Hi, I'm brand spanking new to HOP, never even new it existed until I stumbled upon it recently. Only just starting to get my sea legs as far as the technology thing goes. Just typed poi into a search engine and BAM, Here I am. And right glad I am too.
Been spinning for years on and off, started in South Africa and the enthusiasm kinda waned once I got to the UK and refused to leave the warmth of indoors for months. Years later I am regaining my passion and learnig to accept that 26 degrees celcius is warm.
Think Hop is amazing, looking forward to learning and living and loving and growing.

Snuggle the left, the right is rubbish
I had a Harry Potter weekend...also managed to finish unpacking and make my room and the kitchen spotless
Helping moving went well, although yesterday I got mysteriously covered in mud while helping...
Didn't find time to throw Mr Majestik's peanut in the sea though as it was raining most of yesterday, I'll have to do it at some point this week... *ponders*

In South africa too... I thought the whole pebble-thing was a myth till I got here but no, they are defenitly very real.It can be a blessing....like not having sand in every crevice, but it hurts your feet and it's hard to manouvre around on

No extra wealth at the moment, but this is what I need to do to get the relevant experiance to get a managers job... time estimated : 6 months and I should have the necissary skills. Then major £££ increase, about £4000k That should get my debts paid of quicker so that I can go home sooner

You want pics of our new home bubbles? Don't be silly, you'll have to come and see it
It's so beautiful...and very grown up (well as grown up as you can get for me and Lee)
Are you sure you're ready for this 87, I mean really really sure? Because once this starts theres no going back (unless you click your heels together 3 times, but thats another story for another time)...
