My visit to the SCA

 

 

What a great night I had at the SCA. I was presenting  a brief talk on routining, and I had a fabulous time. I had the absolute joy of presenting Mentalism, 'soft' bizarre and card 'stuff'.

 

It was literally like coming home. The SCA is without a doubt my home turf.

 

It was great to see a few familiar faces and also a few new ones. I cannot put into words the respect I have of this group.  Of course I have been involved with it on off  over the last 30 years.

 

The Bizarre material really takes me back to my first love as it were. This is where I feel most at home.

 

It has been suggested that the content could be used to structure a new lecture. Hmm!!! I need to think about that.

 

To be honest I expected to get a bit of  a hard time, because in the 'talk' I also spoke about palmistry and tarot readings and magicians tend to NOT be overly fond of these subjects, but to be fair to the members they listened to what I had to say. Although I doubt that I converted anyone.

 

This type of evening makes me long for the bizarre days and the conventions. Maybe, I should once again venture forth into the realm of the bizare and arcane arts!

 

Ah! What a breath of fresh air.

 

Till next time,

 

Fare ye well.
