juggle weavesmiley Manchester Spinner’s Meet up and stuff weavesmiley juggle



Hi all If you are looking for people to spin poi with in the North west this is the place to be.



For any one new to this sight DON’T READ THE WHOLE THREAD it has been going a long time and contains lots of old information and chat about previous meet ups and organisation stuff just go to the last few posts to find out the most up-to-date information on current events.



First a bit of info the Manchester spinners lot is no professional spinning troop or organised events it is just a group of people who get together to enjoy themselves. The first meet up was organised way beck in September 04 https://delizium.fotopic.net/c291964.html

The crowd has changed a bit from back then but we have kept a few old timers we welcome all along to come and join us for a spin whether you be experienced or a complete beginner we are willing to teach and learn from you.



Their is no set time for the meet ups they are usually organised around when people can make it and how long they can stay.



I will try to update this first post as often as I can with the most up-to-date info on meet ups and club nights that allow spinning but if I'm being a bit lax just find the last few posts foe up-to-date info (like I said before weren’t you paying attention)



To date the standard meets have gone as meet up in Piccadilly gardens at 4pm (nice central point where every one can get to) Then move on down to the Gas Works/CastleField or Plat fields Park depending on the wether till everyone gets to cold/tired/burned then on to the pub

( anybody who doesn’t know where this is it can be arranged for someone to come meet you at the train station or wherever you are coming from .) smile

{ ubblove We are a nice bunch like that ubblove}



Accommodation for a night can usually be arranged but you need to sort this well in advance no just turning up expecting somewhere to sleep eek





(more to be added and all to be spell checked soon)



pm me any info you would like to add

before i met those lot i thought they'd be a bunch of dreadlocked hippies that smoked, set things on fire ,and drank a lot of tea but then when i met them....oh wait (PyroWill)

ubblol come on Mike, you know what we're like - but it always comes good in the end...

Re; Saturday, looks like the weather is going to be kind to us so we can do Platt Field - probably for the last time this year frown

Meet at 4 - Jen will be in the pub (Hardy's Well or whatever it's called) so either meet there or by 'our' tree by the church - and it gets dark so early now we'll be firing it up by 7, back in the pub at 10 then wherever afterwards - any suggestions?

Oh god I'm doing it again aren't I? Lil Miss Organised strikes again! ubblol Sorry guys, but once someone posts they're confused I have to do it!

As for Friday, at this rate you 2 will be getting me out of bed! Put 'knocking me up' first but thought better of it ubblol

We sure should try and do something - lets have a pow-wow over the weekend and see what we can come up with.

And Joe, we don't stop the meets in the winter, just move location to the Gasworks cos there's shelter from the weather

He called me up half an hour ago (hes a manager at the place i used to work) and asked me to come in and wash up for his 21st, lol as if im gonna, only he would have the nerve to ask me to come in, and get annoyed at me and start talking to mum n dad behind my back, couse he reackons i'll be manipulated into doing it.
