I have always been a popular guy, but recently I seem to have made a new 'special friend'.
Recently I told you about my fun with an American Hypnotist who wanted to sue me for 'Loads of Cash!'. Well we seem to have become 'best of friends' he emails me nearly every day now and he is so caring that he checks ALL my websites and posts for me and keeps me right on all things copyright! and bang up to date with the latest technology over there in America.

Popped in Sold out!
There is little else more satisfying than turning up at a venue and seeing the words "Sold Out" written across your posters!
Tonight was no exception, It was my second time at this venue and another capacity crowd which followed on to a great show, roll on number Three! (It's a pity I get paid per performance and not on attendance sometimes!)

Variety is not dead
The start of this week saw me doing four completely different gigs!
First was a charity fundraiser in a local pup for a guy with Leukemia.
Next was a small holiday park, first time there, but made a great impression and got a rebook straight away!
Then a private party for someones 40th birthday, they said I really made the party!
The fourth night took me to one of the top Gay Bars in the country for a very rowdy show, but again they loved it!

Copyright? or copywrong!
Hi
Well it has been an interesting week!
It started by me receiving some assertive and threatening emails from 'an American Hypnotist*' claiming that I had infringed his copyright and that I must remove the offending item or he would have me shut down and sue me for loads of cash!
Well, those of you that know me know that I like nothing more than a good rumble and that I don't like being told what to do by anyone and I am not pushed around easily.
Even at first glance it appeared obvious to me and everyone that I showed the alleged copyright statement to that it could not be copyrightable, but to make sure I had a trip to my solicitor to confirm my suspicions that he was huffing and puffing about nothing.
Plus, even if there had been anything in it, to claim any money at all he would have to prove measurable loss from him to me.
So to bring you all up to date I have informed him of my solicitors' opinion and suggested if he wants he can bring it on!

Full public liability insurance
Well it's been a long time coming, but I have now secured FULL public liability insurance and I believe that I am the first stage hypnotist in the UK to do so!
The policy I now hold has no exclusions as long as the show is performed within the 1952 hypnotism act.
