Interview at Radio Chelsea and Westminster

Radio Chelsea and Westminster

I was at Chelsea and Westminster hospital Radio being interviewed by good friend Anna Pangbourne and congratulate her on running a lively and interesting show. Somewhat ironic that I am here again just twelve hours after admitting myself to A&E having fallen off a stage the previous night in uniform in front of hundreds with a gash in my arm needing stitches. But hey, couldn’t be in a better place or in safer hands. Lucky me. Amazing NHS and caring staff.

Corporate Dinner at Fishmongers" Hall

Asian Hindu Wedding held at Marriot Grosvenor Square London

Asian Toastmaster at Hindu held at Wedding Marriot Grosvenor Square London

Richard Birtchnell is The Asian Wedding Toastmaster

Privileged as always to participate in a Hindu wedding celebration. At the Marriott Grosvenor Square. Working alongside Veer Events, Mahraj Vaisnava, DJ Krash at Devine Music, harpist Melissa Parmar, photographer Dino Jeram,and videographer Chris Jolly.

Photos include:

• The happy couple, Amish and Hatal


• Family group photos after the ceremony


• If you didn’t know it, the swastika was originally an Indian religious icon and still today a sacred symbol in Hinduism. Even the word ‘swastika’ is Sanskrit for ‘prosperity and well being’.


• Creative arrangement of reception cocktails


• The game of ‘Koda Kodi’ played by the couple whereby they search for a ring in opaque coloured liquid and whoever finds it first is deemed to be the ‘ruler’ of the household. The priest will adjudicate and organise the best of three or five attempts until the bride comes out on top. But of course!


• The ‘Ace of Spades’ Champagne may be as expensive as the cake! Pure indulgence. Sheer luxury.


• The Best Man organises a flash mob to entertain couple


• Strictly the first dance. Unrepeatable. Then it’s a non-stop party to the end after a day of celebration which had begun at 8am

British Aviation Group Annual Dinner 2017

I was honored to invited to act as Toastmaster and MC at the British Aviation Group annual dinner at the Sheraton Grand Park Lane.

Attending the dinner was Mike Miller-Smith MBE, CEO of Aerobility, the charity which teaches disabled individuals to learn to fly, no matter how severe their condition, with absolutely stunning results. The charity is a regular beneficiary of the British Aviation Group dinner from generous guest donations.

Mike is the inspiration and founder. As he says: “If a disabled person can fly, what else can can they do?”
