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.

will there still be the dreaded drips???
cause if so, can you get that on film? frodo screaming "drips! drips!" really needs to go on the next video
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.

well im am sorry to disapoint but the drips should be gone soon.... after spending the whole of the winter wondering how to stop the drips, i realised that i had a good old roll of "Gaffer " tape in the back...
this seems to have solved the problem, although im quite unsure as it hasnt rained yet....so more white stuff could be produced by my baby....
i need everyones help... i want to name my car, as i feel its both rude to point, and not name it..... so.. please help me and put forward sensible suggestions, and we will pick the winner in kent......
winner wins a free trip, in the drip machine, and for a bonus we might even go through mcdonalds drive through backwards and launch verbal abuse at the staff. and see if they really are loving it?!
frodo out!!

i had a friend who named his car "the womb", the running explanation being "because its all soft and warm and safe inside..." the womb died a few years ago so its time the name was passed on to another fine specimen of a rustbucket/heap of junk/car*
p.s. another (max power reading) friend called his "the beast" no? didnt think so...

all i am saying is that if bams saw frodos car and knew it was named after her, she may cry, and then kill him!
bams is fine, sweet and lovable, and snugglbe, fordos car is non of the above, and you may get a rash from it!
frodo i love you man, but your car is class funny!
"erm what does this part do, we ripped it off and smashed it!"

ah, another language snafu. i forgot banger was sausage.
ok, for the UK folks. to "bang" someone (american slang) is to (putting it lightly) have sex with them.
it's so not as funny when i have to explain it.
