Christmas Party Magician in Sindlesham, Reading
On Saturday 15th December I was booked to entertain with close-up magic at a large Christmas party at Berkshire Masonic Centre, Sindlesham near Reading. I say large as there was twenty-one tables, lots of guests and just two hours to get round them all. Oh, and in between that there was also a Morris Dancing […]

Donnington Grove (Newbury) Wedding Fair Magician
This Sunday (2nd September – I know, where has the year gone?!) I’m going to be at the Donnington Grove wedding fair, near Newbury, Berkshire.

(Well, actually about 2.5 miles away, but as I live in a rural village in West Berkshire and regularly travel all over the country to attend events then it really is just round the corner!) I was […]
Summer Party, Andover Wedding and Centenary Celebration

Weddings near Basingstoke and Reading
It was quite a busy Saturday as I had two bookings, both weddings. Fortunately both were quite local; the first being just north of Basingstoke, the second a few miles up the road towards Reading. Surprisingly, although both of the venues are relatively local it was the first time I’ve performed magic at weddings at […]
Cabaret at Rotary Club Annual Dinner in Newbury
On the evening of Wednesday 27th April I have the pleasure of entertaining at the Rotary Club annual dinner at the Regency Park Hotel in Thatcham, near Newbury, Berkshire. After a month of traveling what feels like the length and breadth of the UK it was nice to be working at an event a ten […]
