Is it just me, or are pretty much all manipulation effects, almost identical?

You should have got him to sign it so it would be worth a fortune :D !

There were a few moans about that after the show - you'd think, being magicians, they'd check all the angles for that kind of thing!

The list usually develops from September onwards with new names being added every so often. I'm sure they only do that to tantalise and tempt us all the more!

My memories of last year: spending a lot more money that I meant to. Yeah I saw some great acts, met some great people and had a laugh... but DAMN I'm going to have to set a limit on spending next year.

I've got a feeling that it's going to be a lot busier this year... Just a hunch.
