I'm a foreigner living in England (well, I'm Welsh and on a clear day I can just see the coastline of the old country across the water!). I'm a writer and occasional broadcaster - mainly computer magazines these days, but I've dabbled in all kinds of things.
Magical interests: visual magic (the great illusions), mental magic and magic in literature (e.g. Clayton Rawson and the Golden Age of detective fiction). Very much a beginner in magic so I'll no doubt be pestering you for help and advice shortly. Best wishes Huw |

Hi Huw
Let me welcome you with a cup of strong Turkish coffee on my bill. Be prepared to spend lots of time here because coffee (especially if it is Turkish) makes addiction.
Magically Yours,

Welcome aboard, Huw.
And feel free to "pester", as you call it; actually it's "asking legitimate questions" because, after all, nobody was born knowing all this stuff. And, judging from your posts so far, you are correctly focussed on the "why" of magic, rather than falling into the trap of the "what's new" syndrome. I think you'll like it here. cheers, Peter Marucci showtimecol@aol.com |

Huw Collingbourne Loyal user Devon, UK 201 Posts |
Thanks for the welcome. I have to admit I've been lurking around a few magic places on the Net for a while trying to work out where the natives are friendly - I soon decided that this is a good place!
Fear not, folks I shall be pestering away on a regular basis. Thanks for your helpful comments, Peter. It's good to know I don't seem as much of a magical idiot as I feel! btw, Tora, how did you know about my coffee addiction? There must be more to this mentalism business than I'd realised .... best wishes Huw |

Hi Huw
As a newcomer myself I can confirm that this is the place to learn and enjoy. I've had a fantastic welcome and feel at home already. I'm in Taunton Somerset. What part of Devon are you lucky enough to live in ????

The nearest village (a couple of miles away) is Hartland, the nearest towns are Bideford (Devon) and Bude (Cornwall). A beautiful place if (as I do) you like the peace and quiet of the countryside. Not a very active magical community around here - but, my word, the local rabbit population is mightily impressed by my sleight of carrot! best wishes Huw |
