Sounds like you're gonna have one amazing adventure mister bender!

How's your head treating you? nervous? excited? both?

My state of mind is not yours to define!

There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

A tiny village on a cemetary on the outskirts of Gia Rai, Baclieu province.
The small mound in the foreground is what beloved ones are buried in until the family can afford better graves if at all. This is a big deal in rural Vietnam, where ancestor worship is taken seriously. I was born 5 minutes away from this spot.

A very special thanks to Josh, Kate n co for pulling of an even better gathering this time around.
Clearly, their work has paid off and there was a *definite* acceleration in skill - oz twirlers have something to look forward to in the calendar to come together and skill swap the insane amount of talent that has boiled since the last gathering.
My hat goes off to contact chris (Cirque Mystique) who was leet last year... and now is absolutely killah on contact singles, doubles, triples and poi.

Thanks also to my work that needed me to fly back tonight... missing out on the wikkid 15 act fireshow. :weeps:

further images and perhaps some video to be uploaded to my website's CG 2005 gallery

Hey bender, was great seeing you in melb. All the randomness of festivals and running into each other for 3 seconds at a time was weird. Or is that just you?
You can collect more cutlery and mugs from me soon.
Hows the drum? haha, i am totally connected to your drum through my skills as its tightener...?!
Are you coming to woodford?
Exodus...... of course! ???
Rainbow... oh der
