As the mess of stories concerning the last weekend slowly surface, it becomes increasingly clear that the central theme of these weekends is not actually spinning whatsoever; rather it is sex. Maybe I'm putting that too baldly, but the heady mess of tension that seems to have been running like an undercurrent through the course of the last weekend (which completely passed me by at the time) must surely have been its defining focus.
Therefore it is only right that the next weekend should be set over Valentine's day. If the last one was sordid and confused... let's see what new heights we can achieve with this one. Forget Jennifer Steele - I'm going to book a priest for the duration, and see what happens...
For those of you who didn't make the last weekend, but have maybe seen the jelly wrestling video... I'm not being entirely serious. Though we may never know quite how many clandestine pairings took place during those brief hours of darkness... we did also do quite a lot of spinning. Essentially, the format for the weekend is this - loads of spinners turn up during the course of the week, with the majority arriving on Friday (that'll be Friday the 13th - oh dear!), and then stay for the weekend. We go and spin in the park nearby, or head up to the sports hall to spin indoors to music (with loads of toys - balance bars, crash mats and trampolines!). Apart from that, there are missions, baked goods, laptops, videos, vegetarian food and the opportunity to get to know a whole load of the other HOPers. And 'get to know' can be as euphamistic as you like...
As per usual, I'll post more details nearer the time... blah di blah, see the other threads for info if you want it now. The major change this time is that I will be asking everyone for a fiver - this will go to buying all the paraffin and renting the sports hall and swimming pool, and if there's any spare it's earmarked for the Get Pounce To Kent Fund, on which we're still about £120 short.
Quite how we're going to beat the jelly wrestling is a bit of a mystery, however. We need some madcap scheme, preferably one both dangerous and illegal, so if you have any suggestions please post them below.
And come down for the weekend, all of you. It'll be a riot.

Jeez, it begins already...
I was actually thinking of inviting the features editor for Bizarre magazine down for one of the nights, both as part of my (slow going) application to work there, and as I think the spinning is something they'd enjoy. A bit of bondage would be right up their alley... and that wasn't supposed to be a euphamism.
And, Mr F.Neuron, if you will run off to your swanky hotels and not dare to stay here for the passage of night... well how can you hold me responsible for what does (or doesn't) occur? Not that I'd want you to hold me responsible for providing you with sex, whatever the situation.
How come this thread has been so quickly, and so conclusively, turned away from all mention of spinning? I suppose I've only got myself to blame. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury (got to practice that line!), this is a SPINNING WEEKEND! For SPINNERS! To SPIN! I know that it sounds very like a swingers' weekend, but do not be deceived by us trying to use sex to sell - it's all just clever marketing.

Doh! I'm still gonna be away that weekend!
But i get back (hopefully) on the monday to heathrow, so joe if its ok i may pop over for the monday night for a spin.
Also, can i just say, i've had the most random night...
I've been to a local juggling group, and i met a wicked guy who does loads of fire stuff.
This guy is in his 60s, and does everything- poi, staff, breathing, eating, juggling, and loads of other random things. He does various fire shows around the country. He was ace, and his outlook on life was inspiring!

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.

Joe - This thread's all good fun and frothy banter but I can see how it might discourage people who are genuinely interested in spinning poi, meeting others to learn and share ideas from attending. It would be a shame if that happened.

It'd be a shame if anyone was discouraged from bringing their portable dungeon if they thought they had to spin poi, but yea, i see what you mean. We're all fluffy really, forget what you saw in the videos.

I'm with DJ Watt on this....(sorry to say this guys)
But I can assure you all that I went to the first Kent gathering and had a whole load of spinning fun. The guys and girls arrange for a great spinning space (including a wet weather option
)
Encouragement and support is given with any spinny toy you pick up.
Ohh and the the master of the house makes you eat..and eat...and eat till you feel to fat to spin in the end
Joe keep up the geat hospitality you showed when I was last down.

I'm a woman. We don't say what we want, but we reserve the right to be pissed off if we don't get it. That's what makes us so fascinating and not just a LITTLE bit scary.

if anyones got a link to a "how to get there" post, that would be handy
anyway, i'm off to Brixton to annoy some jugglers, so i'm going now byebye

Flid, you're awful!
here is a map-linky-thing for simian (if it works! )
Nearest train station is Bat & Ball (Fast train from Waterloo to Sevenoaks then change for 1 stop, or straight to Bat & Ball from Victoria)
Um, the house number and stuff is knocking about somewhere but I can't find it. However, Joe's phone number will also be reaching you in PM (Since he posted it in an open forum I'm sure he won't mind me giving it to you)
Please come and play! They're not really scary!
