Members and guests at the Circle were intrigued by an exercise involving question asking and information giving last night. They were individually given the task of selecting the name of a well-known character randomly, and describing him or her, as if they were that person, for up to thirty seconds.  The audience then asked questions to which replies could only be yes or no.  Powers of astute logical deduction, were dazzlingly in evidence, or maybe not?  The winner was determined by the longest time taken to guess who they were.   

Afterwards the topics for next weeks prepared speech adjudication were  distributed.  For those of you who couldn't make it along last night, here they are: 1.The love of money is the root of all evil?

2.Health is wealth.   3.I couldn't live without...............4. Has Society progressed?     5.My ideal address.   6.Can we believe what we read?

Hoping to see you all next week.  Just a reminder that we hope to go out for a meal to La Scalinis on Monday 7th December, so please be in touch with our Secretary for more details if you wish to be part of the group.
