When I was about 9, my family and I went on holiday to Rhyl. We stopped by this pub near to the train station for a drink and a snack and my father got talking to this old boy at the bar. Turns out this old boy was a Magician with fifty years plus experience. I remember it like it was yesterday. He showed me Dynamic Coins and a few card effects and I was captivated! I actually cried when we had to leave because I wanted to see more. From that day on, I knew that I wanted to do magic for the rest of my life. For my tenth birthday, I got a Paul Daniels magic set and would do shows for my parents and neighbours. I did my first paid gig when I was twelve (my little cousins birthday party!) and the rest, as they say, is history!
