Details of talks given by Peter Slater
I'm a retired BBC Sports Reporter and Producer . I have two very different talks on offer. I wrote a book about my experiences, it's called "Don't You Know Who I Am? ( 45 years being ignored by Sports Rich And Famous) and my talks are based on the book. They involve close encounters with people like Brian Clough, Geoffrey Boycott, Muhammad Ali and Mika Hakkinen plus stories of life in the Premier League, Formula One and The Tour De France. I live in North Derbyshire so I'm happy to travel a reasonable distance for a fee( usually around £50 ) plus travelling expenses, although this is all negotiable. The North and the Midlands would be the most likely, although I've recently done talks as far afield as Watford and Spain ! I now have a second talk. Called "Do I Know Who I Am?" it details my search for my birth family. I've been doing talks for around six years now, to groups of men ( Probus/Rotary) women ( Ladies Circle/ Friendship Groups and mixed groups ( U3A.) I can do annual dinners and lunches as well as informal get togethers. I really enjoy meeting people, and they seem to enjoy meeting me, so I you fancy an amusing hour with lots of anecdotes I could be your man.
