just thought I would pop in and say hello, I have been enjoying magic for the last 35yrs 10yrs performing under the name Stuart J doing all the usuall childrens shows, slowly I felt a change in the way the shows were going, many parents didnt really want an entertainer more a baby sitter that they could drink the day away, dont get me wrong there are still some great parents out there, just a small minority who I felt spoiled it for many, thus the early retirement, for the last 18 months I have started rehearsing again this time for my first love Mentalism the routines have developed and I'm now in a position to perform a 45 min set, this has been aranged for early 2008, its a small gig around thirty people so hopefully will go down well, I hope in the future to be able to contribute to the forums and enjoy a long stay
Thanks Tanis
