Speakeasy toastmasters had their meeting on 24th November; there were four speeches on the night. The first was an interpretive reading from Jean Sayer’s. Jean read Steve Jobs speech at Stanford University in 2005.Jean brought this speech to life and brought out the feelings expressed in it.
Pat Sexton gave the second speech entitled While you were sleeping. This was about the history of 9/11, and what was missed by the authorities. This was a memorable speech which was well researched and delivered.
The third talk was given by Bridget Breen. In this talk she had had to use visual aids. Bridget tried to get us to think outside the box. Bridget explained the difference between the left and the right side of our brains and put up some brain teasers on over heads for us to solve which as well as being educational it was very enjoyable.
The final speech was given by Michael Cronin entitled it is never to late .In this talk he told us the story of Mary Delany who at the age of 72 developed a new form of flower art.
The second half of the night was the topic session with Cait Murray giving out lively topics from the mystical power of tidiness to if we should have a cork passport.
