*********************************************************

But first, here are my current entertainments/talks:

Sharing the lighter side of working nearly 20-years on the ambulance front line.

'LAUGHTER IN THE VILLAGE'

My most popular talk: Hilarious stories of village and rural life with witty comments on modern living.

(This talk is in its tenth year of maturity – and has travelled the length and breadth of the country)

‘That’s Life!’

Short listed for Esther Rantzen’s That’s Life! Bob entertains with his own comical take on the pleasures, stresses and strains of modern living.

An affectionate laughter-packed stroll down British Comedy’s Memory Lane. Humorous banter – audio clips – and prizes too!
