Thanks to all who helped to make it a great night.
And thanks to Are Governor Jenny for your support and friendship during the year.
Because there were five Tuesdays in June, it will be an extra week till next meeting. See you all on the 14th July!
What a coincidence – I’m from Steve’s former club in Manly Vale, Sydney. I didn’t know yours was the club he’d moved to. Browsing online just now, I was surprised and delighted to see Steve’s photo.
ReplyDeleteLike you, I write a blog about public speaking. Posts include “10 tech tips” for webinars and online meetings, how to present a 1-hour talk in just 30 minutes (without rushing!), how to instantly be a better speaker (which is a tip from @JonAcuff), and an evaluation of Allan Pease’s TEDx talk on body language.
Of course, you’re very welcome to have a browse on my blog, and I always respond to comments.
Please say “Hi” to Steve from everyone at St Kieran’s TM!
Hi Craig,
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear from you. I've just read some of the articles on your blog and found them very helpful. I think the rest of our club will enjoy them too.
