As I now live in London I don’t get up to my native Yorkshire as much. However, I was recently invited along to a wedding of some family friends where they asked me to do some magic, of course I was more than happy to oblige and it was great to perform to the native Yorkshire folk again. It was quite unusual as I knew lots of people at the wedding as most of them had never seen me perform before, but it was great fun.

The next day I went even further North and was performing in Sunderland at the Seaham Hall hotel and Spa. If you haven’t been here before I highly recommend it. It’s a great venue with a Michelin starred Chef (Kenny Atkinson) who is currently in the final of the BBC’s Great British Menu. The wedding was great and the most amusing thing about the wedding was the football results that day. Many of the guests were from Sunderland and with it being the last day of the season there was a lot pressure with local rivals Newcastle & Middlesborough trying to avoid relegation with Sunderland. Needless to say when it was confirm that Newcastle & Middlesborough were going down, while Sunderland stayed up, there were jubilant celebrations! The rivalry up there is unbelievable.
