Should I or Shouldn’t I?

I guess a lot of parents ask themselves the above question when they’re considering booking a children’s entertainer for their child’s party. Surely I can manage on my own? I’m great with children! How hard can it be? Well, of course it is completely possible to do it on your own but haven’t you got enough to do? What with …

The Demise of The Yellow Pages

I’ve been doing this job a long time. Whilst having a clear out of the loft at my mum’s house, I came across the above photo. This is my 17 year old self in a professional photo taken for an flyer I had printed to advertise my show. That was 30 years ago! While I may have changed a bit …

My Christmas

With over 70 shows in my diary for the run up to Christmas, I couldn’t believe it when I opened my eyes on 1st December and realised I had a cold coming! Nightmare.

You’ll like this. Not a lot …. but you’ll like it!

You’ll like this.  Not a lot …. but you’ll like it! Magic is quite sexy nowadays, quite trendy. Lots of young, hip magicians performing fast paced, mind boggling tricks quite often on the street and quite often to a young audience. Its had a bit of a resurgence on the TV too. Everyone is familiar with Dynamo and despite being …

Back to School

Well didn’t Summer go quickly?!  I can’t believe how quickly the school holidays passed by and suddenly everybody is looking all smart and ready for another year at school!  I’ve had a very busy time working my magic this Summer.  From lots of end of term school parties and fetes to a wonderful time performing regularly at Fishers Farm Park …
