wow he would not miss a trick…….

I loved your last paragraph gentle author :-

“”…….these were all people who had constructed out-of-the-ordinary lives for themselves through sheer inventiveness and nerve. Loners who travel the world and perform alone, they embody the true power of magic – transforming their own lives and elevating existence for everyone else in the process.””

just so beautiful

How wonderful to meet such fascinating people. I remember one Christmas many years past, closing my eyes, really hoping I’d get a magic set. It was against the odds as my parents thoughts girls should only play with dolls, but there it was, under the tree, just for me. I put on a magic show for my mum and her friends and loved that they pretended to be impressed. 🙂

Fab portrait photography as well. Another lovely slice of Spitalfields life.

I would think that you performed some kind of magic to get into such a reclusive event, maybe you have invented the author on the wall trick.

By the way, there’s a Paul Nash Evening at St Bride’s next Thursday (1st Dec) – a fundraiser for the printing library.
