Just wanna say i went to manchester's monthly meet on sat, it was only the second time i have been to the meet, and it was so much FUN. not only was it nice to practise/learn poi with others around but everyone is so sociable(bad spelling im sure!) and theres a really good warm atmosphere. cant wait for the next meet and i plan to keep practising!!!

It wouldnt be that your not good enough Havokist, its just unless you do something silly that embarasses yourself such as spinning in constant circles, falling off pogo sticks or attempting spinning blindfolded such as me n tobi, dont expect to be remembered

Hi Skrible
were you the girl I was talking to sitting on the wall and having abit of a lesson? If so, next time we'll get you weaving for sure - just keep practising! Hope you're coming in Feb? check the Events bit... and make sure you're free to stay the whole time and not run off early Spacecow, give us warning of when you're over and we'll arrange a meet in your honour - we like an excuse to play
Vixen, will def come and meet up with you - what time's the performance you're seeing? Trafford Centre's abit out of town so either we'll come to you or you come to us - we'll give you directions
