St. George's Day

I had a fantastic day today with members of the English Toastmasters Association. The following has been taken from the English Toasmasters Association website.

The picture below is of the installation of our first Honorary Fellow Member of the English Toastmasters Association, Patrick Stevenson, who is the great grandson of the first toastmaster to wear the red tailcoat, William knightsmith. Here Patrick is shown receiving his certificate of Honorary Fellow Membership from Lord of the Manor of Romans Fee, Writtle, Essex Richard Oscroft MBE. Richard also just happens to be the grandson in law of Harold Dean, the next distinguished toastmaster who wrote the book, My Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen. Patrick has been made a Fellow due to his kindness to our Association and his help with our research into the history of this profession. His twin brother Richard is also being offered an honorary fellowship of our Association. We are most grateful for their help, support and kindness to our Association. Patrick delivered an excellent and very interesting presentation about the life of his great grandfather at our Gt. George's Day Meeting.

Thank you David for your support with our National Meeting and all you ongoing help.
