TESTIMONIALS

“…Debbie started off her Reply from the Lasses in story-telling fashion, quickly becoming ‘deadlier than the male’ in her mocking appreciation of mankind’s meagre contribution to understanding life. She compared women to inept men and finished in grand style with anecdotes regarding her grudging concession that somewhere, somehow, men do have some place in the grand scheme of things, albeit a very small one (we got the suspicion that her long-suffering man was very dear to her heart after all). Great delivery, first class humour and all in the North East’s Doric. Come back soon Debbie…”

“…Debbie Leslie is like a breath of fresh air. As easy on the ear as she is on the eye, and with the happy knack of making her audience relax and let the mental pictures she paints wash over them.

“…I would like to thank you very much for being a guest speaker at our recent dinner. You entertained us with your account of everyday happenings, albeit some behind closed doors, with the introduction of a little twist here and there. Your humour, facial expressions and timing were spot on. There is no better compliment, I am sure, than to hear the room explode with laughter each time you speak.The icing on the cake was to hear it in the Mither Tongue…”
