I have added a few more bits to the website, hopefully next week i will be online again so i can find some, webspace for the domain name. i think the domain name is fairly good www.fieldsoffire.uni.cc plus its completly free.
i have already done loads of work on a flash website, but not having access to the www its imposible to upload "library computers don't allow ftp" anyway hopefully that should be all ok next week when i get back online..........

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe: attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain...

ta for turning up firenix even in the dull drab weather
good effort and glad you got back okay. made good time too by the looks of it.
yeah lots more people turned up later but the meet was a little calamitous due to an improvised dipping bucket which spilt all our parrafin after one burn.
still looking at the weather should be a lovely lovely good one so
bring any and all things that may be of use all of them
im gonna start up a lost property box as well, did we ever find out whose those spare drums belonged too??
seeing you all later.

Hey hey guys, I'm 18, live in Nottingham, and recently started poi (about a month ago), and I'm looking to for some peeps to spin with. Dopehats666 from combust in leicester told me about you guys. So, yeah, I was wondering if it'd be alright for me to maybe come along sometime and pick up a few tips, shake off my clumsy newbishness, and meet some other spinners?

Ta for the PM, although I'm not sure why you didn't get mine, I'm positive I sent one
Heh, so true about the weather. I was gonna come the last two weeks, but didn't bother. I mean, normal weather all week then suddenly thunder and lightning? I mean, what?
All going well I'll come along next week, so hopefully see you then
