Hallo all!
Time to leap from the shadows and say hi!
After my first poi twirling episode on Christmas Eve (someone else opened their present early...) I decided it was time to stop procrastinating and get that lovely fire staff I've always wanted.
I'm from Aus, but travelling around Europe at the moment, so once I found the breakdown staff I simply had to get it.
After much poring over online lessons and broom handle twirling of previous months, I've now finally got my favourite new toy!
Weeee!!
So hi everyone! I'll no doubt be back here regularly, looking for more tricks. In the meantime, I have to go and earn money for some monkey fist poi.....and of course work on some witty, thought-provoking signature.

I like pink
I say "travelling around Europe" just because it sounds more glamorous than working in the UK....
Trying to save pennies so I can travel, but haven't got too far past Scotland and Wales yet!
Still, off to Spain in a month, looking forward to finally playing in some sun!

Cool, thanks!
Incidentally, I've got around to a signature, quoting Frank from Donnie Darko. If a six foot, time travelling rabbit isn't motivating, I just don't know what is....

As long it involves some kind of bolognase massage, I might be interested.

Not entirely sure.... I doubt it would be tasteful or even edible, but amusing nonetheless.
Did I mention I'm sick of London's weather? I'm telling everyone today.
