FW: The Empire Strikes Back - de-night of de-bate

Yes,  Tuesday night belonged to the autocracy, aristocracy and the "good old days"of the Raj, Rudyard Kipling and the British Empire - despite the efforts of the enlightened few [the losing team].

So congratulations to TimH, Brendon,Pam and Jessica, from Debs,Olivia,Erika and Gerry.

A good time was had by all, [I think] Personally I always enjoy debate evenings, and really we don't have enough of them. 

Table Topics was administered  by Erika, on the the how did we manage without... theme.

Pam, tried to remember the good old days when there were no computers [funny that, because not many minutes previously she had been turning back the clock quite happily].

Richard [visiting royalty] tried to remember life without a cellphone. Personally I had only to remember my life earlier in the day. Really, anyone would think the world would end without a cellphone.

Debra, life without coffee, she seems to look pretty good without it, but she may have other habits!

Brendan, I can't remember whether he was locked in or out or if it was his car or  home.

Olivia's vegetable essentials may have caused a vitamen deficiency. The thing about growing things in the garden, they work when you sleep, or work or do other things. 

Another first for Rga toastmasters followed supper. We had two general evaluations!

A pep talk from Richard Area Governor concluded a rather extended evening. 

Finally welcome Jessica and Brendon, we're glad to have you both on board.

See you all next week.  Gerry
