but what are you promising yourself next year, magic wise and otherwise?

I'm attempting to:

hawk some written wares around town (a script and a book)
acting classes
brushing up on spanish
stepping out of my magic comfort zone
a possible move to live in london
more wine
more cigars

these arent resolutions, but things i think i should try for next year...34 years old, and i want the next ten or so to be as exciting as i can make them...im steering clear of girls though (they all smell)....

well boys smell worse!

Next years plans are...

Carry in improving my magic and branch into new areas
Get myself some more gigs
Get the children's magic workshops that I've been thinking about off the ground
Eat less chocolate
Get to the gym more often

Pass my audition in Feb for the Nottingham Guild of Magicians
Get back my washboard abs
Finally take my driving test
get seriously involved in coin magic
work on some solid routines
get some gigs
Learn to play guitar
get a PS3
Finish doing up the house
Take my Wife back to Paris on our Anniversary

If I have a top list of 10 1-8 are all to stop buying stuff and actually save some money!

9. to use the saved money to get adouble bass
10. Go to gym (not more often, just to go )


I was also considering acting classes to help with the magic but I'm not sure.

Sounds like a good idea, good luck with that!

Mine would be:

Keep on top of uni work (oh aye, say this every year...!)
Create more of my own magic - now I've got a reasonable base-layer of sleights and concepts, it's time for me to stop just performing other people's magic.
And finally - get a girlfriend... one in particular...! I've just sent off some stuff for her for Christmas so we'll see how that goes down! (She doesn't smell...)

they all smell Farlsborough, don't kid yourself...

Everything smells. I think there's a law or something about it.

My plan is just to be busy busy busy writing...

I just like the cigar idea. Nothing finer the openning up a tube of a cigar and that smell. Then telling the guy to cut it , I will smoke it now.

Actually

Some gigs
and learn 3rd degree burn propley
and a watch steal

thats so far

ewww men with cigar breath, I can't think of anything worse.

Now that DOES smell

Nothing wrong with having a good cigar on the go and a good Whiskey.

Well I was going fill out an application last year that i never did i think i might next year.

Why is it that cigars and coffee never taste like they smell?

Cheap cigars Mandrake?! Then again i have smoked fine cigars and they have been like old boots. I ve smoked cheap ones and they had a better taste.

Or pipe tobacco.

or my armpits

Passed the halfway mark most cigars taste bad. Badly stored cigars obviously taste bad. Well kept premium cigars will always taste better than some machine-rolled cigars straight of the shelf at Tescos.

I had one of these this afternoon which was very nice.
