some of the memorable incidents of debauchery and fun that old Flashy experienced (not including fascinating lectures and superb magic):

Burning lip on flash paper cigarette when drunk :oops:
Being Dan Garret's volunteer.
Max Somerset kissing my feet...
Chilling with Iceland's premier magician at the Ruskin.
Getting drunk with some top guys at the Ruskin and hanging out with you over the weekend.

Blinding!!!!

I unfortunately couldnt go at the last minute, but im again going to do my best to come next year.

Mandrake, its awesome that you met Eric Delaney! I saw him perform a few years ago in Tenerife or somewhere like that! He's an incredible drummer and a great guy! Whenever somebody asks me about my favourite musicians, he is among them!

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

Not at all Søren!
There were a lot of TM members with all different tickets that met every night at Ruskin, first by the bar upstairs, but on Saturday and Sunday night downstairs in the basement bar. We hogged a whole long table on Sunday night and we all had a blast. (And a few pints). Most of the TM members had given their mobile phone numbers to Bananafish to receive a text message where and when to meet for the group photo. And I kept bumping into some of the "celebrity" TM members, like James Brown, Mike Skutt, Dynamo, Mandrake :shock: and Noel Britten. And I was one of few TM members with big TM written on my pass. That helped others to find me too.

This did border on stupidity. Especially as it was a slow burn and you had a good few seconds before it reached the soft fleshy part of your face. BTW you didn't mention how much it hurt! I was the one there listening to the torrent of expletives pouring from your mouth. Still the beers numbed a certain amount of the pain (and the barmaid was really impressed - NOT)

Ah, Gunnar my Icelandic friend.

I am looking forward to my journey North to see you guys. Just need to convince my good lady that Iceland is a wonderful destination for a vacation.

I know a great muscle pass and with only a few minutes practice. Some might say unbelievable.

I'd love to go swimming in that Blue Lagoon place, even if it is the run off from a power plant.
