A big hello and interrupted handshake to you all...

I'm Adrian, 18, live in Melbourne, and am new to this whole magic thing.

Areas of interest are: 1) Mentalism, 2) Card Magic, and 3) Bizarre Magic, though with the latter, I'm content with just spectating, as I can imagine the amount of money and number of props needed would be too much of a hassle for this young student.


Also, a quick question for those that live in Melbourne: Anybody know about the local scene? Are there any clubs that I could possibly investigate? And is there any place CBD-wise that sells standard Bicycle deck's for less than $8?

Thanks y'all, looking forward to entering this new world.

Hi and welcome! Bernard's in Melbourne used to have a lot of magic but no idea of how keen their prices are, sorry.

Bernards is bloody expensive (or at least it is to the non-knowledgeable):

I still remember back a few years ago when me and friends visited Bernards purely to purchase fun novelty-type items.

"$20? For a jar of springy snake things disguised as a jar of peanuts?! ...oh all right then..."

What a money sucker

Oh, and thanks for the welcome [/b]

Wow pricy stuff. I guess Bernard's is where folks just go to look at stuff (but go home and buy on the Interweb thingy at half the cost !)

Hello and welcome to TM

Welcome mate.

Buy everything online.. everything... its so much cheaper and you get that excitement of waiting for the package to arrive..

Welcome Adrian Hope that you enjoy your time here at TM.

Thanks guys, now I just have to get myself a job so I have a regular source of income, and therefore a regular source of knowledge haha.

Hi Adrian, welcome to TM

Thanks Lady Mystery, now off to find me a better looking avatar

Y'all have made me feel welcome.

And as one final ask, there's nobody out there who could inform me about the Melbourne magic scene?
