Well, I don't know when in July I'm going yet, but I intend to be running around england this July. I have a friend in York I will hopefully be staying with, and a variety of people like a Lolli and a Cantus and a Dom and a Durbs whom I really need to see (and Kali insists on me meeting Te Pooka particuarly Minero... you're blue cat now, right?)



Anyway- I want your suggestions where I should go, who I should stay with, what gatherings I should attend. I know I've been off the boards a bit lately, but I'm hoping there's still friendly people around willing to show me a good time. Lightning insists that there are.



So help me plan!

Yay, FNF!!! Of course I want to meet youuuuuuu! I wasn't sure you even remembered me you have not spoked to me in ages.... so where do I find info on this "Falmouth" you all speak of?

It does seem like everyone will be there and like I should get some sleep before hand because that may be my last sleep for awhile.

well there's definitely a twirler mecca thing happening, you me and andy all flying in at the same time.
we've never talked much but it seems that you may be following the same path as me and blue around the UK... if there's anything i can do to help before we get there, let me know. I've found a place that says they sell tickets to and from anywhere in EU for $99, for example...

at the least it's good to team up with an opp. sex cutie while traveling... much easier to find couches wink ubblol

Hey can somebody give a quick description of what Falmouth is like? all i can find is people saying how great it is, and that there's tents and a beach...

arashi-it's great and there's tents and a beach.. wink

Falmouth is like a big party/convention in Cornwall. We stay at a campsite a short walk from the beach, party, spin, juggle, uncycle, generally mess about and have a good time. It's really relaxed and there's a really good attitude from the people there. Oh yeah and it will help you put names to faces for most of the UK HoP people. And you may well see new toys you haven't seen used before. And get to have a go with them! Oh yeah and if there's ANY poi/staff concept you're having difficulty with, odds are someone will be able to help you with it there!

That enough?

Because ActiveAngel sounds like a feminine deodorant

Btw, Kali and DFQ(that is lindsays alias, right?) are gonna be around at some point too! Its uber spinner mecca.

So in general it appears I will be in London the 6th-11th, and wanting people to show me around altho I understand Ros will be down on the weekend. Then, assuming I can get ahold of Miss Lolli or someone, I intend to head up to the infamous sheffeild. From there I'm expecting to hit uberpoi, and from there I run away for a few days to york. Then I have to figure out how to get to Falmouth, by bus, train, or shefffieldian poi-er. Then I go play in Ros's lovely fairy home, and then I find a way to meander back to London and I have to fly home and work. This is n't set in stone, but its about what I'm planning with Ros's wonderful help.

Now, isn't that how Edinburgh is spelt? Like, on maps? My understanding is that its pronounced something like "eh-den-bruh" (thats a slightly american english thing at the end.... its not ooooh, but what in the IPA is a schwa). but then again I've only ever remember hearing a Derby native say it.

Holy cow- Kali... haven't heard that name in a while. I think things just got bumped up a notch... we've gone from super amazing ubertrip to *WARNING-NUCLEAR MELTDOWN* excl devil excl



I'm most likely flying in to Embra around the 13th for the most mind blowing experience i could imagine ubbrollsmile and then going where the wind takes me, hopefully following blue around a bit to learn more moves, hopefully to hang with glass and dom and spiral and fluffy and cantus and vanize, hopefully roundabout to where the breakbeats and raga are... I'm searching for Freqnasty gigs, gonna pull some strings... looks like I may be around for 2-5 weeks.

and i'm certainly not avoiding any cutiepatootie fairy spinner girlies and fellas wherever they may be, if they think they can keep up wink ...

haha, I still can't imagine what I was on when i did the title. I was all confused..... wondering if i'd been reading maps wrong all my life....

anyway, besides utter confusion (I can't even read the Falmouth and Uberpoi threads sensically anymore) planning is going well- people figure I can handle a tiny suitcase with my backpack (for weapon like objects plus if i pick anything up along the way...) I need to figure how to borrow a sleeping bag though, if anyone has any suggestions...

Also, the awesome yellow poi dom has... surely you all know what I'm talking about... someone remind me were those made by glass? I don't want to randomly start pm'ing people requesting wonderful insane (trying to avoid saying uber) poi until I am quite sure I have the right person tongue

Another thing can someone distill any info I need to know about uberpoi/falmouth in terms of money/accomidations

And I'm looking for places to stay in London, (or near) so lemme know what ya guys got.

Falmouth = camping = ask someone nicely for space in a tent if you can't bring your own smile £5 per night for a pitch - and if you end up sharing wiht someone then half that smile

Bluemog will help you with uberpoi, which costs £45 for the mind-blowing poi-trip of a lifetime biggrin

Leave train/bus/lift plans down to Falmouth til closer to the time and various others sort out what they are likely to be doing ubbangel As for the beginning of your trip I'll wait til closer to before I say for sure what I'm up to but there be hoards of lovely london folk to help you out biggrin

Eep, 45 pounds is... a bit in american money but then I'm running all over the place I might as well give in and spend a little smile Not like my plane ticket isn't expensive enough. biggrin
So I seem to have London pretty well setltled, and I got ahold of Lolli, and Unless someone wants to tell me anything more about uberpoi accomidations I think I should be pretty set for awhile.... I'll post when I have tickets in hand. Also anyone who knows about train costs should clue me in as for what to expect, please......

Thx smile

Well, when's the July pip?

And I made noise over in uberpoi, but I can't so much send a deposit, so you just all have to belive me. I suppose I could send something once I get to england, but that might get all complicated tooo...

I do have my plane tix, I get in on the 6th of July and leave sadly early on the 27th. I got a nice deal considering its summer travel smile And I just got a check for about ten dollars more than the price of said tickets today smile

Drew dear, dom already pm'd me and I emailed him back lots of happiness smile I love how you are both so generous! And am amused by your communication.... tongue
He may not have seen this email yet, though. biggrin biggrin And as for those poi, They are dom's day glo yellow poi and I want a pair!!!!!! So if you made those can you sews me a pair? smile I'll trade anything I'm capable of giving.... unfortunetly I can't cook, but I have other skills!!!!

I'll try and make better communication later, but I'm on the road-ish right now- back in SC, Cali, and tommorow we head out for CO springs with a pickup full of stuff, then on to Chicago. I'll be back in humble idiotic Okemos on the 6th of June....

*hugs to all*

brilliant bluecat, i just got back in town anyway and so its just as useful this week (or more) as it would have been last.

Someone poke glass for me if he doesn't see this and ask if green worked out- i'm still a little touch and go on how often i can check this for a few days

I am sooooooo excited. I need a break from life... i mean, i've been travelling, but its still so busy and hectic and I have fifteen boxes to unpack. I also havn't met enough romantic men in awhile but everyone says england is the wrong place for that so i guess i have to settle for hugs and poi tongue

(or mayhap I will capture a welsh boy at some party somewhere.... *plots*)

Michigan is muggy and has weird people.

Sorry. I'm tired. Thanks everyone for helps!

Someone let me know if my lack of deposit has been noted and taken into account as me coming anyhow
