The Results Are In


Following our AGM here are the results of the committee election for 2015/2016
President : Marie Lynes
Educational Vice President: Brendan Foley
Treasurer: Anne O'Donovan
Public Relations Officer: Helsa Giles
Membership Officer: Michael Cronin
Secretary: Tony O'Regan
Sergeant At Arms: Noel O'Connor, Dermot Kennedy, Trisha O'Reilly
Past President: Liam O'Flynn 
Topicsmaster Noel O'Connor provided us with plenty to discuss in the Impromptu Section. What would you have answered?

1. Can you describe your perfect man?
2. What is the best way to enjoy a summer evening?
3. Are the Irish people becoming more self-conscious?
4. Role Play: You are shopping and you see an outfit that you plan to buy next week. Next thing you see. .another woman wearing your outfit.  What do you say to your friend?
The following are a very abbreviated set of responses provided during our meeting. Answers can be serious, funny, educational or abstract. They can be the truth or make believe.
1. Knows the answers to all problems but only provides them when asked. Never points out he was right. Has a bank balance which is never mentioned but is sufficient to cover expenses as required.
2. Cycling with a visit to the pub, walking with a visit to the pub, or just a visit to the pub. An alternative answer provided to this question suggested yoga in the garden with the caveat of not kicking the cat during cartwheels.
3. The economics of our country has resulted in people feeling under pressure to cover the gaps in our services through charity.
4. This is one of those instances which you needed to be there for, suffice to say, all compliments may not be what they seem.
We would be delighted to see you at our next meeting, which is on Thursday 28th May at 8pm, at the Hibernian Hotel, Mallow. For more information go to  www.speakeasytoastmasters.com
