“Lovely, funny man, they loved him!” Chelsea Pitch Owners plc Event

“The event went brilliantly. Gary was such a professional. After our meeting with the client, Gary went away and wrote tailored material. He stormed the gig.” Comicus Ltd

“The evening went really well, and Gary was great. I had a chat with Gary a week before the event to go through what was needed, and then Gary was at the venue about 6:30 to pick up some ideas to weave into the show. Absolutely no problems. It’s been a pleasure dealing with Gary.” Institute of Measurement and Control

Gary was extremely well prepared, he’d obviously read the script they sent him, he arrived early and was great to work with. He asked for information on some staff members in the audience. The event really came together well because of him; the audience interaction worked well, and he had a brilliant connection with the audience. They felt he was hilarious, very quick and was a very funny guy. They loved him. Debra Hitchins from Karl Storz

Gary hosted our Awards Dinner with his own unique blend of humour and wit, which our guests very much enjoyed. Thanks, Gary, for a fabulous evening. Association of Gas Safety Managers
