Yesterday saw the last of my summer holiday camp bookings for another year and, fortunately I was able to go out with a bang.
What a great show to finish the summer with, nine volunteers, hypnotised eight of them and had a really good show.
I will miss the summer shows, but not the travel, 330 miles - five and a half hours each way! Who says "being a stage hypnotist is easy!"
Well, what's next? Soon be Christmas, then it won't be long until next summer!

Book a hypnotist now for Christmas!
Well, things are looking up at last! Things are eventually starting to move on the December enquiries. It seems much later this year, but who cares as long as they all sell!

Possibly the shortest stage hypnosis booking in the world!
Hi
I Think I have had the shortest hypnosis booking in history!
A client phoned me on Saturday evening and made a definate booking for my show for a few weeks time, we agreed all the details and I said I would contract it Monday morning for him.
On Monday morning, before I even have time to do the paperwork, he phones back to say they have changed their minds and do not want the show after all!
Has anyone ever had a shorter booking than that?

Never quite what you expect 2!
I recently accepted a booking from a reputable agent for a job at Catterick army barracks. Great! I thought to myself, a room full of squaddies, should go really well (Well, it seemed an easy asumption to make as that is exactly what I had had there just a few months earlier with a load of squaddies just about to go off to Iraq).
How wrong could I be?
It turned out to be a gig, through the camp welfare office, for the wives of the soldiers who were away on duty. Well to be precise 19 of them in a room not much bigger than my living room!
Looked like it would be a hypnotists nightmare, but, in fact, it went really well! 9 of them volunteered and I hypnotised 7 of them and we all had a great night!

Never quite what you expect!
Hi
Recently I took a booking for a birthday party in a marquee in someones gargen for about 100 people.
Sounds good! when I arrived the door was opened by wonder woman! Ahh... fancy dress! no one had told me! I was shown to the garden to find that the marquee was actually a climbing rope from the upstairs bedroom to a pole in the garden with 4 ground sheets cable tied over it!
The DJ was setting up in the garden shed and the client wanted me to perform under the ground sheets where they were flapping in the wind!
A little negotiating later and I set up and performed under a domestic gazebo at the other end of the garden, but time was getting on now and it was getting a bit dark, so the audience illuminated my show with about 5 torches until a halogen lamp was set up. This worked fine until someone kicked the extension reel into the fish pond and we were back to torch light!
Ohh what a night!

Still an International Stage Hypnotist!
Hi
Just a quick note to let my friends know that 'family life' has not stopped (just reduced) my work overseas.
Last Saturday saw my first overseas gig of the year (Unless you count the Isle of Man!) I was out in Germany again, entertaining the British troops, and another very successful night it was too!
