Any review of macmillan convention would be appreciate, especially giobbi's lecture and the close up show please ?

It is the best magic convention in the calendar. Thanks and well done to the organisers for a fun time!

Highlights:

Kostya Kimlat's excellent card magic (lecture and performances).
Derren Brown's interview and question-and-answer session.
Martin Eisle's winning performance in the close-up competition.
The high quality (yet again) of the gala show (every act was outstanding).
My card trick in the bar, which shocked the whole of the ground floor into silence

Lowlights:

The 4 hour length of close-up competition, of which only 1 hour was worth watching.
The lack of breaks between events.
The cost of breakfast at the Novotel.

Hi folks

I posted reviews of both the Convention and the Close Up Competition on my blog page which you can find at thecardman's blog.

Enjoy!
