I just realised that I forgot to tell the not so Irish world about.....
.....the 3rd CLONAKILTY JUGGLING CONVENTION!:
Thursday 27th - Sunday 30th September.
-€20 (not including camping...but you can always just juggle for 72hours....sleep is overrated
)
-24 hour hall
-food available on site (so you should be able to juggle/spin for a solid 72 hours before having to leave )
-Darragh's supposed to be organising fancy German jugglers to come over - I've heard rumours of Marco Paoletti as well as super contact staffers Josh and Valerie...we'll have to see.
-fire show
-workshops
-sunday games
-Boggle juggling shop
-Camping (Desert House Camping) is available 5 mins walk away and in the past groups of jugglers have rented apartments between large groups of them to keep costs down - search google
Followed by after convention hottub and chill out and continued jugglification session
Anyone signing up for teaching a workshop? Any requests for workshops?
Hope to see ye there

You guys can always get the bus! its much cheaper on short notice than those plane things...That and they dont check your luggage all that much *Wink *Wink
Look up Euro Lines, coaches. 29 euro one way from victoria station to Dublin, then another 20 euro return from dublin to Cork by bus, and then just local bus fare from Cork to timaleague.
Hope that helps...
As for you Clare...Im sure we can organise a poly-Location workshop for ye : ) only problem is, youd have to be there in the first place, in order to be in a different place. Its a lot of theory, but should work.

Adian?
I will do two workshops.
The joy of Spinning and Turning.
and
The Joy of Hitting yourself in the Face.
or
(Beats and Turns)
(and)
(Contact, beginner to intermediate, horizontal if you want to be fancy about it).
Also I would like to point out the rule that means all guests from foreign countries have to do workshops. Especially if they are staff spinning
I will be also following on with my research that began at the EJC last year. 'How to stay awake at juggling conventions' will be a seminal work on the art of squeezing more juggling hours into day and night. If you have any suggestions please feel free to let me know
