‘How did he do that?’
Douglas Maddy astounded MHWI members with his magic tricks at the annual meeting last night leaving them saying, ‘ How did he do that?’
Whether it was swallowing a balloon, or cutting or joining lengths of rope, we couldn’t work how it was done. Douglas did explain one trick though when Patsy Tracey helped him with his toilet paper trick. Apparently it all depends on getting someone to focus on one thing, taking their attention away from what is actually happening elsewhere around them.
While this was taking place, members shared nibbles and drinks with others on their tables. Well done, Douglas: a fun end to an eventful annual meeting.
