TWJC Christmas show 2003

This year though we were lucky to have an act from Pearse Halfpenny, a professional performer since time began. He absolutely stole the show. I don't think I have ever heard so many jokes told in such quick succession.
"She said, "do you like my flip flops?"
"For god's sake put your bra back on!" I replied."
My favourite trick that he performed was the one where he had a tray with a tea set laid out on a chequered table cloth. On one corner of the table cloth was a small ring.
He mounted the tray on top of a metre & a half high tripod & balanced the lot on his chin. Then while still balancing the lot he took a pole, reached up & inserted the tip into the ring attached to the tablecloth. Then he whipped the table cloth away leaving the teaset still standing. Very nice.
What a star performer.
