Well, howdy folks!!
Thought I'd just say Hi to you all and introduce myself... as you do....
My name's Ed.
Time to re-do this intro page, methinks...
Well. I'm now Older than my Teeth, but not quite as old as my Fingernails... also known as 23.
I have many interests. I have OCCJD (Obsessive, Compulsive Contact Juggling Disorder
) I spin poi, Attempt a bit of Staff, I devilstick... I've recently discovered the Joy of Urban Dance, and am trying to incorporate it into my Contact Juggling... Illusion is Great! I like straight lines. I like robotics. I like isolation, and I Love with a capital 'L' Hugs!! I love to be silly and play, after all, that's what Life is all about. I love to learn and experience new things, and am constantly Striving to improve my spinning/manipulation. I love to use '...' way too much... 
My Taste in Music is quite extensive... I like pretty much everything, from Metal to Hip Hop, Psytrance to Blues. My favourite at the moment is chilled out electronic music, anything with a funky beat to dance to. Can't really pick out a specific band or group, as I like too many of them...
As for film interests, I like things that make me scared. ANd things that make me laugh... and especially films that make you lean your head to one side, whilst doing this:
and saying Huh? to yourself for the first hour or so, and then suddenly Click! it all makes sense.I love to drink lots of tea, not really a coffee person, but now and again is cool. I challenge you to make Coffee to my Specifications!!
As for the Damn Marmite, Vegemite, Nutella question... They're all OK I wouldn't go so far as to favour one... I believe in equal opportunity and all that... However, none come close to a cup of Chai with a double Brandy in it...
I can be found in many places, Mainly in Guildford during Academic Holidays, At in Hull during term times, For I am in my second year of studying Spanish at Uniservity. I have recently found I have a penchant for hanging out with some weird, juggly, spinny people in Hastings, and can now and again be found there for a week or two of silliness and spinning...
So yeah, That's what I do. I'm also Sweet and Innocent.

M. Cat!! Who said anything about you having a vixen rubbed all over you!? I believe the offer was made to me...
But on a lighter note, I have it on good authority that a POOK is heading this way soon... Why aren't you joining him? huh? huh? *poke*
Skully - yes it is real 'flu... But I'm taking it like a man. It's nearly gone now though. I found that drinking a litre and a half of Orange Juice before going to bed sorted it out a bit, but the hot and cold sweats for the last couple of days weren't nice. If there's still an offer of naked ladies going, though...
And the soup has to be Chicken. I'm sorry, nothing else is good when you have illness.Vix -
Hello Lauz!! Twas nice to finally meet you, well don on learning airwraps!! there's still lots of variations for you to be taught, though. Come to Hull again and I'll get you started...

you don't need me to teach you that, silly!! There's plenty of sites that'll teach you the basics, just search Google or something... If I were to teach Diabolo, it would be like the blind leading the blind!!
