yes folks, it's drawing closer, the best juggling convention in the world! (according to Derek.)
The 18th-26th September, Woodhouse Park, Bristol. It's going to be great and I hope to see a lot of spinners there advancing the opinion of poi amoungst jugglers (that's gonna happen!).

There's camping Bug! I may have to share your tent again, though hopefully for more than two hours this time
I just read that back and it sounds a bit dodgy... oops

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?

yeah my house is currently not excatly mine at the moment (I'm sleeping in the cushion room and not paying rent
), but I'm sure it'd be ok for a few people to stay... though I'm quite tempted to camp if there's good weather - oh yeah and a tent

woah Tim!
we hear nothing from you in weeks and then you say you're gonna die in europe somewhere? Well that's not good enough! You get your ass back to Bristol - we got performances to do boy!
well I'll be back in Brizzle sometime late next week, so I'll expect you to be there!
but seriously now, take care of yourself sweetheart - and if you don't we'll have a whole line of people isolateing staffs at your funeral - hey maybe we could even isolate your coffin!

Isolated coffin
Would it be the cremated fire version or would we have to resort to sticking glo sticks to the end?
So when is everyone going? I'll only be there for one weekend so which will be the best? 18/19th or 25/26th? Anyone have any idea how much it is for entry and camping etc?

Ahhh, it's out between Almondsbury and Thornbury. Cool - quite near my house, although camping does sound like a laugh!
Does the £9 day tickets include the camping?
