Hi Ian,

Great to see you once again last night, and your set more than added to the evening - it was sensational and the boys were ecstatic afterwards.
You get better with age, like a very fine wine - and your material is so fresh and original. Hope to be with you again before long.

Joe Stainer
Chairman Belfry Sporting Club.

Good morning Ian,

A very big thank you for all your support at our lunch last week.
It was a great success and we have had several emails from guests who really enjoyed the day.                                     

As you know we were trying to change the formula to “stay fresh” whilst at the same time not be radical and I think that, with your help, we managed to achieve that.

Neil Holloway
Chairman Lord’s Taverners Ltd West Sussex Region

Dear Ian,

Just a short letter to say how much we all enjoyed your entertainment at our annual dinner.

The atmosphere was superb and made memorable by your performance which went down very well.

It was what was required for mixed audience and had everyone laughing which proved the audience was very attentive.

May I take this opportunity to say thank you and I look forward to working with you again.

John Peters

President of Essex Golf Union.
