Magician, Entertainer - Brett Sirrell

Saturday David and Gareth launched the office christmas parties at Derby County Foutball club at pride park.  Amazing magic, Tim looked Great, Gareth even better. Might even get some footage on their website http://www.dcfc.co.uk Totally amazed a few people with some magic as well.

Straight after that i headed home, repacked the car with Tanx for a freshers party in Loughbourough for a ver slow 3hrs of Tanx radio control tank battles.

Then the following morning up and workig early at the banbury can day as crazy wizards with steve Kaos.  http://www.banburycanalday.co.uk/Canal_Day_2009/canal_day_2009.htm

What Fun!

I think the title sums up this week!  But a magic week at that!

The week started with Tim and Myself at the Promotions and Marketing Exhibition in The Royal Horticultural Halls nr St James Park, London.  mingling as David and Gareth - Office Lookalikes.  The photographer http://www.sosphotos.co.uk took some superb photos.  There is also a great vid of the whole trade show here

Again a great chance for me to work in some new tricks,  which suited Gareth well.  We have already  potentially got a booking from this show, so hopefully we will be at the Stationary and Office Products Show in the business Design Centre in April http://www.sopx.co.uk 

Then from Friday through to Sunday I was working for The WISCM Trust and ChunkyMonki at the outdoor show and exhibition at the NEC.  This went so so well for both WISCM and Chunky Monky,  they had a great trade stand and product it was just great to be working for them as well.  WISCM in summary help educate and give opportunities to young people through outdoor pursuits, and 10% of all chunky Monki profits go to the Trust. 

The magic went really well and i have come up with a new idea for future trade shows if companies are giving out stress balls. The balloons also made such an impact,  every time i met someone from the other stands at lunch, and i mentioned Chunky Monki the immediately said, “you must be the balloon man, magician”  wow! 

One of the people from another stand came over to see me and get a balloon,  by the time they left they had orded 500 units from chunki Monki!  That made my weekend and made me feel worth my fee! and hopefully the deal will come off for them.

Tomorrow  RSVP at the Business Design Centre (BDC) in Islington with Tim!

Its been a couple of weeks now since i have returned back from Cambodia.  i have put up a video on youtube Cambodia Slide Show The Guys from Vid pr have also put a youtube video up of the stuff we did in January http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHnjWjv9-wA 

I have had a couple of jobs since i have got back.  Magic Jester for a show home opening for Bryant homes.  A medieval themed event,  and fortunately it stayed warm enough to enjoy ourselves.  The night before that we ran a TANX men’s event in Holy Trinity Church in Aldershot.  Between the two events i managed to get about 5hrs sleep!  So driving home was a bit of a challenge to say the least.
