Hey Jack! You haven’t blogged in ages. 

What’s that all about?

You know. General reasons. The usual. Stuff. That kind of thing.

Have you lost your mojo Jack?

Have you run out of interesting things to share with the world? 

Have you forgotten your website admin password?

Have all your fingers got stuck together like a massive mitten and you can’t type anymore?

No. None of those. Fingers all good. Card tricks would be well and truly scuppered if I were “Jonny mitten fingers”

Have you given up on blogging. 

Let yourself go. 

Abandoned your three or four regular readers.

Nope. Not that either. 

Maybe you’re lying low, having pulled off an elaborate casino heist.

Again, no. Well, not yet anyway.

Or is it that given the current climate of…

War in Europe, social media misinformation, conspiracy theories, corrupt politicians, dirty money, shady contracts, blatant liars, tax avoiders, Russian bots, peers, oligarchs, refugee crises, hostile environments, shocking inequality, sovereignty, absent compassion, AWOL dignity, climate change denial, anti vaxxers, anti maskers, flat earthers, Q, LePen, Jan 6th, cost of living emergency, food banks, partygate, and a still spiralling pandemic…

That banging on about charging an arm and a leg to go to parties and do tricks just seems a little, well…

…trivial?

Will you give it a rest!? I’ll get back to blogging in my own good time. 

I just need to unstick my fingers first…
