Dear all
It was lovely to see everybody back to the first BISC meeting of the year on Wednesday after what seems like a very long Christmas and New Year.
The theme for the evening was "Music Transcends Barriers" and we were expertly taken through the programme by presenter for the evening Josie. Praise indeed from our evaluator Allan Venables who commended her on one of the best programme presenter performances of recent BISC times!
Mercedes and Carole treated us to their own unique interpretation of the evening's theme with both striking a chord (excuse the pun) with many of us in the audience whilst Allan and Ernon gave thorough evaluations.
In the second half, Lyn gave us the opportunity to think more about our own special relationship with music when she asked us in groups to come up with our all time favourite playlist.
Mercedes threw down the gauntlet to everybody in the club to take part in the club speech contest at the meeting on 9th February. For more information and to register your interest, please contact Mercdes at fonfria@virginmedia.com.
Finally, the not-the-speech contest takes place this Thursday and will be hosted by the Lichfield club. A few of us are meeting in Harborne at 6.15 on Thursday evening to travel up to Lichfield together. If any members would like to join us, please give me a call on 07920 180212 or email me at lucydinsdale@yahoo.co.uk. So far, Mercedes and Mike will be competing whilst a few of us will be going along to lend moral support. If any other members would like to compete, please get in touch.
The new programme will be out shortly so keep your eyes peeled!
Best wishes
Lucy Dinsdale
President of Birmingham International Speakers Club
