I've not stopped trying to think of ways you could have pulled off some of the things you did, but you'll be pleased to know I havent really got anywhere at all ;) When you come back to Cardiff (you will come back at some point, won't you?) I would reccomend trying to get into the Millennium centre in the bay since the acoustics there are much better and the audiences will probably be bigger and better :) Hope to see you there! Meeting you after the show was like a dream come true, you're like a personal hero to me and I'd love to one day be able to do what you do :) Thanks for taking the time to sign things and take pictures and hug us (even if we did kind of ambush you as you left). Thanks for making my year! Good luck with the rest of the tour, not that you need it :) x p.s. don't worry about not being able to understand some of the audience, the Welsh accent is ridiculous :) Saw you in Cardiff on the 21st and it was bloody brilliant.

Even though I knew what was coming, everything was still as fun and mind-boggling as before. Certainly a much more enthusiastic audience than when I saw it in London. Loved the looks on my friends faces at all the tricks that just have such unexpected endings. Also my boyfriend said that he worked one thing out reasonably early on and sat there feeling smug until the point he realised that that was barely a scratch on the surface compared to the rest of it! Brilliant job! Was at the last night in Woking. 2nd time of seeing the show, came with a few friends that hadn’t seen it.

Hm, what if there is no mind? What will they read then? The sun gave me a great tan but also took care of my mind in such a way that I can't trigger it back anymore into its normal state. I'm sure I will sleep quite well tonight. I'm so easy going right now man ... mellow me .. so I think I will log off now .. and hang here for a little while till I lay down my head on my pillow .. somewhere in a bed, my bed. That tour of you is long Brown. And still so many places filled with people that haven't seen it yet, but would love to see the show. Life's not fair. Parrots that read minds?
