CNA - Channel News Asia

This morning I performed live on ‘Primetime Morning’ on Channel News Asia which, as I found out after the show, broadcasts to more than 20 Asian countries and territories. If I’d known this beforehand, I think my hands may have been a little wobbly, but ignorance is bliss, and the show was a lot of fun.

I had a good chat with the presenters, Suzanne and Dominic, and performed a couple of my favourite effects with them – a little prediction and some spoon bending.

Then a meeting later in the day with the people from Downtown East, a huge venue in Northern Singapore, where we’re hoping a good few hundred will come to see the big show on 10th January. If you’re in Singapore, you’re in for a real treat.

Busy Busy

It's looking like a busy month to come here in Singapore, and I'm enjoying it more than anywhere so far. The work keeps coming in, highlights include FOUR back-to-back shows on New Year's Eve - the most I've ever done in one day - and performances at the stunning Furama City Centre (shown here), and Downtown East in January. I'll also be on Channel News Asia next week, which should be a lot of fun, and I'll try to get a copy onto youtube so you can all catch it.

I can't recommend CouchSurfing enough to anyone who is a-travelling. Even if, like me, you're not planning to sleep on anyone's couch, there are always events going on, from parties and nights out to tours of the city, and it's always a good laugh. It's such a great way to find out what's happening and to make new friends, both locals and other passers-through, in an unfamiliar country.

I also had a nice wee chat with some guys from Red Dot Magic Magazine, you can read the interview here.

So things are shaping up very nicely here. I'm almost 1/3 through the Trip and things are getting better all the time.
