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.

thats an unfair contest Mynci
I don't mind putting my tent up...I really rather enjoy it...but I HATE having to take it down. I remember the only real little uhm 'disagreement' between me and Lee at last years Play was when it came time to take down the tent... and me not wanting to
I own the englishman...so I'm not bothered

Lois, I have put you on the gate from 4-8 with marie on the friday evening think you can manage that? it's the second shift, I will be doing midnight until 6am and any who want to join me are welcome you should be free of obligation after that apart from a bit of tidying and enforcing green-ness.

I havent played a tv game since I was about 14. But this is different. We played golf and tennis and bowling and baseball. Really worked up a bit of a sweat too
And it had NOTHING to do with how many cherry beers I ended up having
