Melbourne, sunday twirling.

sick of explaining where the gardens are, i got a map
just look for the big palm trees, they're kinda difficult to miss.

about this sunday, i couldnt find a map that said where palm lawn is. i THINK that we could be fine, but i have no idea. any idea anyone.

--------------------
could you be loved, and be loved

It's good 2 c so many new people comin on sunday i've gone 2 a couple now and they are becoming really good if ur a newbie i suggest u go sunday not wednesday cause the people on sunday are all about helpin u learn and not so much showing off

SO LOST.
I'm hoping pineapple pete will be nice and take me there?
Unless hes teaching, maybe he could meet me at flinders st station then? Hope so

Yeah we will be fine Moomba never crosses over into the gardens where we are. Well the actual event dosent but the people do.

It is too dangerous to have the event going over the major road cause they would either need to put in a temp set of traffic light or block that road for the weekend. And neither are good options. So we dont have to worry about the Palm Gardens Cinema. That is getting held on the lawn on the east side of the skate park.

So come all to a great night of twirling and if we are lucky we migth get a good crowd. MIght even be big enough for us to start putting a hat down for passers by.


Also i just read that they are having circus workshops on during the day. So how bout a few of us go down and have a play with that too. Start by pertending not to know anything. And then start picking up the skills really easily till your better than the teachers there. It coudl be a lot of fun.

im there, where can i meet ya pete.

Hey dobz stop acting like ur all cool!! saying its great to see new faces when u r a new face you've been there twice!!!

Let him go :P

Yer i've been there twice and now more and more ppl are comin thats wat i was saying



side note...never introduce ur X 2 fire spinning she will stalk u there on sundays!

erm how's the headcount last sunday guys? i feel the need to fwirl on the sabbath...

Bender come back havent twirled with you since Dell-Dints party down in Darrabin.

So you should come down and have a play. Last week there were about 15 people maybe more. Most twirling at some point.

Also how was Triptamine? Was suspose to twirl up at it but seeing most of work was up there running it i had to stay back.

Stalking? I believe you invited me thank you very much- Each of the two times!

hello, it was great to finally get a twirl, I hadnt twirled in like a year, i came down two weeks ago and said a a few hellos. Cant wait to come this sunday night..... were the mozzies bad last week? or did they only come out the week before? Should be a quite a crowd this weekend. Anyways look forward to remeeting everyone, thanks for helping me cure my stick Pete, am bringing lots of fuel this week so should be good. by the way does anyone know if shellite is available in bottles like kero is?

Yes Shellite is available like kero.I don't know if it's available in the big 4lt bottles, but is definitley in 1lt bottles.

I too shall be joining in the fwirl this Sunday, Even though I was supposed to be at Port Fairy for the weekend.

Does anyone know whether Hogan will be there this weekend? I wanted to do some more devilsticking with him.

So just for confirmation -Sunday twirling will be in usual spot ,yes?
no?maybe?
Aah, i'll find yaz.

Yes, the usual spot.
It should be big this weekend!!
This is your last chance for some summery weather. (30degrees?)
There should also be a lot of people around. Crowd that is. I'm not so sure about putting a hat down. But that's just me. ***pete your fine to do it if you so wish.
I bought some batteries so there's music. But... feel free to bring your drums.
The devil stick guys name is actually Holger. He, He, but Hogan sounds amusing.

ok, i've plucked up the courage to come for a twirl this sunday, so if you see a girl looking socially inept, give her a smile (even if it isn't me, it's just a generally nice thing to do!)

i know i've got no reason to, but i'm feeling very nervous, so please don't bite. see you tomorrow

I'll be nervous too, Myco, so if you see two sicially inept girls say hi! I'll be the one wearing american camo or a pink tartan skirt:P
As myco said:
Dont bite....too hard

Hi Myco and Sakura_moon,

There is no need to feel nervous, we are all very friendly
If you see a tall thin guy playing with poi, that is probably me, come up and say hi.

Alex

I'll be on my way down tonight. But wont be getting there till 8:00 or later. But should have my gear with me and a few liters of firewater people can use. Thats if the didnt use it all up after i crashed last night.

hi guys had an awesome night, found the shellite in bottles but i found out it burns a quite a hot flame compared to kero, a little too warm for me. Wont be there this sunday but should hopefully be there next sunday. Thanks for the help on learning the five beat weave!! woo hoo. And cant wait to bring my three sectional next time to see if anyone can show me how to use it heehee. Cheers.

arg! ! !
a rope darting guy and a three section staffist is coming this weekend, and i cant come
im tryin to learn it, got my self a foamy one, hurts less, but legalities on them are a bit wonky.
tryin my best to come, my project for this weekend is to make some stilts, so i may or may not have some bandages.
cheers, pete

p.s. try doing this move followed by dropping to ur knees and if u can onto ur back, while continuing that move. its a personal fave of mine, and looks mad as. takes a bit to get going well though. good luck.

cheers again, pete

Still haven't recieved my fire meteor yet. It should be here any day soon. I want a little practice with it first before lighting up anyway. Sorry to dissapoint.
I will still bring my normal one. Once again, anyone game is welcome to try it.

a guy i know offered to make me the hand grip if i want some meteor

Hand grip for a meteor? Please explain.
Got it in the mail yesterday, but I was working so I couldn't pick it up. Ah well, next week. Easter weekend? Plan anything festive?

Hey all, daylight savings finishes on the 27/3 (Sunday morning). I'll talk to everyone on Sunday night, but do people want to move back to the 5/5:30 pm meet time like it was at the start.
Do we want to keep the whole meeting while it's still light thing that I love so much. (Hmm not much bias there). Or meet while it's dark?

i likes the daytime bit, thing, befor fire. learn moves, SEE your meteor before it hits me , dito with double staffs, my face is still sore from where i got a good smakin in the face with naths metal staff.
is anyone comin on sunday, dont wana arrive and have no one turn up.
look forward to seein your meteor, and to see someone else with a three sectional. i better practice.
got the btb forward 3 beat weave, so im rather proud,
and hope to see all very very soon.
bender, where were you, you didnt twirl on the sabath.
cheers, pete
