Does anyone have any experience of "Winks Diary"?
Is it similar to a trick that I think was called "Moores Diary?
I think there is a clip at Alakazam but I get the impression that it has been well edited and I don't think it is as straight forwrd as they would have you beleive as there appear to be a a lot of blank moments on the video of it.
Cheers Pudcat

I had this pre-ordered and have been using it ever since. Very easy to perform. I will get a review done ASAP.

I bought this recently and I was very disappointed. The method is too simple and easily worked out by anyone who spends more than 20 seconds thinking about it. In my view (and I've said this on other forums) its a magazine article elevated to DVD status for no apparent reason. In fairness, there are also those who like it - and its possible some people will be fooled by it - initially. But not if they backtrack the method in their minds (which isn't difficult to do). If they forget the proceedure, then you will probably get away with it...but its a very simple proceedure which can be backtracked too easily to reveal the very transparent method.

The beginning of that seems more like an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm than a magic DVD.

For anyone interested there is a vidoe on You Tobe of this effect.

With the advent of video demos I would have thought dealers would have abandoned their old ways and describe the effects as they are. If a video of an effect can not be played in full without clever editing then I stop looking.
