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 very much doubt he will come to Southern Lights, so lets say the spot is yours. If he does change his mind at the last minute I will let you know...but I doubt he will.

Nope I'm not coming. If I don't go to O2 then I'm staying at home for the weekend so feel free to keep my wife warm
Colourful but not very bright.

Hey! At BJC this year I had to help a str8 guy put up his tent after putting mine up first
I can think of worse things than being Lois's Biatch (Shrinking another few inches after being weighed down by constant backpacking, in England no less)
So no probs in that department!
Petey, she's ALL yours...

yes and the Englishman wins because he is driving and nobody argues with a driver who can blow up a car at whim
