This is an IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT, due to the unfortunate pull-outs of some of our clubs International Speech Contestants (to be held on 17 January 2013), the VPE and I decided to maximise the resources needed to run a contest & reduce the waste of another meeting date, we will re-combine the Table Topics Contest (initially announced to be 31 January 2013) back together.
Hence please take note,
