Anthony took us on a musical journey exploring the lyrics of many classic songs and asking table topics participants to talk about the what the meanings of specific lines meant to them such as "Blame it on the boogie" and "Will you still need me when I'm 64" amongst others. It was a very different approach than we've seen and thoroughly enjoyable.
Speeches on the night were given by Sanjit Joseph (doing his ice-breaker about his Toastmasters journey), Ronit Gerber who gave us an inspiring speech about improving our self-image based her own personal experiences as a child and Gwendoline Alderton gave us all some much welcomed advice about de-cluttering (while she cluttered the meeting room with her props). So we treated to a good variety of speeches with equally excellent speech evaluations by Chet Thaker, Meredith Bennet and Rivka David as well as Table Topics Evaluation being given by Stuart Beattie.
