Current News
(January 2024) For the last 2 years have been working full-time for Canterbury Travel
both in Lapland for the Winter season and in the UK, recruiting, amongst other
things. Currently looking for new opportunities back n the UK.
Back to performing in some amateur shows for recreation.
(Dec.20) There was a brief reprise in
December where I had a fantastic
experience in LaplandUK, for the most
part in the guise of Eeko.
LaplandUK was open for 18 days, I
worked for 12 very long days,
11 of which as Eeko.
(May - August 2022) Spent a few months in America (Camp America.) My first time in
America and gained some good experience, and memories.
(Nov/Dec.21) Back in Lapland "Elfing" for Canterbury Travel followed by the
wonderful news that I have been offered a full-time job for them which will now
involve, amongst other things, the recruitment of elves.
(Aug,20) How times change from my last update of "Off to Training in Majorca." Back in March, everyone was sent home early. 2 planes later + 10 days and lost sense of taste and smell. Have been grounded ever since. :(
(Mar.20) About to go off on "TUI Blue for Families" training to Majorca shortly.
(Feb.20) Unexpectedly had to jump in to play Coral, the underwater good spirit of the sea in the pantomime, Robinson Crusoe and the pirates.
(Jan.20) Home. Which means it's nearly time for panto!
(Nov/Dec.19) Back in Lapland, this time as a Make-up Artist, but was delighted to spend the last 3 days as an Elf.
(Aug-Oct.19) Spent 2 months in Greece working for TUI as a Family Evening Entertainer.
(5/19) Hectic month as returned from a stage break to perform in Taunton Amateur Operatic Society's CATS as Macavity and Rumpus Cat, and in Bradford Players' Agatha Christie play, Black Coffee as Barbara Amory, (please check out show photos).
(12/18) Spent a few weeks as an Elf assisting Santa in Lapland, something I definitely would like to do again.

Cinderella Award for Best Performance by someone 16 or under) back to
Bradford, for my role of Jiminy Cricket in Pinocchio. Additional youth
award also.
(10/14) Delighted to have been awarded another SFD Award, this time a
