Hi
Though I am based in Sunny Lowestoft UK....Gisleham actually ! I work onboard assorted cruise ships, where I run the Casino's. At present I am in Philipines training staff for an new cruise ship based out of Shanghai. I've been in the Casino business for 20 years. I enjoyed magic when I was younger. But once I become involved in the gaming industry I became obsessed with all forms of card and coin and chip manipulations. As you can imagine my interests are in close up and card magic. I just love the reactions I get !

Steve

Trust me you don't want to go on this ship...it's a rust bucket. it's only sailing from China for the gambling. Asians LOVE to gamble....!!

Er, cancel that request for on board accommodation - I'm sure I can find a canoe or inflatable dinghy I can use!

(At some point soon, someone is going to mention the old joke about the Magician and the parrot on a sinking Cruise ship....... :twisted: )
