Waskett old chap. Kindly go and play in the traffic.
This wild card personage is a most impertinent teenager and as such needs to be reprimanded. It will be noted that on this thread he was the one to show rudeness first without having made a formal appointment to do so.
As for Martin Macmillan no doubt he is a little biased concerning my book since his dad is mentioned a fair bit in it and a good part of my routine comes from Ron Macmillan. In fact if there was no International Magic there would have been no Mark Lewis Svengali Routine.
I well remember when Martin was about nine years old he and his mother were standing beside me on a freezing market stall in London somewhere or other with me trying to earn a living for the three of us with the svengali deck. It was the early days of International Magic. I am not sure where Ron was at the time or why I was standing there at the market instead of him. I expect he was in the pub.
I think I gave Georgina, Martin's sister a copy of my book when she was in Toronto recently. I don't think International Magic stock my book which I consider odd since the damn book had it's roots in the company. Even Betty Davenport sells it. Tell Martin that he should order it from Murphy's or direct from me.
