Hey there everyone,
Well, now that I'm close to post number 300 I thought I'd do an intro thread... it seems like I'll be hanging around for a while now
Edit:
Yep, this is all changed cos I'm not feeling as sentimental as I was when I wrote the last intro.
I'm 28, live outside Belfast in Northern Ireland, run the fire performance group FirePoise (www.firepoise.com), like to travel and good music.
My myspace page is www.myspace.com/clarepalmer
Take care
bye

Excellent. Can I have a car like his? although the driver he had must be really old by now. He was a kid in the 70s...

Hellos Havokist!
Good to see you
I'm absolutely shattered after an incredible weekend, and I think I might go and take a lil nap before the gig tonight.
Tomorrow I'm going down to Dublin for the Tara invasion... which is going to be fun.
And how are you? Hope you're well and everything has improved in your life

Heya Miss Firepoise. Did you get the hug that I sent to Ireland for you?
My state of mind is not yours to define!
There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

Hello Havokist, well done on no more French... but remember the basics, because they'll come in handy for chatting up French women in years to come
Bird... hmmm. I may have done. Probably did... many hugs were exchanged this weekend... but just in case
and thanks.We had a great weekend, I wish you could have made it over
Take care and see you soon

Yeah, things kinda went a bit pear shaped on the coming over front.
Oh well, next time. My hug should have been delivered by skulduggery, she was under strict instructions to hug people for me.

Ah yes... in that case, I am most certainly sure that I received a Bird-esque hug.
And she will be bringing one back from me
Take care x

Thanks lovely Englishy types
So then, I think the Irish can just about claim victory over this invasion then?!! The balance has been redressed and the future of all Anglo/Irish tensions resolved?
Splendid - I'll just sit back and wait for the 6 Nations
And Strugz, it took me MONTHS of practice to get that contact poi 'just right'
But, y'know, you don't have to show anyone else. You could always keep it secret Skully lady, I shall speak to you soon... go and sleep for a while... I'm just awake myself.
Take care everyone - and happy solsticing

Oh god, what a dilemma.
Accept a draw to save my own inevitable embarassment, or suffer the humilation and claim victory for Ireland.
Oh. When you think about it, it's not so bad.

Spinners Army Wicked to have met you this weekend. You're an absolute star - you helped the invasion go swimmingly. Thank you sooooooo much for the help with the bags yesterday - I don't think any of our sunburnt shoulders could have coped carrying all our stuff.
Seeing as you and strugz are in here - thought you guys would like to see this little gem:
strugz and firepoise
Hope you got back to Belfast OK.
See you at Falmouth!!! You will be there won’t you!!!
Live well, love much, laugh often...

Oh god (again).
Thanks Helz, it was really lovely to meet you... and I'm going to do my best to be at Falmouth... I haven't checked my bank account in a while... I know it's going to be scary
And Havokist... whaddya mean 'haven't seen Buckfast in ages'?!!
Puh! You are too young for such alcohol OR in fact for getting stoned... but I'm not being so naive about the weed.
Take care m'lovelies... can't wait to see you again soon
