Hi everyone!

Just joined this fabulous message board so I thought I'd say Hi. My name's Jon, I'm studying Computer Systems Enngeering @ Bristol Uni (In the UK). I took up Poi at the beginning of the summer and I've been addicted ever since. I've built a few sets and I'm now working on some spiffy LED versions (tired of stinking of paraffin all the time!)...

I've been reading HoP for a month or two - those vids of the basic moves are awesome - I've learnt a lot of what I know from them!

Anyway, just thought I'd say hi smile

I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.

What does F5 do?? confused

Hello! My intro post had about 7 replies on it! Hehe, compared to these popular people

Incase you haven't seen it, (just because I didn't for 3 months) there is a chat room! At the top, IRC connection. I've recently become semi addicted to it
