I seen this quite a while ago on another bored (American i think) and it was a pretty good thread, so I'll try it here

What are you Practicing, Perfecting and Performing at the moment? I'm...

Practicing:- Paper cut
Perfecting:- Pen through bill, Tic Tac coin
Performing:- Meltdown

And of course much from Bobo's MCM and RRTCM

Effects with a stacked deck.
Card warp(Simple but still practiced)
Sinful
indecent
coin roll(always practice!)
Various impromptu card tricks(wont list all names)

I must admit I've been slacking a bit recently, I'd better get on with it!

Working really hard at being able to memorise a full fair shuffled deck from a single viewing. Have got up to 20 cards reliably. This may do for the effect I'm working on - reciting an entire deck may get a bit tiresome for the average spec.

Practicing:- Mohammed Bey's Okito Box Routine
Perfecting:- my multiplying sponge rabbits routine
Performing:- my houdini card routine, a couple of sponge routines and my coin routine

Practicing:- 3rd Degree Burn, Jeff McBridge's Linking Ring routine
Perfecting:- Appearing Cane, my new heavier Zombie
Performing:- Supreme's Water-Lu, Masuda's Wow, Sponge Ball Routine

Wishing it would arrive before I die: Outlaw's Scorpion
Watching: Spongeball Toolkit and 22 Blows To The Head
Reading: Banachek's PK Touches and 13 Steps to Mentalism

Practicing;- The Muscle Pass and coin roll

I've got a nice 10p sized box which I use

Ahh yes, I think they stock them at Davenports, but the man demonstrating made a right fluff of it.
