I do hope everyone had a fun today, I thought it went very well and thanks to Don for coming over and taking the time and trouble to fit this into his busy schedule, it's always good to hear honest feedback of what people thought of the day either on the forum or with a PM as we are always looking to improve the days and what we can offer :D

The M25 to heathrow was a nightmare, what normally takes 35 mins took two hours  :o
We left at five and got to the airport at seven with Don fast asleep all the way. Mind you his body clock must be well out, we couldn't get any pictures of him asleep due to both our camera's being in the back of the car. Still we have got a nice picture of Thelma fast asleep on my couch this morning after she got up at 3 in the morning and rang me at 5.45 to say she was outside my house and could I let her in.

All those wanting me to post the pictures let me know, although everyone who came to the day has seen them  ;)

Some pictures of Don up London on Thursday seeing the sites; we went on the south bank to see the buskers and found a couple twisting, they were turning out nice simple quick and easy models that were getting a good response from joe public while turning over what seemed like a nice steady profit.
Does anyone know who they are?
We also saw a good juggling duo who did standard juggling but a very nice 8 ft ladder routine.

I also have a picture of  Don fast asleep on the train coming home :)

I don't think I've met anyone as excited as Mark was to meet Don. This was at the magic club on Thursday night.
Thelma changing the design and name on Kerry's bag, this was very funny but you just had to be there to appreciate it  :D
Thelma showing Kerry her new balloon belt, although Kerry seems to be looking elsewhere  :o

1, Don attempting to play hide and seek, I think we may know where he is though  :)
2, Dave helping Don with another of his routines
3, Don chose the last hour to talk and discuss marketing which for me was the most fascinating part of the day, interesting to see how his mind works on such matters.

Funny you should say that Tony as Don spent a fair amount of time telling us he was evil   :o and devious  :shock:  and I am sure he mentioned world domination a couple of times too  :shock:
We are all willing foot solidiers of his  :D
