Well done Vaughan for giving your IceBreaker speech.
ReplyDeleteWell done Narelle for your first TT evaluation. Apparently little steps towards evaluations were not necessary.
Well done Josh (not only on your jokes which I most enjoy) for your first speech evaluation. It gave me clear insight where I need to improve.
So glad to see that timers were called for TT speakers. Great topics. I learned a few saying with "salt".
And huge congratulations to Peter for selecting such an interesting topic!
