Meeting September 7th 2005

Six members attended for this first meeting of the season and there were four guests, Claire Coffield, Garry Tear, John Grierson and Jane Lord. Each guest bravely stood up and spoke for a couple of minutes. Doug Paterson gave an interesting impromptu speech on New Orleans, his first impromptu speech for the club. Michael Bradley spoke animatedly about his experience of the Sunderland Air show, providing, with the aid of two ball point pens some vivid representations of the Harriers maneuverability. Elaine McKeith expounded an authoritative comprehensive review of hypnotherapy. There was the usual topics session which brought forth some merriment, if only on the part of the topics chairman. Guests and members were asked for their views on Jet Lag, Thunderstorms, Opening Chat Up Lines at Parties. A good time was had by all.
