I did note over the weekend that it was very nice to be surrounded to be surrounded by lovely fairy spinny girls.
the funny thing was all i could think about was staff spinning
Was wondering how many people got footage?
we got a bit ofthe workshops and some spiny fun. I think dec got some fire on saturday night too. Soon as i get the tapes i'll have something to put up.
Does anyone mind being in a Video?
We probably managed to get a bit of everyone so let me know if you want me to cut the drops out which is pretty much what im going to do with any footage of myself
*edit* i just remembered there was mention of some dvdness so i'll hold off on the video production till i know more. i'd offer to send over our footage but steves fancy camera kicked ass so i doubt it would add anything

I have no idea! Probably what Mech said. Although isn't that when you were asking me (to my huge surprise) how to do the evil thread the needle thing? Which I never got around to trying to explain. (Still notquite got it, bruises too sore to practice!)
Boobs do get in the way of doubles though, so does my bum, but it's probably just my rubbish planes. However, I appear to have lost a fair bit of weight over the course of the weekend cos my work trousers are loose now. Yay! *note to self - stop being slack and go to the gym!*

Coming from the man who could do all those shoulder rolls and spin a hoop on a staff? I think in comparison you'll find the throws easy
I've heard it mentioned in passing by Rob so I guess it is being considered.
