The Wessex Magical Association Dinner 2008

The WMA annual dinner and cabaret was, once again, a wonderful evening. Held on Friday 3rd October 2008 at the Heathlands Hotel in Bournemouth, the cabaret featured Mark Worgan (who made us all laugh with his comedy & magic) and Amethyst (who made us gasp at their illusions).

Many of the club members made the evening truly enjoyable by providing close-up magic at the tables during the evening.
