Hey there all u crazy fire peeps

Let me know when ur havin ur next meetin and where it is since it probably wont be in trinity. I will surly make that next one. I wouldnt mind meetin yiz all and then seein what the craic is for clonakilty. So far its a from me and from me mate Pee but it depends on cash.

I have a favour to ask yiz too. I work as a model for Peter Mark and theres a fashion show comin up in November in Vicar Street that I'll be in. There'll be different acts on with drama and dance. There may be an interest in gettin a few fire spinners so if any of yiz have a couple of routines and wud be interested in showin off in Vicar street let me know. I asked the co-ordinator if she'd be interested and she more than likely wud be. Im not fired up yet or by no means able to perform any kind a poi poi dancin but I thought yiz might be interested. It'd be a great night like.

Anyways let me know

Hey Pixie...

We are all meeting up (I think and hope) at Tara on the weekend of Saturday 24 September (in two weeks time) for Lisa (Faberge)'s leaving party.

Lisa has been completely marvellous in bringing the Irish spinning community together, and she'll be much missed when she goes travelling at the end of September.

Bring your spinning buddies along - it'll be a great opportunity to meet everyone and start spinning fire with experienced poiples to look out for you.

(Also, bring jumpers and blankets, food, tents etc... cos it might get a bit cold out there!!)

Take care, hope to see you soon
Clare xx

oh, almost forgot

suggestion for tara...

The place where the folks had their Tipee set up at the solstice was alot more sheltered from the wind, rain etc than our usual spot. Lots of trees handily positioned to put tents under etc.

we even found a place 'in' the trees that is like a mini camp in itself. though im not sure if the faeries are sharing that spot.

There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers...

you brought a tent last time too honey, this time try bringing poles & groundsheet too :P
pixie, theres a posibility of glow spinners doing a little show inside too, if there will be any music it could look cool.

who's up for a fire spin on grafton street saturday night if its not raining?

well hello there oddballs, wierdos and all form of freaks i call my dear friends, you all know who you are

burning man was f*cking amazing (or AWESOME in american!) it's gotta be the best kick ass party on the face of the planet! you all HAVE TO go next year!

been back since wednesday but i've spent most of my time in bed catching up on some well deserved rest

i also have some terrible news (well it might be bad for some, good for others) but some crazy shite has been happening and it's all a big mess.... but won't get into that just now.

really looking forward to seeing you all at tara

colleen, i'll be in portstewart this weekend send me your number if you're about and we can meet up for wee while. hope you're feeling better and on the mend

clare babe, hope all is well will try ringing you over the weekend. perhaps we could meet for a bit when i'm on my way back from portstewart, as i'll more than likely be (rather reluctantly given the present climate ) passing through belfast.

and the rest of you lot get loads and loads of these and these and these

soon....

Hey lady,

Glad you had a splendid time... looking forward to hearing about it.

And I'm even more glad that you're missioning up to Portstewart Hope you have fun.

What's the bad thing that happened, are you ok? I'll be in touch later.

Not doing the best myself, all things considered, but we'll chat later.

Take care and see you soon xxx

Excellent stuff people, Im workin on gettin me cronies to Tara. Sounds like fun! Cant wait to meet yiz!!

Here's the news... The Fashion Show in Vicar St. has not yet been confirmed and Im not in any way running it so I have to forward these ideas to a friend who is. Great response by the way, I will let u all know really soon when its confirmed. I will also chance me arm at gettin yiz a decent fee for givin up yer time etc., as Im lookin at it as work for ye. So if ur not interested in doing it volunteer thats perfectly understandable just let me know. Ive taken note of whose interested, please forward me ur numbers and i'll get other details off ya when I meet ye so I can put u on file for other events! (Aiden send me ur No. again I accidently deleted the PM!)

Here's the other news. Im studyin Music/Event Management and a lot of my work involves live events like mini festivals, trad sessions, dance and rock events everything really. There will be the odd event comin up where all yee may either be interested in buyin tickets to or what I hope,is to get u spinnin for the event. In some cases it may be volunteer but hopefully I'll have sponsership and there will be payment. If theres no payment you'll obviously get in free of charge and I may look after yiz in some way or another...like, I have this giant fleece blanket...yil love it

So, cheers for the responses, PM me with details anyone else whos interested.

Over n out xxx

So who exactly is going to Tara?



Lisa, Ronan, Eimhim, Aidan, Amelie, Colleen, Helen, me...?



I know it's a bit late notice... but there's a huge party happening up here - if anyone remembers Matt from Belfast?



He's throwing a party out at his farm... great music, sound system, lovely people, camping space etc.



Lisa, would you be up for relocating the party? Might be fun... especially if it's this rainy at the weekend.









Barry... I know you won't be on here for a while... but you're in my thoughts

And Darrell

haven't seen you in a while... hope you're well

Party in Belfast sounds great. Its a bit far and a bit to costly for cest moi though.



edit/



oh yeah... colm from cork is up for tara also (and stefan and kia i think), said he'd bring up his big barbacue if there is a bit of interest in people bringing cookable foodstuffs. t'would be uber handy as we could light a big fire on it when we finish with the munchies!!!

Hope to see all you guys soon, if not at tara then at one of the upcoming conventions!!!

I think we definitely need a fire - the cold is our enemy and must be defeated.

I'm keeping well Claire, work's been a bit nuts lately so I haven't had time for much spinning - I've only touched my poi once or twice in the last couple of months.

Although I have picked up a little bit of Djembe (courtesy of Jake) and I boughty a set of clubs which I have yet to master despite a good bit of practise.

All the best and see you all Sat

Sorry Clare, and everyone else, but i won't be at Tara - or Belfast either for that matter.

I'm going to Bristol on Friday for the tail end of the juggling convention. Hope to see you all in Clonakilty the following weekend though
