Grrrrrrr, I am not Dom so I read below the line I am so jealous...

It was a day for screaming at inanimate objects.

What this calls for is a special mix of psychology and extreme violence...

I am with Rozi in the jealousy club. Should we start a separate thread for juggling convention jealousy club? I'm sure Dom will join! Lol Thistlefirepixie

Are we nearly there yet?

Posted: 18th Aug 2002
Yes, Dom, it really was horrible. No bounciness whatsoever. All the performers were shit and the weather was horrific. By the way, I'm a horrible liar.

I had a great time. Perfect way to end my time in Europe. Was so happy to have met Orange - thanks for putting me up in your tent, sweetie.

As always, it was lovely to see Cassandra, NYC, Glass, and Knoxious Dave. Excellent performance by Dave and Demetri (sorry if I didn't spell that right).

Glass, if I'm there next year, I WILL hold you to doing illegal poi moves with me wearing nothing but juggling toys to the tune of "You Sexy Thing" by Hot Chocolate at the Renegade show.

my sunburned shoulders are tenderised

but oooooh what an amazingly scrumptious whirlpool shake of thoughts moves idea's and fluffy people swirl smilingly around my closed eyes

i think i felt really priveliged to be a part of it all what with the constant missions and breaks for nutella (ta cassandra)
you are truly an amazing energy in our shared universe - i send hugs to your smily eyes

kali's snuggle sleeps when i made it back to the tent before E'tai rose :} -no comments please

'NYC' you precision machine of spin so many smiles sent to you and 'Kali' for your journeying to include the E.J.C was lovely to meet up with you -maybe over your side next time for burningman-we could go our 1'st time together?

'Glass' - can't smile broadly enough for our dancing -woowoo swoop - look a pole lets run around them all !!!
shame your bar360 got scuppered :}

'Dave' & 'Dimitri' you too rock rolls around clocks to german boof-boof time
'BamBam' you never said you were seeing 'Dave'
- he likes you - he was smiling broadly when he had the pleasure of bringing me upto-date :}
hope to ribs are getting better and the show went well :}
bench dancing with 'Doug' was a goodie :}
i'm still laughing from when Doug tried to get the guy out of his line of sight -then he went on stage :}

the amazing 'Anya' you'd better keep a look-out as i'll be hovering over your over-locker 1 day nice fire fingers miss :}
even the black fingers danced too

'Tilasmy' of the wild moves - how come girls styles captivate my eyes more?

a very smily fellow bounce poi'er 'Sheli' from Israel too- gotta send a huge hug and thank for the lovely 10hour chat my final morning
(its not often you meet another bounce-poi-person)

'rumpolstiltskin' doing a cricket game versus the whole crowd - haha

local talent in the shapes of 'Ying' & 'Gordon' -both of the twinkly eyed squad
nice btb moves

'Glass' again a mention from your illegal moves session - you are a sod and i mean it only in an awed-of-your-energies way - was so nice to see you so happy - and not in alone-ness too i'll fair wager hugs to 'Daphna'

'Lee' - will you ever see this?
you make me laugh so much - ta for being you
you gonna show me how to ski- without taking the piste ?
p.s. i think i remembered a move i forgot to show you !!! you'll have to wait another year
you fast learner you
was so good to see your tired triumphant face after your marathon seshion with the Home-Of-Poi poi - big aren't they !!!

'Chris' and 'Betty' for the happy pre-meal and practice in 'Doms' mirror lined ballet room with 4 u.v. strip lights mmmm yesyesyes
-before we drove across europe
for your cup of tea tasting coffee's always smiles and Betty managing to increase her juggles during the convention from 4 to 7 - hence making herself a confirmed Juggler
welcome aboard 'Betty'

'Deniz' (for being the open warm person you are- making me grin so) and 'Eva' for a lovely trip back too
stealing and passing on the ship was so funny
-we sway wi' the ocean 1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,1,1,1,2,1,2,3,1,2,3. stop

you guys are too lucky.. I hope you all know that.

Posted: 20th Aug 2002
Did we all just injure our feet in some way or another? It's like some weird hidden cost to attending the EJC.

Orange, you snuggle divinely. How's your toe?

Cassandra and NYC, sorry I missed you guys at the train station. Time just flew by and next thing I knew, it was about 1:30. Didn't get to the station until 2.

Glass, I already started practicing, but I think I need you to make me some kind of instructional video. Hope your foot feels better.

Big hugs to you all.

Kali, you ball of fluffy hugs and bonuce, see you again soon, on another round the world trip. I'm trying to do a video, but I got a case of the limps.

Four Four One?

I'm sadly back in Gotham City once again... but if I ever have to be trapped in a putrid flooded mud bog again, I'd want it to be with you guys.

Thanks for letting me steal all the tricks I was compitent enough to steal... but mostly thanks for all the fun.

I must say it's much more fun to read this post visualizing everyones smile and with a firm memory of everone's accent. Except for mine because I don't have one.

Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.
