We were booked to provide a 2 hour party for 3 year old Anya in Hampton,
Middlesex. We had provided entertainment for the their Son on
2 previous occasions. The parents told us that at some time during
the party, Anya's God parents would be arriving to see her blow out the candles
on her cake. They didn't tell us who they were! Towards the end of
the party, whilst I was still doing my show, I glanced to the back of the room,
& after a couple of double takes, was amazed to see Paul & Heather
McCartney standing there!
I think a lot of the parents who were with their 3
year olds were as suprised as me. Once the children & parents had
left, Paul came up to me & said something along the lines of 'You did a good
job entertining so many 3 year olds'. I think It was then that it dawned on
me just who it was That I was speaking to, I was absolutely star
struck!. Paul was great, he just chatted away with an interest in how long
I had been a childrens entertainment. I think I made a bad joke
saying 'he wouldn't understand the pressures of being an
entertainer' Luckily, he laughed.
He then asked us if we would
like to have a picture with him? Which the birthday girl's Mum took for us.
& signed an autograph.
