Todays Reading Chronicle features a article on one of our members, Robert Bone. The article talks about Roberts recent membership of The Magic Circle: Robert Bone, was accepted into the prestigious Magic Circle after a gruelling interview and audition process. He said: “I’m really pleased to be accepted into the world famous Magic Circle. I chose a variety of effects to perform to demonstrate a wide range of skills and also ensured that there was a good amount of fun involved too. The Circle, based in a prestigious headquarters in central London complete with its own theatre, library and museum, was formed in 1905 and now has around 1,500 members.
The Article also mentioned The Home Counties Magical Society, and if you have the actual paper, you'll see a picture of Robert on the front cover!! The full article can be viewed online at http://www.readingchronicle.co.uk/articles/1/3310 |

 Many thanks to all the members of the Home Counties Magic Society for their support through my application process to join the Magic Circle.
I am pleased to announce that last night I received a phone call informing me that I had passed the audition (all three judges passed me on all the necessary criteria) and I am now a full member of the Magic Circle. |

Brian Dodridge's "Bill the Pill" Close-Up effect shown to members at a recent meeting is featured in the current edition of the above monthly publication. I was very pleased to see this effect when I started my browse through the magazine this morning (27 May '08). Members lucky enough to have seen this "brainchild" of Brian's will recall how well it was received when he demonstrated, and explained the effect at a recent meeting. Well done Brian. I am sure all members will have their fingers well crossed for a successful outcome for this effect in the Cecil Lyle Award Competition (best effect submitted to The Magic Circular Magazine). |

 Richard Young is one of our younger members, and at only 23, he's already made a name for himself in the world of Magic.
In 1998 when he was only 14, Richard won the 'Young Magicians Close Up Magic Competition' run by The Magic Circles Young Magicians Club. The more impressive part was that Richard had no professional tutoring before winning the competition. HCMS Member Bob Swadling took Richard under his wing, and has tutored Richard ever since. Richard appears on the front cover and feature article inside todays edition of 'In Business', a supplement of The Oxford Times. Chris Hogan's article talks about Richards magic and the way he markets himself and his website. |
