Hello

Postby lenslater » Tue Mar 09, 2010 12:05 am

Hi,

I'm Len, from Bristol in the UK. I've been interested in Magic since I was a child, and though I've pursued other goals and dreams, I've never lost my love of all things magic. I'm particulary a fan of close up magic, as I think there's so much more fun in being able to fool someone right in front of their eyes. I'm also fascinated by mentalism. In my 'real' life I'm a photographer and writer.
I'm happy to meet all of you in this virtual world

Len

    Hehe :) that's cool. Actually, I'm rarely in the UK, as I work abroad, but when I am I'm in the Bristol area. How are things there? Hopefully all the snow has gone now!!

    Yes although they pretty much cancelled my January law exams at Uni! And as far as I know all is as wonderful and beautiful as ever! :D
