From Gary Edwards, Area 6 Governor
I'm very please to announce the success of the Area 6 contest on Monday. The packed room was treated to extraordinarily hilarious speeches, quick-witted table topics and a good time was had by all.
The competitors in the Humorous Speech contest were (from second left to second right): Alexander Lowry (London Cardinals), Laura McCracken (London Olympians), Mikolaj Paszkowski (Polish your Polish), Vaughan Evans (London Corinthians).
And the results: 1st Place Laura McCracken 2nd Place Mikolaj Paszkowski
The Table Topics (impromptu speaking) competitors were (again from second left to second right): Andrea Weir (London Olympians), Jessie Macneil-Brown (London Cardinals), Vaughan Evans (London Corinthians), Adam Ginalski (Polish your Polish).
And the results were: 1st Place Jessie Macneil-Brown 2nd Place Vaughan Evans.
The others in the pictures are myself (on the far left) and our scintillating and brilliant Contest Chair Simon Bucknall.
Also instrumental in the running of the evening were the highly impartial Rory Marriott (Chief Judge), the timers, the counters, the judges and of course London Cardinals for supplying the room and all the help an Area Governor could have asked for.
Roll on the Division B final! See you there on Wednesday 21st October.
