Your best P.A.

Howdy.
I have just returned from a sim session and one of the comments was that my P.A's could have been better in emergency situations. My standard P.A's were fine, just straight from the company manuals as expected, but the instructor thought I could have done better when giving a general P.A. about the engine failure we had just had and the return to the departure field.
Mine was something like this "Ladies and Gentlemen, Captain speaking, as you will have noticed we've had a problem with an engine. We have secured the engine and are returning to Beijing. We will be landing in 15 minutes. Please follow the crews instructions and I will talk to you again after we have landed. Thankyou."
Can I get a few examples of what you guys and girls would say so that I can steal the best bits and disregard the worst bits
Cheers, Framer
