Well I hope you are all well and surviving the current "Squeeze".

Things are tight down here too. Work has become less plentiful and more chasing has to be done. I must admit the Summer is looking quite good and work is coming in quite well. I really think it is a case of us all weathering the storm and making the best of a bad job.

Now on with the offers.
I have decided to use the "Special Offer" Category's at the top of the page in future and add and remove as an ongoing thing. All Special offers will now be contained within this set of items. So you need to keep in touch as the offers change as and when something good comes in.

THIS WILL TAKE EFFECT AS FROM 1/2/12 WHEN THE OLD OFFERS END.

Below is pictures of some of our really great items currently in stock, please check the out.

Well I would be interested to hear your comments.

Thank you for reading this.

Best Wishes
Colin & May

Making Magical Memories by Colin Dymond
This book has been written by a "Real Pro" as I call it. You can tell by the writing of this book on Children's Show know how this man knows what he is talking about and talks about lots of aspects of putting a show and even describes some of his "Pet" effects. Well worth a read.


Chop Card
This is a great Utility Prop for all card workers


Magic Cars Trick, "Ambitious Card to Wallet" by Mark Cheetham
This trick has been originated, tried and tested by one of the South Wests experienced performers. Gone is all the "Finger Flinging" and Mark has put all the effort into the performance rather than the execution. If you have always fancied a Card to Wallet, this is the one for you!!


Flyaway Birds
This has not been around for a while and originally made by Jack Hughes (one of this Country's finest Dealers) and is a really great trick for the Playschool audience. Well worth a look.

Colin John Magic Shop PRE CHRISTMAS NEWSLETTER

Well its that time of year again when you have to dust of the Christmas version of Farmyard Frolics and put on your Christmas Happy Face.


To be honest with you I don't do too many Christmas tricks I feel that the parents and the Children are so smothered with it, it is not exciting any more!! Perhaps I am getting old or a miserable old git, but I really think most people think this. I know when I was very young the lead up was just breathtaking because it was about 3 weeks but now Christmas decorations are on sale again (after the New Years sales, which seem to last forever) at Easter.


I must admit also I have routined my own Christmas tricks by using a few utility props and made it just exclusive to me. Perhaps people cant be bothered any more, I don't know.


The new range of 260 Budget Balloons have really flown out the door and people are really pleased with the quality. Just as an added incentive I have given an extra 15% for a limited period.


Please also have a look at the new range of Round Balloons too. On offer at present!!


Well enough of me whinging on here is the info;

Colin John Magic Shop June Newsletter

Where did May go to??????
It was as if it never happened. At least it was more productive (show wise) than April. April was really bad.Luckily I was able to do some Workshops which pulled me out a bit. That is why this month I have put some discount on the Workshops & Courses page. It has really been one of the most productive forms of work I have ever took up and over the last few years people have wanted to be more "hands on" instead of the Magic Shows where the kids just sit down and watch.


Another area which I have scored heavily with is with "Fortune Telling". I thought I would mention it as my "better half" May is arranging a workshop on 13/6/10 of "Card Reading". There are spaces available available at present and here is the link;  http://www.wizardnumerology.co.uk/subprod/for-2010-0003349.aspx Also over the years I have done well with is Punch & Judy and that is why I have extended the offer for this month on this.


Two other areas I have offered on the "Top 5" this month is "Cards" and Secondhand Books. The reason for the books is I am running out of space and I would like to get rid of a few.


Just a word of warning. I will have to shortly put the price up on the Battery Balloon Blower and it will probably be next month or when the next lot of parts run out. If you want one now is the time to do it!!!


Please have a look in SPECIAL OFFERS. I have put the last of the small Amp setups on offer, have  a look!!


Well enough of the chat, here is the "TOP 5". Available until the 30th June 2010


1. Workshops. 20% discount


2. Punch & Judy 20% discount


3. Cards 10% discount


4. Second Hand Books 30% discount


5. Special Offers Section 30% discount


Well I hope this was of use to you, enjoy June

Colin John Magic Shop May 2010 Newsletter

Well, the start of Spring! The beginning of the Holiday Camp Season, or is it? We find these days that a lot of the Camps are doing their own, "in house" shows and having the Magic Show being done by one of the team.
It is now time to think outside the box. Start to think of other ways to generate work. I appear to be getting a lot of Shopping Centre Shows which have become a godsend and I am very glad of it. You then have to work out different shows and even offer Workshops and maybe Punch & Judy to offer something other then Magic.

This is why this month I have decided to give you a bit of a helping hand with the discounts I have offered. Please have a look now at the things that are on offer and a couple of new items to the range.
Especially with the economic climate the way it is at the moment and as I write this Newsletter the thought of a "Hung Parliament", (whatever that means and it's implications!) I hope this may be of use to you.

Well the end of another month!! ;and the end of one of Magic's GREATEST Magicians, yes Pat Page. He was a great performer and a vast knowledge too. I remember meeting him for the first time when he was managing Davenports when it was opposite the British Museum in about 1973. At the time I didn't realise who he was and I certainly didn't realise who the American Magician was who popped in too while I was there............Ricky Jay I found out afterwards. Well Pat old friend REST IN PEACE you will never be forgotten.
