Presentation Practice 
TM meeting on Wednesday Oct. 10.

Thank you all for your participation. It is another great meeting with laughter and interesting speeches. 
Thanks to the members of other clubs to come to us for some club interaction.
Thomas Ronholt accepts to substitute as Sergeant at arms. He does his job with great confidence and smoothly opens and closes the meeting without a hitch.
President Marion Chevalier gives us the introduction and welcomes new guests.
Guest Toastmaster Gabriella describes the program and with lots of little comments she enlightens our evening. The unforgettable and entertaining introduction of our club guest Julia to the job description of a time keeper, is positively commented by Gabriella. Oscar as the ah counter and Thomas as the grammarian complete the technical team.
Gabriella leads the meeting full of confidence with smooth transitions, humor and dramatically performed speakers' introductions.
First speaker is me, Hans. I have my speech videotaped and critically watch it, more critically than others. Hereby I offer to record your presentation and you can watch it later on private YouTube. Tell me beforehand if you want that.
Second speech by Djanira tells us vividly 'When time stands still' and takes us on an sailing trip into paradise. This advanced speech is easy to listen to and we are taken into another world.
Third speech is also from the Advanced manual 'The Professional Speaker' and is about 'Leadership styles'. Javier Macias uses lots of visuals and even videos, personal anecdotes and all the tricks he is so good at.
As the general evaluator Marion introduces the guest evaluators who tell us how it really is. We hear three excellent evaluations of which we can learn as a club. Nika, Bemjamin and Oscar give us some different look at evaluations.
Here we come to our most entertaining part, the Table Topics. Agnieszka well prepared and naturally gives us the opportunity to talk off the cuff. Volunteer guest Rodrigo, Daniel and myself take up the challenge to speak impromptu.
From our technical team we hear a report, which Julia again takes as the moment to make an entertaining mini speech. Oscar and Thomas eloquently give their report.
Marion informers us about the upcoming Division Contest, the debate of next week and other club business.
Thomas concludes the meeting.
We enjoy the evening and we are looking forward to the next meeting.
