I posted about this a few weeks back, only got a response from Dat and myself... I know there are a lot of people in and around Brum so hopefully this thread will get a bit more attention!

Greedoniz - PM me next time you're in Cov and if you're interested I'll set up a meet.

I was in Brum centre today - in the Bull Ring. Let me know what shop and I'll call in next time I'm there :lol:

Will do Mr. Dat sir! It'd be an honour. We could compare fibre optic rope lengths til the sun goes down.

Now that's a deal.

I'll teach you the Slydini rope cut which is how to start fibre optics with a single length of rope and cut it into unequal lengths, while showing them as being equal, if you see what I mean :lol:

Betty's Cafe in Selly Oak welcomes magicians. It's open 8.30 am - 2 pm Monday - Saturday. I could leave a pile of magic magazines in the corner for anyone turning up.

I suppose Saturday morning's would be best for planned meet ups.

The cafe is located at the corner of Oak Tree Lane + Katie Road. It's about 3.5 miles from the city centre, just off the A38 Bristol Road.

It's just been refurbished to give more space.

Do consider popping into 'Bettys Tea Rooms' sometime. Selly Oak has many Pubs, restaurants, Cafe's to move onto. Birmingham University is just down the road.

There is a juggling shop just round the corner. The owner - Martin - used to have a magic section. Then, one day, he had a 'message from God' telling him to close it down, which he duly did. This stimulated quite a discussion on 'Magic Bunny'. I'd print off the comments and take them round for Martin to read.

Plenty of people in the area to show off your magic to. There's even a spot to try out a bit of magic on the streets.
