Hello
I am BaBaBoom, aka Simon aka "are you putting on weight?"
32/m/Manchester

As everyone I have always loved magic, always thought I could never do it and always meant to get around to learning but never did.
Some time ago I had a row with a drunk driver and his lorry on my motorbike and the movement of my hands and legs were somewhat drunk, shall we say.
I picked up magic as a way to try and regain control of my hands, they needed the exercise and I needed the hobby.
Worked wonders and now 6 months later I find I know more than I ever thought I could but still have much more to learn than I know.
Safe to say I'm still in the "needs smoothing" stage for many things.

I use my magic to entertain myself and others but mainly to get free beer and smiles from the ladies :)
Magic gave me a hobby, confidence and hope, I really do feel honoured to know what I do and to be able to drop jaws.
I also love this board, if you are a guest or are new and think, feels a bit like they are all mates, don't worry.
Just introduce yourself and get to know everyone, they are all mad (requirement for magicians I hear) and very friendly.



ps, this is me, I will not refund the price of your screen when it cracks. 2 years ago..

Only just spotted the reference to the other site and your photo. Didn't realise you were into the glamour posing, stretched out on the floor kind of thing! :wink:

Like to see your drinking good ol' "machine" nescafe coffee. I oftyen frequent the college canteen purchasing coffee thrice daily. O... on that note did anyone see the David Blaine special where he turnedthe cup of coffee into coins? Do you know what this effect is called?

You clutter away m8 :)

The cup/coin trick is an old easy to do trick but still has an impact, I am not sure what it's called though.
