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.

Were you bad?Sweetheart, I don't even have a clue on how to get myself to workout, nevermind anyone else. I climb trees and bellydance and walk home,and once a week I bounce like a...bouncything for a couple of hours in a club.... thats about the extent of my physical activity

Hey! I dont think I have a bebo thingamabobby, if I do I don't use it. I've signed up for loads of things that I never use. I blame my friends
I don't know when we will be seeing each other sweetheart. Southern lights maybe?
Hope that you are well

hi my dear how are you doing by the way did you know there is a £1 million return to south africa tax... included in that is invites to come visit.
(just in case you do ever leave us
) A couple of balls short of a full cascade... or maybe a few cards short of a deck... we'll see how this all fans out.

I'd have to leave quietly then
I'm working on it, I'm working on it. 
but it's not going well, I'm just preparing people for worst cas scenarios. I have the cash to stay in the UK, but only just,and it means I can't really leave (as I planeed to go back to SA for a couple of years) whereas if I go before October, I save myself a bundle, but i can never come back...Opinions are not asked for, neither will they be listened to.I'm just letting you know whats going on.
