Roy the Love Guru
Roy Piu won the S32 Humorous Contest
The Area S32 Contests were held on September 30 in Wellard
There are 5 Clubs in Area S32 which is part of Southern Division in our WA District 17.
The clubs are Victoria Quay of course, Fremantle Gateway, Rockingham, Netmasters and Cockburn
Contests were held to select who will compete in the Southern Division final on November 12 for the Humorous and the Table Topics Contests.
And Roy won the Humorous Contest with his speech The Love Guru
When he received his award from District Governor Robyn Richards DTM she responded in the style of his speech – as you can see.
The Contests
There were two contests – for Table Topics and the Humorous Speech. The contests were organised by the Governor of Area S32 Marianne Law. Yes, she is related to one of VQ’s members.
Toastmaster for the night was Tina, Tuira-Waldon from Rockingham and Netmasters.
Chief Judge was Peter Law – from Netmasters as well as Victoria Quay .
VQ member Jeni Alford was one of the two Tally Counters.
VQ member Li Liu was one of the two Timers
What about the Table Topics Contest
Yes, there was a Table Topics Contest and our Dean Humphrey represented us there.
So, why didn’t Dean win it, just as Roy did with the Humorous?
He went overtime and was disqualified!!
Most of our members I spoke to were confident he would have won if he had not gone overtime. There we are, Dean. It was good experience for next year.
David Nicholas prepared this report.
Dean looks a little despondent ….. Don’t worry I’m sure you will do well in the international:… Come join a real surf club and talk about that
