Event type: Meeting
Date: 4th August 2026
Time: 2:00 pm
Venue: Didsbury Baptist Church
Cost: £1

Years ago, my curiosity was piqued when stumbling across an advert saying “want to get paid for going out?” Wearing just a bow tie, cuffs and a bottom-revealing apron, for fun and different celebrations. From the sublime to the ridiculous, sharing my most clean and humourous anecdotes. With the finale being requested specifically, by Marge for her landmark 100th birthday.

Paul is a Buff Butler and is happy to share anecdotes from this challenging career. He has been a Butler in the Buff since 2008 so is obviously very experienced. Apparently, back in the day, this service was very popular at Ann Summers parties, but as these are now less fashionable, he entertains at hen parties, divorce parties and even Ladies Day at Aintree.

Paul lives in Blackpool and tells us that he doesn’t use fake tan. We think this picture was taken several years ago.
