Well, this is my 2000th HoP post, so thought I'd might as well do an intro thread
Now, let's see:
Name: Paul
Age: 25 (at the moment)
From: Bookham, near Guildford
Toys: Poi, Staff & Contact Juggling (mostly)
Pink preference
: I like it
Significant Others: Mrs Durbs
Well, I spin with all the other Guildford lot, also am part of Burnt Toast (www.burnttoast.co.uk), can occasionally be seen at Spitz too...
Beer anyone?

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

Hi sir! Was great to meet you and Linda at Moonfest! Its always nice to meet another hopper, and especially so when they're from the land of permanently drippy clouds.
Was watching you play with that acrylic from the shadows too, and it was mesmerising.
.. I've decided to spend Sunday writing a script so that come Monday, I'll be able to convince you that Brisbane's where you and the lady need to settle. Nothing to do with wanting to glean cj knowledge from you or anything ..
Catch up soon!

Empty your mind. Be formless, Shapeless, like Water.
Put Water into a cup, it becomes the cup, put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, put water into a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Water can flow, or it can Crash.

Crossing fingers and toes you get plenty of cake. Like I'd tell anyone- can't not have cake on your birthday.
Take it easy sir!
