Guildhall Christmas Lunches 2017

London Toastmaster at Guildhall Christmas Lunches 2017

During the festive season, I acted as Toastmaster in the City of London’s beautiful and historic Guildhall for the first of three Corporation staff’s Christmas lunches. The other two follow in sequential days. This way 1,800 staff attend covering all departments such as today’s – Barbican, Police, Schools, Surveyors, Built Environment. I have acted at these lunches for more than ten years. Great fun with a measure of formality.

DAY TWO : More Christmas Hats

Day two of The Christmas lunches at Guildhall and some of the best Christmas hats which include Santa’s sleigh, Battle of Britain Spitfires and a swan. The departments represented on this day were Chamberlains, Open Spaces, Central Criminal Court, City Solicitors, Children’s and Community Services.

In December last year, I was at Grosvenor House’s Great Room as MC and Master of Ceremonies for a corporate dinner with over 1,500 guests. I have

decades of memories of this venue having booked it multiple times, organised events here, been entertained as a guest and acted frequently as a

Toastmaster. There is nowhere like it in London.
