Manor Of Groves Toastmaster

On Saturday 20th April 2019 I had the very great pleasure of being the Manor Of Groves Toastmaster, providing my Toastmaster & Master of Ceremonies services for Eton Manor Lodge’s Ladies Night.

Over 85 guests enjoyed a lovely meal which was followed by four excellent speeches and a particularly large Raffle with lots of wonderful donations, which I had the pleasure to conduct. I also undertook a number of activities including a formal Receiving Line, saying Grace, and the singing of the Ladies Song.
Many congratulations to the President & his Lady, Chris & Charlotte, for a lovely evening.

And a big thank you to Adrian & his team, at the venue, for their support during the evening.

And some wonderful feedback, the day after, from Chris
“Ian, thank you again for your services yesterday, you were excellent. Very much appreciated, Chris”.

Ladies’ Festival Toastmaster – Sir Christopher Wren Hotel & Spa

The second Masonic Ladies’ Night of 2019 has brought me to a new venue, the really lovely Sir Christopher Wren Hotel & Spa. Tonight I have had the real pleasure of providing my Toastmaster service for John Carpenter Lodge’s Ladies’ Festival.

A really tasty Banquet was followed by four wonderful speeches, and I once again was honoured to sing the Ladies Song. Earlier I announced all of the guests to the President & his Lady during the Receiving Line, as well as announcing a number of Wine Takings. I finished my duties by drawing the Raffle and introducing the First Dance.

A great Banqueting team at the Sir Christopher Wren, and a real pleasure to work alongside you.

Thank you for inviting me to be Your Toastmaster and many congratulations to the President & his Lady, Adrian & Chat.

Oh, and couple of views from tonight’s venue 😁!
