A few customer emails

Thank you ever so much for your great show at Evie's birthday party yesterday (9th Sept 2007). All the children (and the adults) loved it, especially Evie who now wants to make a career out of being a magicians assistant!

Thank you again for making her day so special

Dear Roly: I just want to write to thank you for the brilliant magic show at William's party last Saturday (21st July 2007). He loved it and hasn't stopped repeating the jokes. Of course, he really does think he magiced the rabbit! You pitched it just right for the children and they all seem to have had a lovely time, so many many thanks, it was a very memorable day!

best wishes Alison Howson (Peppard Common)

Hi Roly

Just wanted to thank you so much for the brilliant party (December 2006).  It was great the way you got the children involved especially the most important ones like Alem, his best friends and his "girlfriend!". I had a lot of people ask me of where I got you from and how much you charged as they would like to consider you for their childrens party.  They especially loved Debbie and even I could not believe how quick but yet how good she was at face-painting.  I had one of my friends say that she has seen many face-painters but not as good as Debbie was.  Well done Debbie - you were lovely! I still have people talking and laughing about the whole party and was even told that it was one of the best parties they have been to and that it will be hard for anyone to do better than what I had organised and Debbie and you were a part of that success, so thanks a lot and I am sure we will be in touch and some point again in the future!. Minnie Mohamed

 

Hi Roly,

Thanks so much for the party in Wokingham on the 15th October 2006 for Angel & Marshall's 5th Birthday. You had the children and adults in stitches the whole time. I've never hired an entertainer before, so I was slightly nervous beforehand, but everyone was impressed with your professionalism, and the adults particularly in your ability to keep 25 five year olds fully entertained for an hour, - and I've never seem my Dad laugh so much ! The twins will  never forget there 5th Birthday !We certainly be recommending you to others.

Best Regards,

Jeremy Buick

Hi Roly

Just wanted to drop a quick note and say thank you very much for doing another fantastic job at my sons, Ben & Alex's, party on Saturday 19th August, you really do take the stress out of the event.  Everyone (parents included) really enjoyed the show.  The magic wands have gone down a storm and my two have been busy making things 'disappear' ever since.

Many thanks
Jenny

Hi Roly

Thanks for doing a grand job at my sons & his friends joint party last Sunday (27th June). Don't know what we would have done without you. Best wishes.

1 Joint parties   Some entertainers charge per child, I charge for my time. So why not have a joint party, invite as many children as you can fit in, and halve, third or quarter your costs.  It makes sense to me!
 

2.Travelling area Since creating this website, I am getting enquiries from all over the South of England. I feel I should give you an idea of the areas In am willing to travel to. I live in Reading, Berkshire & I try to stay within a 30 mile radius (i.e. all of berkshire, North Hants, West Surrey, South Oxon & South Bucks + West middlesex). Having said that, I would be willing to travel further on a quiet midweek day.  I hope this is useful. 

Balloon models  Some entertainers spend the last 15 or so minutes of their show, making balloon models for the children.  Although I agree the children like to have a balloon model to take away, I believe if you sell an hour magic show, thats what you should do!  I am happy to supply balloons for all the children for £10, but will either make them up for you before hand, for you to give out, or if I don't have to go to another party, I will make them up after my hour show.

For 3 & 4 year olds I can do a special 45 minute show & then spend another 15 minutes doing balloon modelling.  This is because this age group has a lower attention span & like seeing balloons made into animals etc. This would be the normal hour show price  

3. Police check For your own peace of mind, you may like to know that I have undergone a complete CRB police check (Certificate viewable Below)

The Hotel Burstin, Folkestone, and many more.
