for about 1.5 hours plus 2 hours travel in total I would think

I think that is too much, plus 1.5 hours will be too long.

Sounds about right - aren't you in SW London?

I saw your msg the other day but my friend who has all the contacts in that field has just gone on holiday and is out of contact.

That sounds good about the show cd, maybe the price is because you are London

It's for 5yos

I think 50 mins is fine
I would obv rather pay £70 than £210

he sounds rather good
he is an adult magician who also does kids so maybe not too awful and patronsiing
he is american
he called me back from the states where he is on his hols which was impressive!

wow £200!!

We had IMHO the best one in this area and she cost £65 for an hour - show and games and balloon models (also does face painting but too many at party for that).

We are not in London tho (thank goodness, sorry)

Hatrick, thanks for your recommendation - the party was yesterday and Tony the Magician was great! More like a stand-up for 5yos than a magician really but they all adored him and he was very professional!

Hiya Guys,

Silly Scott is the entertainer you need, i cannot praise this guy enough. I have been to so many parties over the years with my son, and Silly Scott is the most professional entertainer i have ever seen. He has been entertaining at all my family and friends parties for the past 3years, and is such a nice guy aswell as being a fantastic entertainer. Just take a look at his website to see what i mean..

Pink80 is right, i booked Silly Scott about a month ago and have also seen him at many parties. He is very professional and keeps everyone at the party entertained for the whole show including the adults . I would fully recommend his magical parties to everyone, i hope this helps !!
