ello to all sheffield poi and fire spinners out there, as i can see there are quite a few that use the bulletin board here! recent talks with several poi'ers that i know, we would like to meet up on sunday 30th december @ endcliffe park (ecclesall road)for an afternoon/evening of poi and fire frolics in the park to celebrate the festive seasons and see out the year before the mad new year parties where ever you may be going! basically just to have fun, meet other ppl that are unfortunate not to frequent headcharge or planet zogg and so we can all learn some new moves etc...so what do you all think? can you make it? post you replies here and i will put up more details..
thank funk for poi!

PK my good man.. how nice to have you on board the HOP bandwagon !!The poi-in-the-park idea is fantastic. I can bring a fairly large portable music making contraption so we could have a good spin for however long it takes and then all ooze over to mine (a 1.67 minute walk) for drinks, munchies and whatever else materialises (Hmmm...??). I've got the house to myself so theres no problem with people staying over (if thier legs are in no fit state to carry them home!) Howzat sound??ps: I will only be on the web today and Monday so please feel free to call my mobile or send me a text (for those that have my number); and for those that dont, please e-mail me today or Monday.Alternatively, if anyone who is going to Headcharge tonight wants to come along, make yourself known to me and Ill give you more info then..Like I said, theres the option of drinks, munchies and stuff at mine(+ room to spin with uv & music) and room for cabbaged out space monkeys to kip!Any takers... please feel free.. ------------------Kato[This message has been edited by Mushinkato (edited 21 December 2001).][This message has been edited by Mushinkato (edited 21 December 2001).]

Theres about 3-4 poi ppl down here in Leicester i think it would be a good idea to get together with some of the peeps from Sheffield. Though i dont have a clue where sheffield is i know it is in England somewhere!!Leicester is a central location and there are a few good places to poi as we have quite alot of parks and stuff?!?!?So if any of u lot wanna get together just email me!!!------------------www.fire4hire.co.uk - in constructionwww.ampcast.com/djmdma

i have had interest from leicester for our gatherings sadly it was after the one we just did.sheffield isnt far will take 45mins approx from leicester in a car, just up the M1. sheffield has a very large juggleing/poi etc base there are so many ppl up here in to it, so i think regular meets are very in order quite a few of us run websites too and its allways a good time for getting to meet new faces and get more pics for galleries. we had ppl come up from nottingham, leeds, chesterfield for last months meet so the more the merrier grin my website will be up hopefuly by the end of this week or next with a very large collection of pics and the odd movie so check it out send me your pics etc i will post them up! www.vain-ego.com/into-the-flames pkvain-ego email: pk@vain-ego.com grin grin grin grin

Not everyone is better than you at headcharge Katio. Although I don't believe I've seen you I can quite assuredly say that you're better than me at poi.Not sure if I can make your gathering again PK. As you appear to have put it on a Sunday - again. And, whilst I am in Sheffield that weekend (birthday Headcharge and all that), unless some miracle occurs I will either have gone home or be thoroughly exhausted by Sunday.------------------C@ntusThere's only one way of life and that's your own.

You're right Orange... thats VERY strange..????? I think it must have been the alignment of the planets or something..?? PK... do you think having the next poi in the park on the same weekend as Headcharge is a good idea..?? It will mean two long journeys in one weekend for a lot of folk.. not to mention work on Monday morning for most.I thought we mentioned something back along about having it on a weekend in-between Headcharge and Zogg.. and on a Saturday too. That way people would'nt be burnt out (if you'll pardon the pun) and skint from the night before. There is also a lot more on offer on a Saturday night for afters if people still want to go out and party.. (like Probe at the Lescar for example.. plenty good trancy/mini-Zogg type stuff))Devonshire Green is a good idea though.. plenty of innocent bystanders/spectators to impress... Forgive me if I sound negative cuz Im not being.. I just think the Sunday after Headcharge isnt such a wise idea.. If the populous feel different then I will bow down in humble rectitude and say no more..thoughts please everyone...ps: I had thought of Saturday the 19th..???------------------Kato[This message has been edited by Mushinkato (edited 07 January 2002).]

If i get any money for my birthday (it costs me £18.40 return on the train to get to sheffield) then I might turn up.It looks like there is no Zogg this month (in fact there isn't because I got an email from Dionysus this morning) so I think I'm staying in this weekend.So what's on the weekend of the 19th? I don't do poi y'know. I hope this won't be a problem.
