AWOL HoP Friends - where are you?

So PyroWill and I are sitting at the Spinning@ tent at the BJC (british juggling convention) discussing life, the universe and gingerness. We realised we have a lot of AWOL friends, from the 'old' days who we haven't heard of, know what is going on with them.

So this is a request to everyone, old, young, middle, ginger, blonde, tall or short... If you know of, or about any of the people below, or have any people you want to add to find out about, please post!!

Im hopefully meeting up with FRD for a drink this coming saturday! Will see what he is up to and tell him to get on here once in a bit.

Hope you had fun at BJC.

Man, I'm on here all the time. I just lurk and rarely post.

Met up with UCOF the other night for a pint or five. He hasn't been on here for ages apparently. But we had a good old reminisce about the golden days. Its a shame we've all stopped posting, but tbh, I think a lot of us have stopped spinning all together.

Also saw Pigeon towards the end of last year. Again, don't think she's been on HoP for fookin' ages.

But I like this thread. It is a good thread. Full of nostalgia and such.

Pay attention kids. Some of those names up there made HoP the kickass place it is today.

Kickass*

"generation of steel"

Strugz has a new job and just bought a house and he also has a little girl which I can imagine is taking up a bit of is time. (though most of this is about a year old I spoke to him just before Xmas but his phone answering skills are aweful)

Frodo I believe is working in Portsmouth

Pigeon - If that's clare she's also settled down in portsmouth with a new chap.

I'm sure I saw Wild Child at Southern Lights last year but could be mistaken.

That is my round up of the one's I can help with

I was thinking about Konsti the other day! I was thinking about how drunk we got in Vienna Lost touch with him after that though.

Been a longtime since I've logged on here! Hi guys

I still speak to WildChild (very) occasionally. Her and Roman (TrippyHippy) both live (seperately) in Cheshire as does Pete. I assume a selection of them will be at Play.

I've barely seen anyone for ages - Uni and being self employed have destroyed my ability to do anything. I'm sure half the people I know from HoP I met it forests at night and that doesn't really happen any more unfortunately :-(

I intend to gather all the Manc spinners together and drag them to Play though. I believe that there's still a chance that Simta and Aimee will be coming up from Hastings with their little'un Theo (he's awesome!).

I'm hoping to catch up with a LOT of people that weekend. There's loads of people I've not seen for years who have all been very much missed.

Has anyone got any idea what happened to the anglian raver that was known as Alien Oddity (Alan?) in his latter years on HoP?

feel kinda sad i was left off this list lmao

I'm pretty surprised I made it.

well look at your location dude

I'm here!

Just as a disclaimer - The list was people who I hadn't, nor PyroWill heared from or about for a while...

Anyone left off doesn't mean we don't care, it means we either see you on facebook, or through other friends, or such like...

Keep the info coming though!

I still have photos of that gorgeous flower and fond memories of the museum fun-time!!

I'm at an airport bar waiting for a flight to Ireland

Oh, you weren't asking about me, were you? Cos you saw me 2 weeks ago...

If we can arrange a lift!! As much we miss everyone we have no intention what so ever of training it all the way up there with a toddler and a canvas tent!!
I've posted in the play thread too but anybody reading this who has a van big enough for 3 of us (proper seat+belt needed for the boys carseat), or is interested in splitting the cost of a minibus from Sussex then please get in touch!!

Trying not to get too excited as travel is obviously still pending but I am so looking forward to seeing people!

I just checked... been a long long time since i've been here. last post was 2007

need to find more people in south florida, USA. I won't see Riz this spring since Maja canceled her Spirit of the Tribes Show for this year (a bellydance show here)

I do know that Flame Boy moved to London a couple of years ago and is rowing for Moseley. I haven't spoken to him in a while, although I do have him as a facebook friend and can get in touch with him if you want?
