Haven't read anything on the Cafe, but it was a really excellent day. It was very relaxed and all of the lecturers were only too happy to wander and help people out or session between lectures and performances. Tyler Wilson was hilarious and Kostya Kimlat impressed everyone as a very nice and open guy which shines through in his performances. Everyone was very approachable all day.
There were also some great performances from non-lecturers. Some were magicians I had never come across before, but I think I was impressed by everyone I saw, especially Pete Wardell and Tim Shoesmith.
Great price too especially considering food was included. The venue wasn't ideal but bearable. Since the organisers said that they could have sold it out twice over I hope this will encourage them to book somewhere bigger if they decide to do it again.
If you're reading this Rob & Andi, thanks for a superb day.
