I'm free! (just)

Still busy with gigs but I have a few spaces in my diary should you want to book me for your wedding or event. I can entertain your guests or promote your business or product and offer competitive rates.

Fayre game

I've recently updated my website (thanks to my lovely missus) and started attending more wedding fayres. I find these a good source of gigs but also like mingling with the other exhibtors and sharing info and contacts. It always surprises me the sheer amount and variety of services on offer for weddings. I used to feel a little awkward about touting for weddings as magic is still a relatively new and different to the norm type of entertainment. However, having seen how much people charge for chair covers, favours, candles and ice scupltures I feel I offer very good value for money for an entertaining service that can make a big difference to an event.

Phew!

Well, things are still very busy and I've had recent gigs at weddings, council run youth enterprises, parties and corporate do's galore!
I've also recently joined equity of which I'm quite proud. Bring on the telly work!

Busy, busy, busy..

Been really busy of late, particularly with weddings. I'm loving performing for so many great couples and their guests.

Thanks to my lovely missus I also have a new business card that looks like this 8

I get tired of explaining that I don't do kid's parties and hope this may limit that a little...

Wedded Bliss

Performed at 2 lovely weddings recently. Had a swell time at Mike and Zoe's reception at the Hillcrest (same place I had my weddingn do, brought back nice memories). Mike and Fiona's wedding up in Wetherby was lovely too, great people and location. Unfortunately I hadn't been well prior to the gig but I've found adrenaline, energy drinks and cavonia can cure all!

Wallets and Weddings

The Undercover wallet is selling quite well and a demo vid is up on my site: www.bobcatmgic.com/products.html I'll be attending some wedding fayres in the next few months to drum up some more business and hopefully beecome busy over the summer.

Undercover Wallet is here!

Well another few weeks of gigs and stuff under my belt and at last the wallet is out on the market. I've been amazed at the response it has gotten and the nice comments. Just need to create a demo vid now and promote it fully but the charger for my camera is bust so I'm waiting on a new one thanks to the magic of eBay.

All good....

Things are still looking good. Had some gigs that have gone swimmingly and everyone has enjoyed themselves. The wallet should be out on the market within the next week or 2 and I'm hopefully going to add some new videos to the website including a more "me" performance video. Maybe even an interactive one too!

Mmmmmm.... nice.

I've had some nice gigs lately.
Halloween at O2 Preston Brook was fun. I really enjoyed myself at the Sartorius Jones wedding and Liam's 21st birthday too.
My column in The Budget magazine is also continuing next year at the request of the editor (thank you Mr Tucker) and I'm looking forward to The Session magic convention in January.
All in all, having quite a nice time at the moment and looking forward to Christmas and the new year.

New Invention

Being the creative guy I am, I've come up with a new idea and method for an impossible Bill/Card to Box design. My wonderful Dad is currently making me a prototype out of MDF to play with. If it works, I'll make up a posh one out of Walnut and post a vid on my website.

Products on their way....

I've had a few products in the form of a wallet and e-books "pending" for a while. Well the e-books should be uploaded soon and the wallet instructions are nearing completion also. Look on the site over the next week or 2 for updates.

NHS gig

I performed last week for the NHS at a drug and alcohol rehabilitation ward. All went well, it was the first time I'd gigged anywhere like that and really enjoyed it.

Mousey

I've put together some new tricks to include in my repertoire, many of which bizarrely have a "rodenty" theme to them. Maybe I should make a feature of that and link them together? Hmm....

Something Special

Last week at work I trained some special needs pupils who came in on work experience. As part of this I performed some magic and had loads of fun with the kids. Heck, I even did a balloon animal! (Which for me is like the pinnacle of all evil). Really enjoyed it though.

Magic in work

I got asked to perform magic in work today as several managers were leaving and they put on a bit of a bash. I really enjoyed performing but was knackered after 5 hours of magic mayhem. Should've got em to pay me for it on top of my standard wage though the tight fisted gits.

Coming soon....

At some point soon, I hope to release my "Undercover Wallet" onto the market. This is a new design of wallet that has many, many uses. I've had the wallet made by Tony Curtis and the quality is excellent. Look out for news soon of its relaease and some videos of it in use.

Ello,
Well I've still managed not to succumb to the "evil borg" that is Facebook, but I have gone and finally got myself a blog. My lovely wife hs done some magic on my website and it looks like I'll eventually, at some point soon actually start to market my own products. Updates will appear here periodically, sometimes with something of interest to you all I hope.
Content will vary from details of my column in The Budget magazine to general "life stuff" but all will have some sort of magical theme to it... probably.
