Fabulous party for Tony's 80th with great food and great company. I taught Charlotte a nine card trick which she then was able to perform at the tables to much applause.

Coins were bent, rings were vanished and then found in impossible places, cards were signed and then put back into the card box, before being found in my trouser pocket. Minds were read using a six sided colour cube and also a Sherlock Holmes book. Tony received a card with his name mysteriously inverted (as someone pointed out it read YNOT or Why not!

I was especially pleased to perform the Cluedo themed trick successfully a few times. This is the favourite of my recent purchases. At previous gigs I had only a 50% success rate but my new handling seems to have sorted out the problems I was encountering.

Plus someone didn't show up so I was able to get a three course meal as well! I never perform whilst people are eating so this worked perfectly for me and the quality of the food at Malmaison was really good.

Here is what Tony said:

"Just to thank you for your entertaining magic at my celebration last night you mystified lots of my guests, slick presentation it was much appreciated."
