Well, this is my 2000th HoP post, so thought I'd might as well do an intro thread
Now, let's see:
Name: Paul
Age: 25 (at the moment)
From: Bookham, near Guildford
Toys: Poi, Staff & Contact Juggling (mostly)
Pink preference
: I like it
Significant Others: Mrs Durbs
Well, I spin with all the other Guildford lot, also am part of Burnt Toast (www.burnttoast.co.uk), can occasionally be seen at Spitz too...
Beer anyone?

Bali is indeed beautiful - but really too humid to go out and enjoy it. Haven't spent much time here mind you - 2 days in Kuta, then off to the Gili Islands to do nothing for 10 days...
We're now holing up in Ubud for the remainder, then nipping back to Kuta for some last minute cheap shopping - then Austraila!
*Does special dance*
Woo hoo!
Oh, and where's my "All My News" e-mail you were going to send me?!
And don't mention postcards

Durbs, you fat pieman!!!! Sorry I've not been in touch much. Internets been sparse as I spend all my money on strongie bs and pies and have none spare for net cafes!!! Hope you're enjoying Oz.... Can't believe you'll be here so soon and I won't!! I will send you an email soon, probably when I'm back at some stage. Will gather the strays up in Guildford and make sure Thursdays happen while you're gone. Glad you two are having lots of fun with wombats.

Funny? or Erotic?
Shouts out to the WA posse - you guys are all lovely. And Gnor's the loveliest of all (Note Gnor + Wombat picture in my gallery)
Now in Adelaide with some dude called Ben - lovely chap, but strange taste in women
Met lots of Adelaidian people too, including the very wonderful Brett, Lou and Mig (although only really breifly) and even a Josh and a Kate but was a little overwhelmed by the size and volume of the Friday spin-meets and got all shy and didn't mix well.
FP - Post-whats? I seem to have misplaced your address again... Er... mumble mumble mumble...

Australia's cool and pretty.

Durbs I just read your travel log and giggled heaps. Didnt realise you nearly missed your flight completely. Would have been a cunning plan on my behalf if I could have planned it.
So now I need to make Walleroo poi.
Hmm how to do that.

Might have been the erect nipples bit, or the bit about what the song is good for.
