Hey Dom
Balloonski is a bit of a no hoper at the moment and I dont see it getting back off the ground so its a good idea to get your stuff elsewhere,what do you want?Whatever it is i should be able to get it for you or at least know the best place to get it(inside info from the former Balloonski manager)so if you need a hand mail me.
Bad news as far as i know no fire tonight But thumbs up for next tue,hope to see you there!
Also dom are you a kiwi or just visiting ?
Mail me if you wana have a jam or a
anyways see you soon!

if you are in NZ now, you should DEFINITELY join us at the new Zealand juggling Convention from the 6/9th of March... WAHOOHEY IT IS TOMORROW... Annette posted something about it a few weeks ago for more information
