The photographs show:


  1. I remember our conversation was friendly but the picture suggests otherwise..

  2. Acting as Master of Ceremonies

  3. Dr Joanne Liu made a beautiful acceptance speech which honoured those of her colleagues who were killed and injured at the hospital in Kunduz and those who lost their lives during the Ebola crisis.

  4. This is why we Toastmasters wear red, I am reminded by my colleague Geoff Harris.

Interview at Radio Chelsea and Westminster

Radio Chelsea and Westminster

Radio Chelsea and Westminster


I was at Chelsea and Westminster hospital Radio being interviewed by good friend Anna Pangbourne and congratulate her on running a lively and interesting show. Somewhat ironic that I am here again just twelve hours after admitting myself to A&E having fallen off a stage the previous night in uniform in front of hundreds with a gash in my arm needing stitches. But hey, couldn’t be in a better place or in safer hands. Lucky me. Amazing NHS and caring staff.

Wedding at Botleys Mansion Chertsey in Surrey

Wedding Toastmaster at Botleys Mansion Chertsey Surrey 08

Wedding Toastmaster at Botleys Mansion Chertsey Surrey


I was fortunate to act as a wedding Toastmaster at Botleys Mansion in Chertsey Surrey for a Friday wedding.


Botleys Mansion was built over 250 years ago, formerly a private residence, then in more recent times, became a hospital. Now an exclusive wedding venue operated by bijou.


Photos include:


  • Groom’s family are from Mauritius – and they brought the sunshine with them

  • Personalised place cards for 90 guests. Amazing attention to detail

  • Magician Darren Delaney entertains top table
