The Sunday Sessions - Spinny, Juggly, practise night, Guildford

Well, in addition to Happy Thursdays there is now going to be a new weekly meeting in Guildford.

Every Sunday, from 2 - 6pm in the Stoke Pub back room.

Happy Thursdays are still going to run and will be the "fire night" or, if it's raining, the "pub night"
The Sunday Sessions are more practise orientated- as it's difficult to practise and impossible to teach/learn in the dark and not particularly fun in the rain
The plan is to have fairly regular workshops teaching everything from the basics to the not-so-basics - so any volunteer teachers, step forward

We're looking for as much variety as possible inside, hopefully will get some jugglers (ewwwww ), devil-stickers, diaboloists etc. down.

Entrance fee is £3 which covers renting the back-room.

The first one will be Sunday, November the 7th and then hopefully it will be every week. At the moment, I'm thinking this might just be for the Autumn-Winter period, but if it's popular (and the pub are fine with it) it could stay

Hope to see some of you there

*Bump*

Just to say - it's confirmed, this Sunday 7th November will be the first one

you southerners always have to keep reminding me why i shouldnt be up north!

Yep

That'll learn you

If you think its bad up north come to Wales! I'm seriously thinking of moving back to Cambridge!!

hmm well im going to create my own thursday and sunday spin :P...with flapjacks! i dont need you southerners! except lex for her culinary skills

May try and make this...although my bank account wouldn't like it.

I haven't spun with you guilfordy lot for ages! (Except for the big meets you guys go to)

Finally - a Guildford spin on a day I'm available

Will come up as soon as possible

Coolio

Apparently the pizzas are very good at the pub too

Pizza

****jumps in car 5 days early to ensure he gets a slice****

Right - so all down the pub for pizza at 5, then a bloated juggle at 6

I'll try to make it, but don't blame me if I'm lazy and can't be bothered !
I'll probably alternate between thursdays and sundays for the next few weeks, until it finally becomes too cold to be outside. Be good to get some practice in when I can actually see what I'm doing. Might end up hitting myself in the head less. Maybe .

How high is the ceiling?

J

Er - don't know High enough?

But probably not high enough for long staff throwing or 9-club juggling...

that's pretty high. i'll be down for some juggling over crimbo then...

lol

and a true juggler will go into a room, look round, and do the check for height, breakability, space to move and such, and then juggle never mind what the situation is

Yeah, but as a contact juggler - I look for a floor that isn't concrete and is smooth enough to glide on

ill be there with bells on ........ yes bells they are the new black. pink ill even remember to bring your poi .......... promise how can you not trust a face like that

james would be cool to catch you on this side of the world, i have some notsorubbishasthelasttimeisawyoucontacttricksnow so dont be lazy

durbs, i think you should buy a set of my fie staffs, they are much in demand, i sold two at sheff that i didnt even have to towt for, ppl just asked for a mech staff!

Nah - faaaaaaar too heavy
I'm a light staff fan, and want 3-piece - so Strugzy is making me some of his which are lovely.

But thanks for the offer

dont butter your bread before you have goosed a chicken, or your omlet will taste of rubber!

Ah, but Strugz has already started on mine (I hope) plus I get free delivery - and they're lovely
