Magic at Hoghton Tower

I was booked for a party at Hoghton Tower on Tuesday. There were a number of people on a coach trip touring the north west and having dinner there.

Hoghton Tower is the place where James the first when going round England stayed and knighted a roast of beef which is why we now call it a sir-loin. That must have been some party he had!

I was dressed in medieval costume, yellow tights again...

I was only there an hour but had a great time with everyone.

Lauren and Amy's 21st

Jonathan invited me to perform at Lauren and Amy's 21st party in Liverpool last night.

I was a total surprise for everyone, I think Jonathan had kept the secret brilliantly.

The evening started with some close up magic during the meal and then moved into my 'Illusions of the Mind' act afterwards. I had some wonderful reactions to the act and I'm sure that everyone had a great time.

Thanks everyone, hope to see you again soon.

Reunion at Lindeth Howe

Mike booked me for his annual reunion party on Saturday at Lindeth Howe Hotel in the Lakes.

I was performing close up magic for around 40 people during the meal and my 'Illusions of the Mind' act afterwards.
I'm sure everyone had a great time, I certainly did.

This was the first time that I had visited Lindeth Howe. It is a really nice hotel hidden away in Bowness. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Thank you for a great evening everyone, hope to see you soon.

Anne and Brian's Wedding

Anne and Brian booked me to entertain their guests at Wrightington Hall Country Club last Sunday. There were around 100 people and although the weather might have been a little kinder, we all had a great time. The magic took place while the photographer did his stuff and continued during the first part of the meal. The carvery was wonderful, just the thing for a hungry magician!

Leighton Hall's Magician

Mrs Gillow-Renolds and her family have booked me for a number of appearances at Leighton Hall over the summer.

I will be in medieval costume, complete with yellow tights! entertaining the visitors to Leighton Hall.

If you haven't been to Leighton Hall you really must have a look. It is the family home of the famous Gillow family of Waring and Gillow the Lancaster furniture makers. It is set in the most glorious countryside near to Carnforth and the house is fascinating to look round. You might even see my tights!
