” At our September meeting we met Gerry Walker from Abergavenny who described himself as magician and public speaker and he was certainly good at both, keeping us laughing and amazed at the same time. While turning a lottery ticket into £50 he explained he started out as a primary teacher and part time magician before giving up teaching to go full time.
He showed us “Jackpot Coins” the trick that fooled Einstein so ou chances of solving that one were nil. He borrowed a £20 note from our president and told her she would only get it back if it matched to one in in his wallet. She dithered over several cards before choosing one and was amazed and relieved to find it was the very one. Fred, the Invisible Flea came out of his box to help with an hilarious Indian RopeTrick. Gerry demonstrated the Finger guillotine on his own finger as no-one rushed to volunteer.
Gerry interspersed his tricks with lots of amusing anecdotes about himself and famous magicians including tricks that went wrong, sometimes with deadly consequences. Finally he showed us how one trick was done but if I revealed it here I sure he would have to kill me.”

The last meeting of Abergavenny Probus featured the local entertainer Gerry Walker. What a treat! his talk about his life as a magician and public speaker fascinated members they were, not only entertained by his light hearted talk, but he brought it to life with magic, which baffled everyone.Indeed one member, who himself is something of a magician , was impressed with the high quality of Gerry`s tricks. His insights into life as a magician held everybody`s attention and all too soon had to be stopped in full flow- in order to allow members time for the bar !
