I especially liked the slight variation on the Rub a dub vanish. I shall be using that.

Shade was released in the U.K, I rented it from blockbusters about 2 years ago.

All the changes with two cards on the table and when he turns them over they are switched are amazing. Are these taught in Expert at the Card Table? I had a look at the content but I don't know what they are called

They're on one of Daryl's Encyclopedia of Card Sleights, i think. Number 7 or 8 maybe.

You'll find some of these moves on Ian Kendall's "Mucking Hard Moves made Easy"

http://www.virtualmagicshow.com/shop/

I'll probably do a review on this some time soon.

Just to say that MHM has been reviewed here

But I'm always happy to see more opinions :)

Take care, Ian

EDIT: There's also a link on the shop page to a review on the Cafe, but the link didn't paste correctly...
