Hi all... I am a complete newbie to poi, fire twirling and anything/everything related. In fact, I'll only even see it in real life for the 1st time next Friday (making it down to the Moon Fest on north side of Brissie).
Anyway, this is me...

Favorite Color(s): Green
Toys: Acoustic guitar, Classical guitar, 3 electric guitars, 2 djembes.
Hobbies other than the obvious: Music, Reading, Keeping fit (hmmm, not so much of the keeping fit, actually)
Education: Did Bachelor of Science majoring in Computer Science and Pure Maths. Then Grad Dip Appl Computing... then started a research masters, but gave it away when life got in the way.

Favorie ice cream flavor(s): Vanilla.
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella? (please choose one...this is important as it is essentially this site's equivalent of stating your religion...we have religious wars, crusades, cathedrals to Nutella, all that.)
Definitely... vegemite.

Now THOSE are tubs. If I ever get to own my own place I'm so redoing the bath and installing one of those.

goodness... but ladies (and paul), you've been keeping the place well loved while I've been absent...!! I went back and tried to catch up on what has been going on in here, but I saw paul sobbing and couldn't take anymore... I choose to assume that the rest of it was all good...
I'll try track down your thread too, but paul...

I suck... but you'll be happy to know, I've managed to get sick all over again... over the easter long weekend no less, so, I suppose karma came and bit me on the arse...!!baby... those baths are heavenly...!!

Of course we kept your place all nice and busy for you while you were away...lets you know that you're loved...
I can't decide which one of the baths is the best...you'll just have to help me choose once we're ready to get one...gotta be big enough for two, ya know!?!

Had to sneak a quick peak at Pogo before I go. You guys have certainly "cleaned" up your act since I was last here!!

JT, I thought that we'd established a long time ago that I'd much rather have a hot, buttered Pogo...and the rum can be secondary...
Hmmm...we've got a new way to keep it 'clean'...
