The only subjects I could be a powerful orator in respect of are listed below,  I doubt if any one (especially a townswomens guild) would want to hear them.
My current conversational pieces have included,

1, Is Captain Kirk better than Capt Picard?

2, Should my decking be stained Dark Oak or Antique Pine?

3, Would Big Daddy have really beaten Giant Haystacks if wrestling wasn't fixed.

4, Why didn't I invent the Pope shaped, soap on a rope ...?

These are the big questions that should concern us all ...

If you contact the local Rotarians, Round Tablers and Lions, their secretaries have long lists of speakers they've all used in the past.

Is this the very large decking by your shop?, I'd stain it 'sea green'  ;D

I grew up believing that Big Daddy was the hardest man in the world, ...
But now I think I've totally thown the question that Clemmy asked off track ....and I apologise for that.

Now ...(Ian excepted) lets get serious.

I bought a couple of old Wharfedale speakers which I took to my local Antique Dealer. 
He said he thought I had made a sound investment!   _))*
