Hello to all I have always love magic.
ever since I birthday party when a magician tost all the plain ingredients of a cake into a baking tin eggs hole flash set it on fire and turned out a cake. I think I was 8

well time runs by and I'm know in the summer of life with three good kids with children of their own. so Grandad has decided it's time to learn a card trike or two and a bit of the old school magic and entertain the grand children and friends

2009 I bought some cards and gaff deck but then life got in the way as it does, ill health ect.

well I think it's time to learn more. I'm quite curious about Jason England and his slight of hand, I will look on YouTube and if I find a good trick I will find it on the internet (theory11, illusionist)
I'm trying my hand at Death to the double undercut by Joel Paschall but having trouble moving the first packet and moving to the second packet
I would like to learn some simple coin magic as well

First time ace

HI thanks for a great intro, welcome to TM!

Last time I did the self baking cake it was for a Christmas gig so I used a 4" real fruit cake lovingly decorated (by Tesco!) with icing, little reindeer and fir trees. All went well for a while until the weight of the cake proved too much for the retaining springs and the damn thing dropped into view sooner than expected!
