Spidermanses Facepaint

The queue for the face painting and the balloon models was massive all day. It was approaching 5pm and the last few were up next.

Up steps a 3 year old boy to the face painter "Have...have...have you any Spidermanses (pronounced Spiderman-zes) left?"

And as quick as a oompah the face painter looked into her red paint dish and replied "Ohhh there is only one left".

Another happy customer.

That Big R

Portmarnock on a Friday afternoon and a kinda toughie party - thousands of 8 year old boys......but I had them under control.

One bespectacled youngster insisted he knew how each magic trick worked. So I let him to proceed to tell us all how the tricks worked. I could see his mind ticking over as he explained the process. Full marks for effort but he was wrong each time, because magic is..................well magic :)

During balloon time he wanted a few unmade blown up balloons so that he could make things. Again, in fairness he did a great job! I was impressed so I told him that I knew that he would be an engineer when he grows up.

"An engineer! My dads an engineer!" he said while walking away. "Well, he was an engineer, he drives a taxi now!"

Oh well.

The Power of Childrens TV

I was in Tobercurry Co. Sligo around the time of the big snow - no travel problems for your intrepid entertainer. The party was going well and the magic show was over so it was balloon time during the meal!

A 9 year old boy dropped a bit of his pizza on the floor, so I asked him "Why did you drop the pizza?". And as quick as a gnat he replied,

"Do you want you want to know why Ciaran dropped the pizza, well tune back in after the break!"

Huh!
