Lamp Lunchtime with… Paul Tonkinson (@paultonkinson_ ) Tickets on sale Friday
On Friday 26th June at @chutneyivy , we welcome Paul Tonkinson, an award-winning comedian, broadcaster and endurance runner who has built a reputation as one of the most engaging performers on the UK circuit.
Alongside his work in comedy, Paul is also an award-winning author. His book 26.2 Miles to Happiness won Sports Entertainment Book of the Year at the Telegraph Sports Book Awards, and his latest book Running Through Sand tells the story of taking on the Marathon des Sables, a 250km self-sufficient race across the Sahara Desert with just two months training.
It is not a story about winning, it is about setbacks, resilience, ageing and asking a much more honest question. Can you finish?
On the day, guests will receive:
• A drink on arrival
• A two-course lunch at Chutney Ivy
• An opportunity to take home a signed copy of Running through Sand.
• A live, honest conversation with Paul, followed by audience Q&A
• A brilliant afternoon of humour, insight and real conversation
Lamp Lunchtime with… continues to bring people together for proper conversations, with all profits supporting our independent community mental health advocacy across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.
🚨 Lamp Lunchtime with… Memberships will also be on sale shortly. Membership will guarantee your spot at each of our lunches, plus some extra membership bonuses. 🚨
Tickets go live Friday. Full details to follow.

Lots of enquiries as to the success or otherwise of the Jamie Oliver xmas turkey experiment.
His wild imagining was to suggest that you get the butcher to chop the legs off, remove the wishbone then you come home and cook n prep the legs on xmas eve, get all dark meat off, prep and spice it then reheat on day
You stuff the crown, butter and season, continue as is.
As chief liason officer of xmas dinner i reluctantly agreed and my assistants - Ra and her mum got to work.
The results - sensational !
Heartily recommended.
A xmas paradigm shift.
Tender dark meat, all spicy and gorgeous and a succulent crown.
We’re working through it in this peaceful little window before New Year.
I’m writing this wearing dark blue elasticated cords that my wife bought for me from the freemans catalogue.
Wishing you greetings of the season and peace to all.
Xx
