Well, we survived the last one. Some of my body hair has grown back, and Geoffrey should be out of hospital by January... so why not do it all over again? Lyndon would have wanted us to... and I think Isobel is still in the park somewhere anyway...

For those of you who weren't at the last firey fandango, I shall be throwing wide the doors of my (borrowed) Sevenoaks home, and inviting anyone and everyone to come and spend the weekend. There will be lots of paraffin, lots of spinners, lots of all sorts of things in fact. Including baked products. Y'all are welcome to come for as long or as short a time as you feel like - stay for a week or just pop in for a spin over the weekend. It's easy to get to and there's plenty of bed space. Or floor space, unless they bring even more lap-tops than last time...

For more details and some critics' reviews see 'Kent 28th - 30th Nov', but bear in mind that this one is going to be a whole lot better. There will be:
weavesmileyMore bed space! (well, at least one extra bed)
weavesmileyMore Michal Kahn! (author of 'Poispinning', mentor, and all round poi goddess)
weavesmileyMore baked products! (going to start baking any day now... fill up the attic)
weavesmileyMore weird stuff going on in the garage! (see 'Pounce... parental discretion is advised)
weavesmileyMore working computers! (It's fixed it's fixed at last at last!)
weavesmileyMore cute poi boys!
weavesmileyMore foxy poi chicks!

So write it in your diaries, tingle with excitement, stock up on paraffin and get ready to set the town on fire! (note to Big Brother: this is a metaphor)

See you in January... ubbloco

so i'm wondering if we'd actually be able to raise the money by that weekend or perhaps you can have another party later on that i can make it to. hrm. i'm still in awe that you are even trying to raise money for me!

eek <--- in awe face

and i will have more money mid-january so i should be able to contribute more then to my own flight fund.

hrm.

I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.

Hell, I was just short of entertainment. Watching you and Mand at play in the garage has got to be worth something.

If January is out of the question, there will be other parties. One's that don't clash with the NIPP. tongue

Well, if I can put you down for a fiver then we've cleared the half way point already! Think of it as an investment UCOF - we'll make a fortune selling the videos of Mand & Pounce over the net... wink

And balloon modelling! (possibly?)




I'm very, very tempted to turn up for a while, in which case there will indeed be balloon modelling biggrin

I've just got to work out the logistics of it all, and I'm there smile

But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

Joe - I'm finally sorted in Manchester and will be down in London on the 11th Jan. Can't get there any earlier I'm afraid as I have to be in Glasgow on the 10th.

I'll give you a shout nearer the time to see about staying for a couple of days and milking the dregs of your Jamboree.

Take it easy fella

- D

p.s. any of the class expected to turn up?

It it weren't for my opposable thumb I'd have had that trick!

Apologies Mein Host - I'm only booked to be in London for 12th and 13th Jan at work but will certainly be down for more parties and get-togethers.

We've gotta chat through who's up for Burning Man next year too!

frodo go to www.burningman.com and anyone can go if they are willing to pay the ticket price and willing to be self sufficient in the middle of the desert for about a week, with 30,000 of their closest freak friends.

biggrin It is a fabulous event.
