I Won't be on the forum for a couple of days (hopefully) although it could be quite a lot longer!

Got some rather important court dates coming up! God damn muggers! Got what they deserve and I get punished!

Im sure I won't be missed

Hope it goes OK for you.

Looks like I'm back quicker than I thought. All went well for all that read/cared!

Please tell me they gave you a medal.

Hate when that happens, I have had a similar experience in the past. Could be worse though, this is what happened to a friend.

A good mate of mine, in his 40s was walking home one night and saw a bunch of lads in their 20s giving a taxi driver s***. Trying to pull him out of the cab etc. Yer man goes over and calls out to the lads to ease off, and when they don't listen pulls them off the cab.

Long story short, the 4 lads lay into my mate, break his arm, give him a hiding, and the taxi driver he tried to help did a legger as soon as the attention was off him, all the while 3 other drivers sat at the rank watching.

Some people these days.

this was a few years back now, but a bit of street justice if ever i heard of one..

a guy i knew, asleep in his car in a secluded street, having a little kip as he was too tired to drive...got woken up, with 4 kids, about 15-18 years old trying to bust open his car and rob him...luckily, it was all locked up...

but he woke up with a buzz of adrenelin...shouted, and they started throwing things at the car window...so he started up the engine, and clipped two of them, then reversed and managed to catch a third too...

bit OTT i suppose, but hey, a broken leg and a cut head sometimes teaches a lesson or two...

Believe it, or believe it not, I stole my first magic trick, that was a cheesy thimble trick from a Poundshop at the age of 11 and thats where it all got started. I didn't steal it for any reason other than the fact that I wanted to steal something!

Assualt and thieft. All the honour magicians once had where is that. Having said that if some one pulls a knife out on me they would have to use it with in 3 seconds of producing it.

Assualt and thieft.

Thats theft.

and... Karma is the correct spelling!

Either way, I'm fine and things are all sorted!

The thing about the knife is so true, it happens so much in London that your best to put up a fight! Before it was just a threat, now most kids wouldn't think twice about stabbing you.

We are going to get on like a house of fire i see.

Which is why I always carry a loaded gun.

An ape with a loaded gun?

this is the chap you need, Freddie

He's the fella!
Not one to be messed with.

Is that a banana in his pocket or is he pleased to see us

The only ape/monkey I've got is this guy, who doesn't come with a gun:



This was knitted for me by my grandmother when I was young. You can pop the eyes out to reveal the cotton stuffing underneath, like this.



His name's Popeye, for precisely that reason. He's never done a magic show, and I don't know if he can be trained at his age.
