Last week Aspire Magazine very kindly took me to dinner and then presented me with a certificate of recognition for services to event entertainment.
This is the first time they have given this award and Its very kind of them, and nice to
have your hard work recognised.

Thanks to plenty of sunshine over the summer, people have been in a party mood.
I have had gigs at a garden party in Blaby, which even though the weather looked a bit suspect, managed to stay dry until about 11pm.
It was nice for me because I knew a lot of the people at the party so in between sets Carole and I had a chance to catch up with friends.
The second gig was at a dinner party on the Isle of Wight. I always take a sax with me on holiday and try and do a bit of busking. Well this time, whilst busking I was asked to play at a dinner party.
The venue was a lovely house built in 1820 over looking the sea at Ventnor.
As you can see from the picture, the house has a large conservatory built at the same time as the house, which is were the party was held.
It was a very relaxed and informal affair with only about 8 guests, loads of conversation, some lovely food and dancing. It was something they decided to do at the last minute to celebrate Cowes week. I really enjoyed this type of gig and would love to do more.
They have asked me to contact them again if I am on holiday in the Isle of Wight next year so it could become an annual event!
