Summer Location: Queen Victoria gardens.
The aim is not for a solely firetwirling night, but a night whereby firetwirlers, jugglers, contact jugglers, diabolo etc can meet. So feel free to bring friends who may be interested.
Night starts at 6pm for all those who are keen to learn. Fire starts after dark 7.00 - 8ish till late!
So.... the location is Queen Victoria Gardens
St. Kilda Road – opposite 'National Gallery of VIC' (Old Arts Gallery with spire)
The grassed area near the three raised palm trees. (Look out for the bronze statue hammer thrower)
With only a 5 minute walk over the princess bridge from Flinders Street station.
Here's the map
https://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...360&ie=UTF8
*WINTER LOCATION*
Under the Princess bridge (Southbank side). Where the Southbank Sundey market happens.

Hmmhmmmhmmmhmmmhmmm *supressed laughter*
"What could be better than twirling to cheesy jazz?"
My very own A.D.I.D.A.S. dance for Flynt...not better, but just as good.
Will be performing it this weekend, if anyone is opposed or digusted by swearing and pelvic thrusting, you should leave for about 2.5 mins

Ya! A shindig!
I want to have a rubix cube shindig involving everyone showing up wearing three different colours ;
ex. Blue trousers, red t-shirt, yellow jumper,
and by morning everyone has got to be wearing the ~same~ colour.

Petey, you are the best. I have pirate songs stuck in my head, and scabbing a few lessons from you was well worth my muscle aches.
Counting down the days to sunday.
