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.

I've tried that, but my dad earns dollars, and lets say the amount he gives my mom each month wouldn't allow her the lifestyle she is accustomed to in SA, nowhere near. Plus my dad doesn't like the cold, and it would be WAY too much of a mission for him to fly between zambia and the uk every month. Dont worry about it, I'm sorting it out. I'll let you know my decisions once they are made.

it's a bit fruity...a bit plucky perhaps, but it will defenitly satisfy your pallet, especially with a juicy piece of pork
All I'm saying is that you better start praying to the car Gods before every meal man...

Hello sugar plum!
I say I say I say I see you are driving to southern lights - does this mean you have a new beast?!
If you do, and there is enough room, would there be space for little (hah) aimee to sit in and pay you with petrol money and rolling cigs and knitting with sunshine wool?
