How do you spend your Friday night..... All will be revealed..... especially if you book me for your Christmas party

Well 17 years of developing this effect and, after some help from some very good friends, a few flashes of inspiration and a lot of ripped up cards i think i might have it cracked

They say never met your heroes. There's every chance you'll be let down. I can confirm Paul Zenon is a really great bloke and just as fabulous a magician and hilarious comedian as he always has been. South Tyneside International Magic Festival did not disappoint. Can't wait to do it all again next year!!

It's time to revisit this classic because, after 15 years of adapting, I think I've had a breakthrough

Feedback like this makes it all worth it....even the breakdown on the way home:

I really liked how friendly Simon was when I made Initial enquiry

There was nothing we disliked it was brilliant how Simon went round every table and made sure every guest got to see his Amazing magic
I would certainly book again, he was mind blowing.

Thank you so much again Simon for being part of our baby's special day

How do you relax after a gig .....im guessing not like this. Well I'm home now and destroyed a huge takeaway and a pint. And before anyone says.... No i couldn't just magic it back home

All dressed and ready to go now some mind with an afternoon of close up magic

Finally get to add these to my library.
It's been a long time coming but they are all mine!!

What better way to start the day than with a strong coffee and a magician with some strong opinions

Seeing as I've cut the grass I might as well treat myself to a few hours with this master.

Seeing as it's a nice night and all my work is fine I might as well spend a few hours in the company of the master

Sooooo I promised some big news and here it is.....

My new effect Puerto Rican Poker has just gone live with Alakazam and can be found here:

It's a really fair take on the 10 card poker deal. Here's what people are saying:

"This is a fun effect that I can see playing massive in a close up or parlour setting. I'll take two please!" - Alan Rorrison

"When your participant thinks there's no way you could win but you hit them with a twist they did not see coming...five stars! And on that note, it's five stars from me!" - Joel Dickinson

This is a really fun version of the 10 Card Poker Deal. The combination of methods really gives the spectator the impression that they are in control of everything. And the pay off at the end is very unexpected. -
Craig Petty

It's currently on an early bird offer of £9.99

What are you waiting for...... Go and buy it!!!

Should be some very exciting news coming up in the next day or two..... Can't say too much but it's another thing to tick off my magic bucket list......stay tuned for more information. I promise, you're not going to want to miss this!!!

An productive day spent here. Can't say too much at the moment but exciting times ahead

23/10/2023

A wonderful night celebrating the life and work of not only a great magician but a great friend.

I heard today on the radio that, on average, people spend 10 minutes a day dreaming about their dream job. I'm very lucky that I have my dream job. 7 year old me would be going loopy to know I get to do magic for a living, even to the extent of writing a book on it....... Never stop dreaming people

Just leaving this here as a little reminder....

If you are ever in any doubt about which magician to hire......

20 degree heat and I'm going to perform magic in the wool suit. Putting style before comfort since 1982
