I was coming on here to say sorry there was not a blog last week as we were away at the Blackpool Magic convention and also there would be no blog next week as again we are away at the British Balloon Convention, again in Blackpool. Just looked and it says the last blog I wrote was on the 19th January. Now that might be the case, worried look on my face OR it might be the site had to be re-booted as we have had all the spam messages we delete over the year pop back up and I have had to delete them again? Off to chat with web technical guys after we have written the post.
So Blackpool magic convention last weekend with David was a lot of fun and really enjoyable, the last gala show on the Sunday night with Rick Thomas was just pure theatre and wonderful. With two flying illusions in the full evening show, was lovely to see. David and I made the Shark’s and Cage for the photo shoot, pictures are here on Balloon Chat if you would like to view them, Shark and Cage.

That’s me for this week, see you in a fortnight with news from the balloon convention, there are a handful
of spaces available if anyone would like to attend last minute, Balloon Convention.
Off to find the random balloon pictures of the week, I expect it will be the Roses as that is the model of the month for March.
