I had a great morning a couple of days ago being a part of a wedding proposal in Potters Fields next to Tower Bridge!
It really was like something from a Richard Curtis RomCom - All we needed was Hugh Grant!
The couple, Bar and Idan were visiting from Israel and I was booked by the events planner to pose as a street scammer pretending to be trying to con passers by out of their cash with a cups and balls routine. The plan was the couple would be passing by and I would lure them into a spot of gambling. The young man would bet twice and loose and then ask the young lady to try and see if her luck was any better and she would pick the cup with a ring box containing a diamond engagement ring! And it worked! She said yes and the whole thing worked like clockwork! Although rather cold the rain - which along with sleet - had been forecast held off and we even had time for a few magic tricks after!
