New Effects

Been a busy boy over the last few days as well as the corporate work I have been breaking in some new effects, which I have been working on for a little while now. They final looked ready to share with the world but the proof as they say is always in the pudding. So I packed them in my case ready for a show I had yesterday with a drinks manufacture and I have to say the response was great. I must admit its  a great feeling when you hear a positive reaction to something you may have been working on for months as well as a bit of a relief.  Looking forward to my next show so I can do them again, not long to wait as its tomorrow. It's fair to say I'm very happy in my work.

Had fun on the 12th & 13th.

Had a good weekend with a corporate event on the Saturday for Barclays Bank which was great fun and at a great venue to boot (it was like being at Hogwarts). Its the second year that they have booked me so was a great opportunity to show off some new effects that I had been working on. I am happy to say I think they hit the spot. My last gig on the Sunday was a surprise 50th birthday in London for Mrs Castronovo who seamed bowled over with shock when all her family and friends jumped out at Enzo's restaurant shouting "Surprise".  A top job done by Vince and his brothers on the organisation as there was not a dull moment throughout the whole night. My thanks to them all for making me feel so welcome, it was like being one of the family. 

Wedding fairs for the start of 2008

The start of a new year for me always means wedding fairs we've  had Knebworth Barns on the 6th January which was packed out. I will be at Chilford Hall on the 3rd Feb and the national wedding show on the 22-24 Feb at London's Olympia with my Agent Allsmart Entertaiments so do come and say hello and I promise to show you some great new effects for 2008..

I have also been a putting the hours in on my new one man stage show which will be going ahead this year. Just before Christmas we had a photo shoot for the poster and even if I do say so myself its looking good.. the poster that is not me.

A New Toy..

So here it is my new website, many thanks to Andy Beach for all his hard work and putting up with me on the build of this site. So my own little bit of cyber space and a page where I can write about what I get up to and who I meet along the way. Well 2007 has been a great year for me packed with great memories but December 07 was manic only just now catching my breath. Got to perform for Jamie Oliver his wife Jools and their family. At another gig I got to meet most of the Arsenal football team only thing is I'm not really up on the whole football thing so didn't know who they were until about half way though the gig Oh dear. We all had a great time I even ended up in a conga with many of the players at one stage which was a bit random but a great laugh, a top bunch of blokes who seemed to love magic which is always nice...
