yep david bowie falls into my very wide and varied music likes. its also been one of my nick-names for years! and on your back is a great place to be ;-)
cheers! in vietnam at the moment. not much fire action going on... but it's not stopping us making making our own fun whenever we can! although it took a couple of days to find out the word for parrafin in vietnamese. i was getting SERIOUSLY funny looks what with my pigeon vietnamese and arms waving all over the place. people sending me from shop to shop thinking i meant everything light bulbs to petrol! got it eventually tho!
off trekking in vietnamese/chinese border in a day or 2 so reckon will bring the fire poi and enteretain the hill tribes (any excuse!).

the girlfriend lives in Kilbarrack mate sometimes a few of hit go to st annes on a saturday,ill let you know the next time
ahhh...yeah cool tel me if are....ive just figured out how to juggle five balls i had to bring my poi back tho coz they were brokn....stupid manufacturers..... my friend told me a way to make really good ones though so im gona try that.
they were glow poi but i dont know the make,it wasnt exactly the highest class shop though...the part where the batteries went in was broken on both balls.just a bad product!yeh thats exctly hat i started with but i wasnt sure how to hold them so i put it through my midle and ring finger and into my hand....but my fingers just got raw after a while.how is to im suposed to hold them??
you could hold them in your fist and however your want, ideally between your fingers but its all up2u. what type of socks did ya have? best idea is get into pennys and get a set of over the knee socks and stick a juggling ball in each and you get a temp set...
btw, if the ongoings in Irish juggling and circus acts you can have a look at http://www.emeraldcircus.com - cya there
Just to let you all know, in case you haven't seen the stickers starting to pop up all over the place there is going to be the 1st ever proper anti-prohibition march on 6TH MAY (jay-day!!!) starting at 2 p.m from Parnell Sq east...
It will be really worth it to go to big up the numbers and get everybody you know who might be interested to come too and lets have a good party and peaceful civil disobedience protest!
Take care everybody, hope to see you all there or after my smelly exams

Great!!!!!!!
Well i've never met any of you, so if you see me on my own with some non-spinny people, please please please come over and say hi, as i think it would be great to meet some HoP heads.
And i shall also be jumping at any1 that is spinning, so dont be too freaked out if i seem really excited to actually see other people spinning, in the flesh.
Well happy!! This festival is gonna be sooo much fun. !!
Do you think i would get away with bringin ma fire poi with mi?
Never been inside Lough Cutra castle, passed it by many hundreds of times and always been fascinated. Its 5 to 10 miles South of gort. The opening scene of this video is filmed at the entrance.

I'm sure you've all heard about the site being found at Tara and road work stopping, I've spoken to the Tara Protesters but they're not sure what's happening yet, but 1st of June is still going ahead. I've going up to visit them on Monday so I'll keep you all posted anyway.
Hugs, Mairead.

I'll be Uberparising also nice one Lisa I thought I was going to be the only Irishy person there....phew close one. I'm gonna chill out in Paris until the following Thursday and continue the spinipulation madness, then return hopefully with perfect timing for Galway Juggling Convention.
