribbons were awarded to all three speakers.

Indra evaluated Table Topics.

Jesus gave a speech evaluated by Angela.

Amparo (her tenth speech, the motivational speech) was evaluated by Jay.

Sushil gave an educational speech on how to use the Easy-Speak website. Your username is your first initial and your surname because that is the way the system is set up worldwide. 

You should log in to say whether you are attending the next meeting, because that is required before you can request a speech slot. The VPE or TME then allocates the slots according to requests and availability.

Warren was language evaluator.

In addition to the good and bad things he heard, I heard:

My opic - what's an epic? - which I later realised was one word, myopic.

Jayanthiny was General Evaluator.

The next meeting will be at a new venue nearer to Canons Park. Contact the club to find out.
