Card Capers - Worthing, Sussex. Sunday April 17th 2011

So as not to clash with the Bristol Day Of Magic, Wothing’s Card Capers is now in April. Sunday 17th April. It also is mid-April to avoid Easter, then the early May bank holiday and - aside from the Bristol Day of Magic - the FA Cup Final weekend! So, April 17th should suit more people!

See www.paulgordon.net/cardcapers.html for details, reviews and booking info. Book SOON to avoid missing out. I know it’s nearly a year away, but this year’s Card Capers sold out within weeks of going on sale!

Be there or be square! It’s a jam=packed day of fun & doable card magic a la Paul Gordon

Plus, to follow - dates in Manchester & Glasgow…we hope!
