I think the cold is definitely good enough reason not to be outside! Plus now it's cold and it's wet!I only spin about once a week, indoors! Otherwise it's way too cold!So don't kick yourself too hard smile

I came across all sorts of alien phrases when I moved up to Yorkshire a few years back... 'NESH' being one of them.In Yorkshirish it means someone who cant stand the cold. So I guess youre 'nesh' then..??I have a good gripe about the cold as well now and again. Having been born and brought up in hot countries, I dont particularly like it. One of the quickest ways to warm up though, given the opportunity, (for me anyway) is to have a damn good spin. (Saves on heating bills I find)ps: praps 'ol Soops could use his Krypton power and blow a little El Neenyo this way?? wink (But then again.. he may be too tired) tongue------------------Kato

Just sending some warmth you're way.THE SUN"Come and I shall tell thee first of all the beginning of the sun and the sources from which have sprung all the things we now behold -- the earth and the bil- lowy sea, the damp vapor and the titan air that binds his circle fast round all things." -Empedocles5th Century BC Greek In archaic times, people perceived the sun, in its shining prime and glory, giver of heat and light and life, to be the effulgent force of the female, a passionate aspect of the Great Mother, the versatile Jill-of-all-Trades who issues forth and supports whole life. She was the Heaven-Illuminating Goddess, Ameratsu Omikame, in Japan, and the Queen of Heaven and Earth, Arinna, in Mesopotamia. She was Yhi, Sun Woman, to the Arunta of Australia. She was known in Antolia, Siberia and Native America. Tribal northern Europe knew Her, too. The Germans called Her Sunna, as did the Norwegians. In Scandinavia, She was Glory-of-Elves, or Sol. The Eddas say that on Doomsday, She will bear a daughter who will be the new sun, the next creation, the luminous world to come. She was Sol, as well, to the Celts who also called her Sul or Sulis. Her celebrations took place on hilltops overlooking springs. A major ceremonial site was Silbury Hill (Sulisbury Hill) adjacent to the springs at Bath, once called Aquae Sulis. The Romans dedicated altars at Bath, sacred to Sul Minerva. The Great Mother in ancient India was Aditi, the mother of the 12 spirits of the zodiac, the Adityas who would "reveal their light at Doomsday". The Mahanir- vanatantra describes the sun as a golden garment of light which graces the Great Goddess. "The sun, the most glorious symbol in the physical world, is the mayik vesture of Her who is `clothed with the sun.'" "I praise the disc of the rising sun, Red as a parrot's beak, sharp-rayed, Friend of the lotus grove, An earring for the Goddess of the East." ---------------------------Round and round and round they go when they stop nobody knows.Arc. shocked

during the winter i spin inside with two dead glowsticks (i only spin glow right now, but hoping to move into fire this summer) because its the same weight for practice as for display(or showing off or whatever you call it). Just a Thought...

Wicked post ArcI'm feeling particularly virtuous at the mo as I've been spinning more than ever over December/Jan. Why? Cos I've finally plucked up the courage to go spin at school in my free periods, (of which there are many)regardless of having an audience or not.The result? I was offered the sports hall, by the P.E dept who saw me spinning, to use at any time there's nobody in there to spin in properly (with music!) and I can use it to teach others too! How good is that? It's done wonders curing my quite obvious shyness and aversion to spinning in front of others and also allowed me to get some of my mates interested.Hooray....now I have some people to spin with grin grinI must admit I haven't been spinning outside much though..........

------Actually frown, there was more sunny in our winter than we ahve had this summer. Just befor exmas we had a record 17 weeks of having rain every weekend in the middle of summer.It's put a major dampner not only on practicing, but has cost me well over half of what i normally earn over summer from paid performing and busking...I can't wait for winter to come back at the moment...------------------Charles (INFERNO)newdolbel@hotmail.comhttps://juggling.co.nz
