Annual Toastmasters Humorous Speech and Table Topics Contest. Entered Table Topics. Didn't win. The usual.
(Started well - the topic question included a perfect set-up for a good joke to kick off with - but didn't develop my points well and sort of trailed off at the end. Started thinking of ways I could have done better as soon as I sat down, which is also usual.)
On one level, don't mind that I didn't win, since I already know I'm not going to be able to make it to the second round of the contest next week, so I'd have had to withdraw anyway.
