Hi all... I am a complete newbie to poi, fire twirling and anything/everything related. In fact, I'll only even see it in real life for the 1st time next Friday (making it down to the Moon Fest on north side of Brissie).
Anyway, this is me...

Favorite Color(s): Green
Toys: Acoustic guitar, Classical guitar, 3 electric guitars, 2 djembes.
Hobbies other than the obvious: Music, Reading, Keeping fit (hmmm, not so much of the keeping fit, actually)
Education: Did Bachelor of Science majoring in Computer Science and Pure Maths. Then Grad Dip Appl Computing... then started a research masters, but gave it away when life got in the way.

Favorie ice cream flavor(s): Vanilla.
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella? (please choose one...this is important as it is essentially this site's equivalent of stating your religion...we have religious wars, crusades, cathedrals to Nutella, all that.)
Definitely... vegemite.

Is that like driving a tank through random threads is it? Hmmm, might have the same effect - random Goon quotes in random peoples threads .... tempting!

Bubble wrap suit? I think I'd just roll around on the ground popping the bubbles if I had one of those!

Clare, that's kind of the idea...for when we push you down the hill...that way we can listen to the bubble popping *all* the way to the bottom...
