Jerry Sadowitz. I am not particularly a fan of his brand of comedy but do you know what? I’ve also never bought a ticket to one of his shows.

See how I can take responsibility for myself? I’m not impacted by his material this way.

You don’t go to a Jerry Sadowitz show and expect a Val Doonican experience. You’d be ripped off if you did.

He is also a universally respected sleight of hand magician. I’d love to see that so if I do go I’d expect the Jerry Sadowitz experience to be a part of that.

Cancelling his show impacted on people who booked flights and hotels to attend. Will the venue reimburse that? Not to mention the man’s income.

The right wring their hands over “cancel culture” which doesn’t exist but this? A *genuine* cancellation because people went to a Sadowitz show and got what they paid for.

It’s very easy to not go to a show, read a book, watch a television show. Easier than going and getting upset that you got what you paid for.

Well hello there, the pair of you who read this, neither of whom got here by design. What about ye? How’s it goin’?

It’s been a minute, hasn’t it? Things have been hectic personally and I’ve been physically and emotionally drained by certain events and continuing issues. I don’t wanna piss in yer cornflakes about it *but* to cheer my ginger ass up I bought a Mystery Box from https://magicshop.co.uk. Within its cardboard exterior I found a great many things (at least three times the value of what I Paid outright) this delightful little box introduced itself to me.

Gorgeous. I love the design and the cheeky wee gaff on one of the jokers.

As for feel? USPCC stock so, you know, great. USPCC set the benchmark.

As far as I am aware they aren’t marked.
