As residents of William Sanders Village, they frequently clock up 12 kilometres in a day, enjoying the charm of their local neighbourhood. Their favourite routes feature stunning harbour and bay views and regular stops at their much-loved local cafés.

“There are so many beautiful walks nearby, It’s such a convenient area to explore,” says Eric.

Sarah Millican

We booked the tickets in June and were very excited at the thought of seeing “our friend” Sarah whose occasional “basic “ humour we can readily accept and laugh at because it is part of her and her skill at delivering it is stunning. We have built up a relationship with her over the years.(thanks to you tube) and she has earned our presence and our money !
So……in came Sarah……Yay ! Big smiles from us and a warm feeling that she is actually here in Nelson !
5 minutes later she had gone, after introducing a support act, which was the first we knew about there being one….another female comedienne, except she wasn’t. She was a vulgar shocking untalented assault on our senses.She also shouted over the microphone.
When Sarah returned we found it difficult to open up to her after having clammed up to protect ourselves.
How can this happen ? An untalented and inappropriate person with a very specific following if any, has a ready made captive audience ?
I am wondering how this goes with trade description rules……anyone know ?
