I ws hoping someone was going to start something soon! I'm not going to be around until august (maybe), but after that, I'll be there! Have you tried putting a notice up in Avalon? They might be able to help with getting people interested.

yay ppl have replied. i can drive, but dont have my car in portsmouth when im at uni. damn lack of parking plus its too much hassle. o and unless ur spinning till like 3am theres no point as i have lacrosse training on tuesday eves. completely forgot about avalon, spoke to the random dude in hedonic who said i could put flyers up, plus he'd pass on my number to one of the guys who used to meet up with the last lot of spinners - but no call as of yet.
slowly but surely it looks like it could happen, need to hassle ppl at uni now seen the odd spinner/juggler about.

Used to, before we lost use of the workshop last october
. Haven't seen anyone of them since, kept meaning to start up a fire night but never quite got around to it. There were some pretty good spinners there - Chad and Dyllan in particular. I don't know if they would still be around, tho.

Christof,
Jim the guy who owns Hedonic is a mate of mine and was probably going to pass it to onother friend who lives in Pompi, Chris, he's funnily enough coming up to London this weekend, but he's not on HOP so if you PM me your details i'll pass them to him for you, if you still want to sort something out.
Myself and Alienfox are down in Pompy at least once a month(normally London based) and some times the lovely BamBam and Hels Bells join us as well. It would be great to meet up at some point for a spin in Old Portsmouth or Portchester Castle.
You to Frodo......
