a handsome trophy

Margaret gave an analytical and constructive evaluation of a humorous
speech by a club member. This included tips on how the speaker may
improve technique.
Topics Contest:
Davidson had to give a three minute focussed speech, without preparation,
on a subject given only at the point of speaking. The ultimate impromptu
speech.
