One of mine would have to be, lose the belly, preferably somewhere where I won't find it again like I did this year.

Practice more sleights and lose the gimmicks. Among other reasons sleights are cheaper and I can't find a jacket with enough pockets to carry my ever growing army of gaffs and gimmicks.

Try and find the hair I lost this year, and hope thats not it thats coming out of my ears and nose.

Run 4 miles every day, my Gran started doing that when she was 30, shes 74 now and we don't know where she is!

Get married, I haven't got a girlfriend yet ( might be something to do with the hair and belly thing? ), but I'm going to Thailand so you never know. Must remember to check for adams apples, maybe his plumbs too.

I almost ran over an angel,
He had a nice big fat cigar.
'In a sense,' he said, 'You're alone here',
'So if you jump, you'd best jump far.'

I used to love sucking on a nice big fat Cuban (oo-er, missus!), but these days I cough my lungs up the morning after even if I've just been in a smoky pub the night before.

In the summer when i went to America, i tried a strawberry flavoured cigar! Tasted kind of sweet. Very strange experience!

I was born with Multiple Personality Disorder. Luckily, they are all me, they just dont always get along...

Ditch the cigars and get a pipe like a real man. I don't use mine often, but do occasionally enjoy donning my robe, sitting out on the doorstep on a cold clear evening and watching the world go by, gently puffing on a 3/4 bowlful of Mango Delight.

You're never too young to smoke a pipe.

As for Thailand - it's great fun but believe me Stevie, just steer clear of anything in that department. Or at least, come and see a few of the patients who return from Thailand and go straight to the GUM clinic first...

Does that mean I can? Please?... :(
One day I'll be a real man...

Actually, I may as well just buy some razorblades and kill myself that way! Strawberry Flavoured cigars do sound somewhat tempting however..

We must have come dangerously close to each other tonight then (I must be more careful in future :wink:) . I was at the Vintage House in Soho picking up some cigars unfortunately my dinner wasn't as grand as yours, it was in Subway.

Well my one for this year was:

(Msn Screename): New years resolution, keep this in my screename all year.

Yep I managed it, unless some hacks into my account and changes it.
For next year my new years resolution is to create more original magic and card flourishes.
