Hello everyone,
I have been on the CAFÉ for a long time and have met some really great people along the way. I am writing to let you know that I will be taking some time off from this place.

I started doing magic in 1978 and have performed in places that I would never had thought I would have. I turn to mentalism a few years back and have NEVER looked back. Mentalism gave me a new drive and made me re-think how I presented my routines.

At last, I am just burn out from everything. It isn’t fun anymore and hard for me to continue. I just can’t go on right now and decided to take some time off. Will I be back, I can’t say right now. If the bug bites me again then I will be back. If not, then I want to say thank you to everyone for their friendship.

Time to go; I can see the curtain coming down and I am taking one last bow as the lights fade to black.

Best
Ray Noble

I hope you have a productive break. It was nice knowing you through the board, and I am sure we will all look forward to your eventual return.

EB

All the best on your new journeys in life and hope to see you back soon.

I always liked you...so indeed heartfelt best wishes.

Now you will have time to come to Orlando and share some Pirate's Punch !!!!!

Please keep in touch.

I'll miss your input. May you have a smooth life, whatever it may be.


Tom.

I say good riddance!!! I never liked the geezer anyway!

Only kidding dude, from the brief chats we have had in the past you are one decent guy and I feel honoured to meet someone as genuine and friendly as you.

Try learning an instrument or how to yodel!!!!

Best wishes in everything that you do fella.

Im certainly gonna miss you round here.

Peace & Love

Sorry to see you leaving but I understand "magic burnout". Best of luck to you in the future.

Best,

Mike

P.S. Are you dropping out of just magic (and now concentrating on your new love, mentalism), or, have you quit all forms of magic arts?

I don't think Ray is going to answer that, he said he was leaving.

HI Ray!
All the best!

Ray,

I'll miss you too. I like your input. I hope you take a nice vacation, rest up, and then return.


Good magic to all,


Eric

I had the same problem. my break was a at least one year. I was tired of all that.
But it`s impossible to quit forever. I think we see you in 6-12 month!

I took a 5 year break in 2000. Was very hard to stay away from the scene. Chances are your mind will continue to create to a point you cant handle it anymore and return. I came up with an entire new 2 hours of material in that 5 year break. Either way good luck!
