Yesterday we moved our meeting to the bigger room which made us climb up the learning curve. In that room you need to project your voice very well in order to be heard by everybody in the room. Just a quick hint for future speakers... - The meeting once again went very well. We saw a Toastmaster of the Day rookie, Adela, leading through the night with courage and ambition. We witnessed an engaging Table Topics Master, Carol, creating difficult everyday situations and then abruptly leaving her victims, David and Jeff among them, all alone to deal with it. We admired Belinda and her great healthcare project when she was giving her 10th and final "inspiring" speech of the Competent Communicator manual. We felt the drama when Florian told the story about his friend getting almost stabbed in NYC. We laughed about the mostly entertaining anecdotes which Rose presented in her role as the after-dinner speaker (5th project in the advanced manual "The Entertaining Speaker"). We learned from our evaluators Edith, Jeff and Brenda. We warmly welcomed our guests. And above all, we all had a fabulous time! See you on July 1...

Courageous was the Word of the Day, and Rose was courageous indeed. In her 4th project of advanced manual The Entertaining Speaker she had to give a dramatic talk with vivid imagery, dialogues, filled with either own or third party experiences. She described in most colorful words the cheerful, generous, hilarious character of her best friend who wanted to conquer a new linguistic horizon in Manchester where she ended up brutally murdered. One could hear a needle drop on the floor when Rose set the punch line... But that is what Toastmasters is all about; to become a versatile, multi-faceted speaker, sometimes an entertaining speaker, and sad stories do entertain a lot. A great, courageous speech about a most difficult topic. - Brenda was the Toastmaster of the Day, and with habitual ease she let through a session witnessed once again by 5 guests, all of whom acknowledged in the end the great level our club has reached. Adela ran the extemporaneous Table Topics session and assumed that everybody in the crowd had seen Al Gore's Academy Award winning documentary. But only guest Dimitri from Russia had actually seen it. No problem in a spontanious session. Adela made Christian, Dimitri and David comment on different perspectives regarding the value and impact of Al Gore's work. Apart from Rose's speech, we had the pleasure to listen to Birgitte's dream of a pollution free automotive world and to Kai's tenth project, the inspiring speech "The best investment of your life!" which according to Kai was investing into your own family. Evaluations by Florian, David and Edith and the President's address by Xavi rounded up yet another highly entertaining night.

Epilogue - We never mention them, but Raisa as the Timer of the night and Joan as our Ah-Counter did a fabulous job...

What a great meeting yesterday!!! Numerous guests witnessed a session full of laughter, information and - above all - speaking and evaluation skills. Toastmaster of the Day Marie resourcefully (Word of the day: resourceful) led through the evening, introducing the speakers in the most blooming ways (My cheeks are still red from all the laurels she threw at me...). David, a genious rookie as Table Topics Master, first had to explain to everybody where the tiny village of Ebsfleet was located, before making some prestigious designers present their gigantic landmarks for that town where the Eurostar meets daylight again. Jeff, presenting a gigantic English football fan statue, made the most convincing appraisal according to a public vote. The night continued with four diverse speeches: Veronika researched her topic well (project 7) and outlined the pros and cons of Barcelona as a favorite tourist spot. Carol had the great privilege to finalize her Competent Communicator manual and gave her 10th and inspiring speech about how to better seize the moment. Edith chose a difficult path indicated by the advanced manual on interpersonal communication; she outlined the secrets of assertive leadership, presented a dummy conversation together with a resourceful Brenda, and rounded up her slot with a Q&A session involving the audience. Finally, Florian "made them laugh". In his number 3 project of the advanced manual "The Entertaining Speaker", Florian went deep into the most inner secrets of The Stag... Some thought it was fiction, others did not. - Professional evaluations by Christian, Brenda, Jeff and our President Xavier concluded the body of the session. - Our beloved friend Angela, re-joining after a year or so, stepped in as the General Evaluator and could only say one thing: "Wow!" Thanks to everybody for a great TM night. See you all in one of our next meetings.

Diligent was Belinda's word of the day. And she did a jolly diligent job as our Toastmaster of yesterday's meeting; a meeting which for the first time in 2,5 years lacked of any guest... Of course there is no need to worry about new members, two of which we could warmly welcome; Raisa from Finland and David from the UK. Applause... For a long time we couldn't count with a Jokemaster of the Day. Until José stood up and recited a great Holmes/Watson joke, very British indeed. The night moved on with Table Topics. Paul had prepared his session with diligent care. He called on diverse "experts" in art history and made them comment on the greatest pieces like an elephant portrait created by his 19 month year-old son, one of the most promising contemporany artists in the world. - Antonio was so impressed by a 2 cm steel construction, a mile-stone setting needle sculpture, that he could only grasp for breath, speechless. - The speeches! Kai made his body talk presenting us a fable about the external evil and why it is so convenient for societies to cultivate it. He did an awesome job, we felt like being part of the story. Then came Veronika straight from down under and gave us an extremely entertaining lecture on the little differences in terms of Australian words and expressions. And all that dressed as a sort of baywatch lady. Rose took on the challenge of stepping in the agenda on short notice. Nobody really realized the limited prep time of two hours only. She performed her third project of the advanced manual "The Entertaining Speaker" and yes, she "made us laugh". Rose made fun of all the techniques we learn at TM, like variety of voice, eye contect, body language, catching the attention and many more. Hillarious, especially her ASSet. - Evaluations and a remarkable general evaluation of the meeting by Xavier rounded up a highly entertaining evening. - fm

Carol, Toastmaster of th Day, always smiling, in her chanting way forgot about telling us the Word of the Day! In the end it was "canny" like smart dedicated to all the canny contestants at the Super Tuesday. Carol paved the way through another exciting night of public speaking. Our guests feat. front-runner David form the UK were impressed to see newbies like Adela (Ice-breaker), experienced speakers like Melinda (Visual Aids) and advanced speakers like Florian (Resources of Entertainment) stepping into the ring of exposure. Christian had led our Table Topics session before where he confronted some "volunteers" with challenges like adressing the protagonist of the Societe General scandal, negotiating with French striking truck drivers or witnessing the wedding of Sarkozy and Bruni. The highly entertaining evening continued in the nearby Bar Tomés where we could try the most famous Patatas Bravas of Barcelona.

INVIGORATING is the word to describe our first meeting in 2008 on January 8! We were honored to have had Jim Dobson (Division Governor Spain/Portugal, DTM), and Marie Coutart (Area Governor) attend our session. After the meeting we had to recharge our batteries at the bar next door with finger-licking frankfurts, alitas picantes and burgers and refreshments.

And this was what we did:

  • walking down the xmas lane with Kai
  • building love nest with Jose-Antonio
  • head-banging with the President and her new Wii heavy metal guitar
  • drinking Glühwein with our Bavarian star Florian
  • season partying with Xavi
    moving into a love inspired Salsa session with Christian
  • interpreting 'Sign language' across different cultures with Jeffrey,
  • getting trained on leadership and coaching by Edith
  • learning the right points through impressive speech evaluations from Melinda and Xavi
  • not forgetting having fun with counting AHs, UMs and controlling times with Carol-Ann and Paul.

How invigorated we were! Special thanks to Belinda our Toastmaster of the evening!

Cheers

Our Toastmaster Florian set the scene again. The JOY we experienced at the meeting was INCREDULOUS but true. There was high energy rushing through fun table topics, diversified speeches and fantastic evaluations. It was great to see members being continuously challenged to achieve improvements as they progress through their speech manuals. In the Table Topics session our president could not help but to share with us her xmas adventures around the globe. Jose Antonio M. volunteered as Joke Master. Our Curacao beau Ryan's Ice Breaker was full of laughs, we learnt that he is a naturally funny yet sensitive guy. Kai convinced us to consider a book for a xmas present called GTD (Getting Things Done); and all without slides! Carol Ann impressed us with a well structured speech on sign language with AMAZING & REAL live props! Running last on the line came Melinda in her jogging gears with her researched topic on cardiovascular exercises. We learnt from our evaluators (JA Hernandez, Edith, Flo, Xavi) the importance of rehearsing and timeing, to use face expression according to the flow of our speeches, to connect with the audience and eliminate the ever dependence on notes. Glad to have Chris and Marly keeping us on time and watch our AHHHS!

A small Xmas party after the session brought us all a nice get together with great wishes for the Xmas as well as another eventful and successful New Year 2008.

See you next year!

Toastmaster of the Day Edith drove the evening on history lane with Guy Fawkes, and the audience showed high motivation using English proverbs throughout the meeting. More humor from Marie, our recent Humorous Speech Contest winner, with her skit on salvaging men/women relationships. In continuation, Christian gave tips to the gentlemen on how to satisfy women (uff, hot stuff!). Back to more serious talk when Jeff in a genius way and at very short notice told us about Marcus Tullius Cicero, one of Rome's greatest orators. He shared with us one of Cicero's tips on how to memorize speeches. In her Table Topics session Marly squeezed the members' fruit of imagination by asking them - as writers - to reveal their book (fiction, travel etc.). The juice was delicious. Then a blackout, the lights went off. But Melinda, our VP Education, managed her training on How to Evaluate to Motivate without any slides. Evaluations remain the highlight of our TM sessions. Xavi, Veronika and Rose gave very constructive and motivating feedback to our speakers. Thanks to David and Jose Antonio for promptly covering the timer and ah counter roles in the very last minute.

Fellow Toastmasters, please volunteer for roles on the website! For recordings of the meeting, please contact Xavi Anguera. Thanks & see you in the next meeting!

October 17th 2007
We all faced a tough challenge yesterday. Not only it was our Area Governor's official visit, but our Advanced Silver Toastmaster Xavi had to manage a somewhat 'eventful' speech contest meeting. Everyone hailed him in acknowledgement of his seamless performance. Our humorous speech contestants Marie and Liam received instant additional feedback from the audience in order to help them prepare for the Area Contest on October 20th. It was indeed difficult for the contestants' evaluators (Melinda, Rose) to provide feedback in such a short time focusing on the speech/contest requirements in terms of  quality and delivery. Tricky also for David to evaluate Kai's uniquely and well delivered ice breaker where he told us about himself indirectly via introducing three of the most important people in his life. Even harder for Edith to evaluate one of Belinda's best speeches. We ALL were persuaded not to buy commercial eggs! We also benefitted from Jeff, our General Evaluator who gave productive and honest feedback with regards to the meeting setup. Not forgetting Joan who threw knotty roles at Marly and Carol Ann with his Table Topics on creating a better environment for women at work. Our new member Adela volunteered giving a response and impressed all of us with her own view of how to encourage the women workforce. Last but not least, it was great to have our members volunteering to fill other important roles such as Timer (Jose Antonio, our new member), Birgitte (Ah Counter) and Carol Ann (we did have a Gramarian last evening)!

Thanks  & see you in the next meeting!

Our guest Olga was stressed after work but it eased off gradually in between the variety of topics and exposure to different speaking styles. In his premiere as Toastmaster of the Day, David raised our awareness about the good and bad of stress and the meeting started off quite relaxed with a group yoga chant. As our souls were at ease, Carol Ann, our Table Topics Master, took the chance and inspired us on how to create what we want. It was a moving moment when Luis braved the ice breaker through sharing his deep thoughts with us whilst Christian pointed out the new rules of cyclism on our roads. We also walked away with tips from Chris on how to present our business in 60 seconds. For those who did not attend, you missed yet another session of English humour at its finest with Jeff  presenting a multitude of English accents. Our evaluation team (Xavi, Melinda, Edith, Florian, Rose and our surprise guest Area Governor Marie Coutart) committed to their role in highlighting key improvements and achievements of the speakers. As usual, the entertaining meeting continued as we adjourned in the bar next door where we did convert into football hooligans!

See you on October 16th,

We did it again: impressing our guests with fascinating topics and high quality evaluations!
Veronika, our TM od the Day, initially counldn't believe that our location was so nice, thus deliberately skipped the building. Fortunately, she stepped back and brought us an INNOVATIVE evening. - David, our Biotech expert gave us a twist into the future with his Table Topics. Eager victims like Marie revealed a sexy encounter in Virtual Reality; Jeff fancied a more relaxing life with Living Forever and our guest Olga showed great anxiety in Reshaping her Body with Nano Robots to allow her enjoy gastronomies without ever to get fat! The audience was further ignited with Carol's energetic medicinal advise. We threw our heads back laughing at Liam defending the proper use of his mother tongue English against other cultures and lately severely attacked by advanced technology (emails, sms...). The evening continued with Xavi's journey into the beautiful Comarca de Priorat near Reus and Tarragona. We all learned some lessons from the constructive feedback provided by Maria, Jeff and Belinda; the importance of limiting details in order to avoid information overload, spending more time on preparing advanced speeches, and to have a concise introduction with the purpose of the speech stated clearly. Special thanks to Melinda for sorting out those very last minute changes in the agenda.

See you on October 2nd,
Rose

Welcome back everybody! Yesterday we celebrated our first post-summer meeting in our fabulos new location. Hopefully, our venue-driven journey has come to an end now. And what a night we had with plenty of guests, funny and ambitious table topics by Belinda, a charming Toastmaster of the Day Jeff, a broad variety of speech topics, and, above all, some fantastic evaluations. Our guests were thrilled, for instance, by the professional level of Kim's evaluation of Melinda's Hurricane speech. Kim acknowledged Melinda's ability to speak with a firm voice (it was her #5 "Variety of Voice" speech), but showed then in a very practical way that a steady firm voice has no effect on drama either. Kim started to demonstrate the impact of different voice levels and gestures, and everybody in the room felt like sitting on a roller coaster. Great job! The other three evaluators of the night - Xavier, Liam and Edith - were some tough rivals though. As far as the other speeches, Christian talked about the virtues of Open Source software, Rose in her tenth speech inspired the audience to find the path to solidarity, and Florian experimented for the first time with an advanced manual and performed a TV commentary on the current situation in Iraq. As stated above, the new venue has everything we need, and we all know that there are decent bars in Old Sarriá, which we proved right right after our great session.

As those of you who attended last meeting know, the President from the Oporto Toastmasters Club, Francisco Saraiva, visited our club and also participated in many respects.

I have sent him our thanks and best wishes! Look forward to seeing everyone at the Spring retreat, it's the event of the year that shouldn't be missed!! We are going to drink the Port wine there!!

A cozy little village close to Tarragona; the typical small village in the middle of nowhere surrounded by hordes of olive trees and almonds. Village people gossiping about boyfriends who left girlfriends, postponed weddings, village news in general. We are talking about Xavier's village. Yesterday he told us about it, performing one of his humorous speech projects. And yes, he made us laugh a lot. But this was not the only highlight of a session witnessed by German, Dutch and Belgium guests. In his 10th speech, and thus gaining his Competent Toastmaster award, Peter took us on a journey; a journey on a train running through our lives. He must have had thought a lot about all the metaphors he used to inspire us. They were great! He faced a wall of silence. But not that sort of uncomfortable silence. No, it was more a silence of expectation. In her unique way evaluator Sioux threw lots of laurels on Peter, not missing out though some constructive criticism; something Peter always requests. Frank performed another speech. Finally he was "here". He made up a story around his curriculum of presentation skills and courses, climaxing in his Toastmaster experience... "here". To round up the speech block
me, myself and I were giving a training session on visionary leadership. Melinda did a great job in making the session flow in her role as Toastmaster of the day. Other credits go to our evaluators Liam, the funny Irish, and Edith, our ever active Area Governor. To include Melinda's Word of the day, the meeting was yet another confluence of presentation styles, diverse content, seriousness and laughter, ... and Table Topics of course. Maria had had the idea to let people talk about anything they wanted to; only that the successor had to follow up on the story painted by the predecessor. Funny. fm

It is amazing to witness the level this club has achieved. This is not just some lame get-together where people occasionally meet in order to stand up and throw some meaningless rhetorical fragments into the air. No, our club has entered another level. and there is only one word for it: professionalism. You would certainly agree, if you had experienced Chris and his ice-breaking speech; a journey through milestones of his life which were not worth to be mentioned. You would also agree, if you had seen Jeff philosophizing about the way our world is changing. Every speech featuring quotes by British writers and poets are a pleasure to listen to. Our Menorca import Joan on the other hand giving his "ice-breaker" had to stand Florian's tough evaluation which was uncommonly harsh in tone and wording. But then again this is part of the word above. We cannot improve if we never listen to those kind of evaluations; always having in mind that these are of subjective nature, of course. Joan forgot about it when he joined the others for a drink at a nearby pub after our club session. Though it might be guessed that it was his last time using a written speech... - Maria talked about America and Cups. In her appealing way she took our hands and led us behind the scenes of the most prestigious sports event in the world. Before the speeches took the floor, Xavier acted as a brilliant Table Topics Master. Intelligently he put his four victims into a plot of situations where you have to search for false excuses. Friends, bosses, all of them had to be tricked. And I almost forgot to mention Rose in her role as Toastmaster of the Day. General evaluator and Acting President Angela acknowledged what everybody thought; a great performance by one of Deutsche Bank's greatest assets. When Abba stepped of the stage forever they sang "Thank you for the music". I say, "Thank you for Toastmasters, thank you for Prestigious Speakers". fm

Yesterday we settled in our new venue for the first time. Thanks again to Veronika and Angela for making this happen. All present members showed their approval. The room is definitely a great solution for the time being.

President Belinda kicked off the meeting with a series of rhetorical laurels she awarded to all members who had made the Division Conference three days earlier a great success; several cheeks of front-runner Edith turned red... TM of the Day Liam smoothly carried us through the program. In one of his multiple comical remarks he pointed out that Frank's speech titled "Here" had to be discarded from the agenda because, actually, Frank was not here... Table Topics master Maylen made three of us comment on some socially critical images, one of them showing a child soldier. While doing so she fought hard with our disliked word fillers scrutinized by Maria.

The speeches. In the run-up icebreaking Carol Ann was nervously sitting next to Florian who didn't really help her with his overblown comments. But then she did a great job. No fillers, extraordinary content. We really got to know her personality well. Congratulations. Veronika made her body speak explaining to the audience why a "Kangaroo" ended up in Barcelona, and Rose practiced her vocal variety skills painting us a vivid picture of her last trip to Malaysia. Chris not only did a great job keeping the time records for the speeches, but also for the three following evaluations by Jeff, Florian and Belinda.

After some constructive criticism by our General Evaluator Peter and closing remarks by Belinda the meeting continued in a close-by tapas bar.

Hope to see you all back next time when we continue to raise the bar on May 2nd.
