I would like to do this as a part of my close up/walk around act.....

I would love to attend any lectures you hold on picking pockets for entertainment purposes...

Much love

That was indeed very good and enjoyable.

As a matter of interest here is a clip of the greatest pickpocket I have ever seen. I saw him on British television about 40 years ago and have never forgotten it. I thought I would do a You Tube search for him and expected nothing to appear. But I struck gold. Here he is and incidentally he was George Kovari's mentor in Hungary.
