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.

My BOSS is the meanie.. I'm not ALLOWED to take holiday between 20/12 and 6/1 because it is not deemed "FAIR" on other members of staff.
unfortunately shipping doesn't stop at X-mas because so many countries don't celebrate it as a holiday.
If you're gonna be around for my birthday..any ideas? it's my last one before I'm *whispers* 30
hopefully I will have sold my house and have some cash
that would be a GOOD birthday 
and it's the 5th by the way *sugh* see you don't care at all

Dude, we need to worry about baby Lee's birthday first, 13th September. I dont know what he wants to do either.
About bank holiday weekens as per your text (which was very very long by the way
) I'm not too sure whats happening that weekend, but I know Saturday is party night and sunday is party day and Monday is recovery day. It's going to get insanely messy. So maybe thats not the best weekend. First weekend in September is cool for me (dunno about baby Lee though) Whatcha think??

Three days WOOOOOO!!!! I knew it was a monday, just didn't know which Monday it would be. Thats good news. Can't get enough of us SOutherners eh?
I cant complain. Working hard, playing hard (no change then)
Only just started seeing a new man, Baby Lee is back on the floozie market too (He's a lot happier), which is good.
Stopped coming on HOP so much, just got tired of some of the fineckyness, made posting a chore insted of a pleasure. The downside ofcoarse is lack of HOP contact and gossip

, found him in the end. Thank Goodness for clock towers!Ah, twas a pleasure having the Shaolin come and stay, even for only one night, despite his tendancy to take less than flattering pictures of HOPpers in their own homes.
Left him at home watching daytime tv, his plan is to catch a train to Portsmouth at some point today. I wouldnt be surprised if we arrived home tonight to find him still there, glued to the tv screen with his own drool...

2 minutes from bus stop to work is a bitch when raining.

It tends to be fine until about two minutes before I leave the house in the morning, then chucks it down for at least 25 minutes of my half hour walk to work and stops pretty much as I approach the building I wourk in. This happens at least twice a week, without fail, and |I lost the umbrella I borrowed from Rose. Bugger.
