Award-winning comedian Milo McCabe’s alter ego – the almost impossibly suave Troy Hawke – is an expert on many things, including Scrabble values, politics and all things Scouse, even pulling off a completely convincing accent.

He’s also the founder – and only – member of the Greeters’ Guild, setting himself up in full regalia outside random shops, offering warm words of welcome to the customers.
Here’s what happened when he tried it outside a B&Q in Warrington.
@troy_hawke WELCOME TO B&Q
‘You don’t like friendliness?’
‘No.’
‘Fair enough. I understand. I’m off brand.’
TikTok users were very much on board with the Guild, and disappointed at B&Q’s killjoys.
He shared the clip on Twitter, where it was greeted with guild-level enthusiasm.
"What was the nature of the complaint?"
"That you're greeting them"— Holly Brockwell (@holly) April 27, 2022
So funny. I wish all B&Q stores had a ‘greeting guy’. Loved it. “No, we don’t want that (friendliness)” Jeez.

This is very funny. ‘NO – we don’t want that.’ https://t.co/5Ho5kjzV6G

We like friendliness in this country but not too much friendliness, and especially not when we’re buying plant pots, paint and replacement toilet seats. https://t.co/wzCkbmg96J

If you want to see Milo/Troy live, check out his tour dates here or visit a lot of shops in the North West and hope he turns up to greet you.
