Thank you to David Minns for a fabulous 10 minutes – certainly not a “flounce too far”! I trust that we will all “shoot the cuff” and look at our shoe toe shape in relation to our trousers lest we become like Noddy Holder!
David Minns – 10 Sartorial Tips – Full details here
Beau Brummel in all his finery – a lot can be learned!
For those bibliophiles – The book I quoted from that David referred to was How to speak in Public – By G.E.M Walker
Mr Walker says (said)
“Have the courage to believe that it is better to be human than to be perfect and that the 4 prime elements of public speaking are
Sincerity
Knowledge
Applied Common Sense
Personality
The purpose of these words is to inspire ease and self confidence”
Having looked on Amazon it is available for $10.50!
