Summer Location: Queen Victoria gardens.



The aim is not for a solely firetwirling night, but a night whereby firetwirlers, jugglers, contact jugglers, diabolo etc can meet. So feel free to bring friends who may be interested.

Night starts at 6pm for all those who are keen to learn. Fire starts after dark 7.00 - 8ish till late!



So.... the location is Queen Victoria Gardens

St. Kilda Road – opposite 'National Gallery of VIC' (Old Arts Gallery with spire)

The grassed area near the three raised palm trees. (Look out for the bronze statue hammer thrower)

With only a 5 minute walk over the princess bridge from Flinders Street station.

Here's the map

*WINTER LOCATION*

Under the Princess bridge (Southbank side). Where the Southbank Sundey market happens.

I just arrived in Melb. Am staying in a hostel on king street which seems nice enough.

Now to find my way around the city for a bit. Will hopefully see some of you at a meet later this week. When and where are they on?

Wednesday night they're at the edinburgh Gardens; just catch the 112 tram till you see a massive park anf the fire twirling.

Thursday it's at O'donnels Park, I don't know how to get to this one.

Sunday night it's opposite the Arts Centre - the big Eiffel Tower place.

If anyone can provide better directions/spelling, feel free to do so, because these ones suck even for me.

Kupo!

I wasn't able to make it because of family dinner frown
I went round to my cousins place, and her boyfriend looked at my computer and it's fubar.

So if anyone wants a computer, DON'T go to a place called 4D, because they suck.

Anyways, I should be at Wednesday/Thursday hopefully!

Kupo!

No-one was there last night - either that or I was in the wrong place. However, I did start a conversation with a Russian chick on the tram on the way back and spent the rest of the night with her, so it wasn't too bad.

Might be able to make it to Sunday; we'll see. Failing that I'll be there Wednesday!

Kupo!

I probably will, would've gone last night but I was hanging out with some of the crew from Cirque. By the way, I saw the show last night, there's some new stuff in it for Melbourne, Dominic Champagne (the director) was there checking out the new stuff.

Catch you all on Sunday
