Hi, I'm brand spanking new to HOP, never even new it existed until I stumbled upon it recently. Only just starting to get my sea legs as far as the technology thing goes. Just typed poi into a search engine and BAM, Here I am. And right glad I am too.
Been spinning for years on and off, started in South Africa and the enthusiasm kinda waned once I got to the UK and refused to leave the warmth of indoors for months. Years later I am regaining my passion and learnig to accept that 26 degrees celcius is warm.
Think Hop is amazing, looking forward to learning and living and loving and growing.

well hertz rent-a-car have a location in telford.
we COULD do 1 day hire souothampton to play (drop car at telford and I get bus / train to play)
then do the same for the way back...
cost for 1 day with hertz is £30 for a ford focus with aircon, supposed to take 5 people and 3 suitcases (or 4 people and 4 cases I assume.)
that would be... £15 each + petrol + ticket so about £35 each for travel, that's not too bad....

Oh well, it was worth a shot

shame maybe next year when we are all rich but you could get 10 people in a limo surely... I suppose the mileage would suck (extra cost) and would be slow up the motorway.
and I doubt a limo would be able to get into the field it was a nice thought.
I didn't blow the cars up, the vectra tried to burn us alive, i just put it in reverse!
*sigh* lunch is nearly over
although I get to see marie tonight for the first time since the weekend, I've been really bored....

it's not that I don't think they are right, I just thik a discussion needs several sides, if all of them are agreeing then what's the point, it's not a discussion.
they need a focal point for their anger, hippies need to let it out somewhere too, they aren't always happy and cuddly

Don't be so touchy Mynci, I've read that thread and your argument is valid, it's not like you're saying we can do what want because it doesn't effect the planet. Give me names, I'll cyber-evil them who disgruntle you so!
Oh my god!!!! I forgot you cut your hair!! I'm sorry but I can't talk to you anymore, even if you are Mynci!
