You have between 8 and 12 minutes as I did:
1. A cut and restored rope routine
2. A chop cup routine using the knot left over from the restored rope instead of a crochet ball.
3. A version of Andy Nyman's The Hidden which I adapted to suit the items left on the table
4. To end, I did a healed chop cup where it was shown to be a solid piece of wood.
The secrets are:
Keep it simple, keep it varied and include the audience.
