Hello!
Due to some gentle coaxing from C@ntus, i have finally made an intro thread! Tada!
I know some of you already know but for those who don't, heres a little bit about me.
I'm 18 and have been spinning poi for about a year and a half and been juggling for about 6 months and i'm just starting to learn bounce ball juggling which, by the way, is much harder than it looks. I've tried most of the juggly/spinny arts but found that only poi and juggling can really hold my attention long enough to learn anything, but i will persevere.
Lets see, what else, I'm on my gap year at the moment and am going to be starting uni at brookes in september so if there are any oxford spinners
Thats about in really, except to tell everyone to come to Falmouth 3!!!

What is this Falmouth 3 of which you speak (and yet somehow fail to supply a link to) ?
What are you going to study at uni?
What is your favourite colour?
When are you going to give up juggling and get a proper hobby?

She knows what falmouth is though Will. She lives in Cornwall for chrissake!!
I was just meaning that if she wants to encourage folks to go, then she should at least supply a link.
Tis only fair.
Plus i was being sarcastic...

C@ntus - I'll be studying English Lit and Publishing at uni and my fave colour is purple... or blue... or possibly green, i get so confused.
When they declare world peace and mean it, then i will stop juggling
Will - Spag bol and a massage? at the same time?? Interesting...

Beth has antlers and several noses y'know. That's why she hasn't got a gallery. She's afraid we'll all point at her and call her "10 nosey the antler girl!"

Is there a trend for people to do late intro's all of a sudden?

If I find someone lacking an intro and/or a photo gallery, then I am prone to harangue.
If, however, I find someone with some with some whipped egg whites then i more likely to meringue...

Hey Beth, good to see you finally got an intro going!
Clearly, Cantus is better at gentle persuasion than I, as you took no notice of my pressing you to do one!
At least I now have another place to send you random stuff!
And, how come you haven't used your intro to plug your upcoming vacationing????
My state of mind is not yours to define!
There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

Heya, 'bout time you made an intro!
Beth may not have a gallery, but if the old HoP galleries are still accessible, there are pics of her in mine...
