We all enjoyed your fascinating and brilliantly delivered talk on Thursday and by all accounts you were deemed the best speaker we've booked in a long time! Committee Member, Ealing U3A

Thank you so much for your presentation about your grandfather. I could see everyone enjoyed the talk. It was interestingly illustrated, giving us a very full picture of Robert Keable's packed life. You have obviously done so much research and it really paid off! Committee Member, Merton U3A 

Thank you very much for your fabulous talk this morning. I thought it was great!! So interesting…  One member afterwards told me that you were the best U3A speaker that she had heard this year!! President, Christchurch Central U3A, New Zealand
