WE'RE SLACK DON'T BELEAVE ANY ON THIS THREAD (apart from maybe the most recent post)
If you want to meet up with any smelly hippy fire spinners in bristol post something to ask when and where people are meeting up. most people are quite nice and will happily help you or if thats not your thing ask me and i'll abuse you for no reason
p.s. Normally we meet up on sunday 2:30-5pm at the Student union, Queens Road, Clifton (But this only runs in term time)
Oh yeah b4 you ask no you don't need to be a student

Hi Guys,
I've moved to Bath now so i won't be out and about during the week. However, if anyone does organise a weekend meet then i shall more than likely show my face.....But hey, if any of you fancy a ten minute train journey then we could always organise a spin in Victoria Park or something???
Catch you guys later....

Hey Gayle - will be at your party this week - where's it to? You should check out a pub in Larkhall - the Rose and Crown ask for Mark P - he's awesome with poi.
See you soon,
Stoo.

Helloooo everybody!
I just recently started playing around with poi, and as it's my birthday tomorrow my brother bought me some lovely fire-wicks to compiment my current tennis balls! My only problem is that I have no paraffin. Does anybody know where I can get hold of some in Bristol? Do you think Clifton or Cotham Hardware would have some?
Also, are you guys mostly part of Circusoc? Room for one more person?
Cheers,

Clifton and Cotham hardware also both stock it.
Circusoc always welcomes new members!!!

Got some paraffin from Cotham Hardware after I'd gotten over my birthday food poisoning! Haven't stopped spinning since! Am getting concerned for the welfare of my beard - I don't think it likes fire.
So where and when does Circusoc meet?

If it's still the same as it used to be it's inthe Student Union Building in Clifton, upstairs. Or, if it's sunny, in Victoria Gardens just around the corner.
Anyone fancy meeting up/still around on 28th May? I'll be spending the weekend in Bristol and currently have a poi shaped window in my diary

For those not in Falmouth......
.......it's that time of year again, Bristol Harbour Festival has arrived and I'll be spending most of the weekend on our boat drinking gin and spinning for the locals.
So anyone fancy meeting up on Saturday? The boat is parked (moored, whatever) by the Arnolfini which is only a few minutes walk to all the weekend action.
They'll probably have the circus stage again so I'll be around there somewhere for sure.
My phone number, should you want it, can be found HERE on the home page
