EXCALIBUR CELEBRATED 21 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE - on 12th June, 2019

We opened our Past Presidents Meeting by celebrating our first 21 years with nibbles and bubbly, before our President Monika handed over to our Toastmaster for the evening, Lynne, who brought huge experience and fun to the role.
Ken performed Meet and Greet, firstly by introducing our guest for the evening and then by inviting the past presidents on stage, each of whom was asked (and answered) an impromptu question.
Anke then ran a great Table topics session, with Freddie acting as Timekeeper.
Our prepared speeches were: Cat, with Comparing Compering (Presentation Mastery - 4 - researching and Presenting); Carolina with From Procurement to Sales (a forthcoming keynote speech) and Nick with Powerful Presentations (The Professional Speaker - 3 - The Sales Training Speech). 
 The speeches were then evaluated by Ben, Simon and Ilaria before David took the Open Feedback session - in which members and guests are invited to add more commendations and suggestions to the evening's speeches.
Former President Bob then performed the GE role. 
David was voted the evening's Table Topic champion, Simon won best Evaluator and Cat was chosen as best Speaker.
 But there were more awards, with cat and Lynne both receiving their prestigious Toastmasters' Triple Crowns!
Our next meeting is at 19:00 on Wednesday 26th June, at the Fitzrovia Community Centre, 2 Foley Street, W1W 6DN. Guests are very welcome!
