Dear Area 31.
                    last night I was a proud parent as two of our area competed at division level.  Joanne Chan and David Thompson both from CWC eventually both came runner up in their respective competitions.  The standard was high and Ex-district governor Nick Benning described the division as the power-house of the district. Please join me in congratulating the two of them.  The winners of the competitions were:

Jonathan Palmer - Humorous speech
Andrew Klimaytis - Table topics

Lets see if we can make the next competition in six months time an even more stunning success

Regards

Dave Brooks
Area 31 Governor

This Monday is the Division B (London) contest, comprising of the winners from the various Area contests. The contest is being hosted by Corinthians, presumably at the Westminster Thistle hotel. The competition starts at 7:30, and there are educational segments from 6:00. All are welcome, no pre-registration required.

If you’re interested in being a Judge, kindly let me or Dave Brooks know.

Bill Moss did very well at the Area Competition, and very nearly won the Table Topics contest. In fact, David Thompson won it by bringing a stunning amount of structure to his impromptu speech. Also, Joanne Chow’s brilliantly funny speech, In Short, is not to be missed.

An excellent opportunity to see the best speakers in London. Five humorous speeches plus Table Topics and some education. How could you ask for more? — Dave Brooks, Area 31 Governor

Come one, come all. It’s the City of London Toastmasters competition winners, alongside winners of other clubs in our area. Still looking for judges and functionaries.

Dave’s a bit frustrated with us, which is probably my fault. If you’re interested in playing a part on the big evening, let me know and I’ll put you in contact with Dave:

Fellow area leaders,
The area governor is a little frustrated (that’s me) as offers of assistance for organising the area competition have been thin on the ground. I have organised a room and nibbles, I have two hosts. I need sergeant at arms, timer and judges. I could also do with an organiser as that two days around the competition I will be out of the office on business and will not be able to sort out the necessary access to the building. I will be asking my club on Tuesday at our relaunch for help, but until then, offers of further assistance would be appreciated.
