Charity magician

Postby Discombobulator » Nov 15th, '05, 01:08



Hi, My name is Gordon. I was very interested in close-up Magic 25 years ago, but never really performed much. Work and family life took over and it is only recently that I discovered all my equipment in the loft, dusted everydown and started performing a routine in order to collect money for my favourite charity (World Vision.)

My day job has me travelling all over the place, staying in hotels most nights. I started doing magic in hotel bars as a fun way to meet new people and collect a little money for the charity. The money I collect from magic performances is used to help me sponsor a child in the third world. Please see www.worldvision.org.uk for details. They have some great charity christmas gifts (e.g. buy a toilet for a village as an alternative gift for that someone special in your life - as long as they have a good sense of humour!)

I recently had to buy a load of new stuff. there is not much call for a 2p, 1p and 1/2p shell these days ! Much of old stuff still works well, but I do like modern effects such as d-lites etc.

It's not really an optical illusion - it just looks like one!
