ok well its confirmed.
IVe booked the date in, and so now we have a lovely big Hall with a Kitchen and toilet block, along with a big ass campign area and flat area to use for the weekend! sept 30, Oct 1, 2 and 3. Its in a beautiful location only 5 minutes from the closest Public Transport and Supermarket, or 25 minutes by car from the Adelaide GPO. We can arrange transport to and from the site from the Bus stop given a bit of notice.
We've also bought a big ass markee to use as a 2nd learning area if the workshops get too big to fit in the hall.
I was thinking we could also have a bit of a party on the saturday night if people were able to chip in for a PA...
so yeah - if you are interested in something or doing something else - say so!
and yes - there will be a large campfire, and a big fire spin.

I just decided last night that I'll be doing a didgeridoo workshop as well, with Kerry from the firetwirling nights.
I'll be making temporary didge's out of PVC tubes so everyone can have a go, hopefully that will work

Don't know how I'll be able to make it though... Train sounds good but for being a struggling student... Time to start saving those pennies .:*distracted by shiny things*:.

for interstaters who arnt flying we will take your word as your bond
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

i think that myself and sir shen shui are planning on doing the train over from melb... seems like it is going to be the cheapest option... and should be lotsa fun if there are other hoppers around
unfortunately we will not be going back that way though... Only when you close your eyes can you really see...

When you're on inlines and are holding the person in front of you's hips. Preferably with plenty of people hurtling down a hill. Duh.
