"Journalism: My Part
In Its Survival"

The Ups and Downs of 45 Years In Newsprint

“Stuart’s chosen title proved apt as he has already contributed forty-six years to his profession and continues to do so today. A gifted speaker, with superb use of the English language and grammar, and the voice to match, Stuart gave thirty-one very attentive members a fascinating account of his career, from cub reporter at the age of eighteen in South Africa, to working for The Times and Telegraph in UK. This was a very entertaining talk

“Thank you very much for presenting at the New Speakers Day. Our members enjoyed your talk very much and our Board of Trustees have agreed that you should become a Wiltshire WI Speaker

“Many thanks for coming along to the Speakers Selection meeting. The members really enjoyed your talk, and I think you will get many bookings! I am very pleased to ask you to join our speakers list which is published annually in our Year Book

‘Stuart gave us an interesting insight into his life of journalism. He revealed how following the stories he thought needed to be told often led to him to dangerous situations but also some fascinating characters. His life, it appears was never dull.’
