I didn't take a camera (because I don't own one

) but there were a few around so pictures may surface in the next week or so.
I didn't make Balooni, I made a fellow lifting weights, then made him into a hat, and won the "best hat" competition.
I had no intention of running any work shops but a couple of people seemed interested in learning some basics so thought i'd show them; the convention organisers were kind enough to buy me a couple of bags of balloons so I could continue workshopping. The evening event very quickly deteriorated into a couple of dozen people (about a third of the room) forming a circle round me an learning to make balloon flowers, the hall soon became a balloon garden (and graveyard) and I declared balloons were better than juggling!
I go to magic conventions and juggle, I now go to juggling conventions and do balloons; all i need now is a balloon convention to go do magic at!
