And Linda's "surprise" birthday present has already been used biggrin
(Somehow she guessed I was going to give her some poi...She just didn't know it was possible to get custom made giraffe ones wink )

You think it's cold there?? It's been snowing for the last four days here, got down to about -5 degrees yesterday! Too cold for spinning even!

Glad to hear you're all braving the weather better than me. Don't envy you the kareoke, though.

If you're not confused, you're not thinking about things hard enough.

ubblol it is... we hit -4 last week! we're really representing in every clime at the moment aren't we?

as for the kareoke, that's old hat... last night was psy-trance in The Star! bounce ubbloco we went on a recruitment drive and got about 7 new numbers to add to the list... well done boys! biggrin i also got a wicked picture of keith looking like he was mid orgasm while he was spinning... ubblol oh and for the record keith, because you never come online and read anything ---> you're a censored tongue

marnie, was a pleasure to meet you! apologies for my lack of conversational skills, i have a short attention span... hug

so anyway... we're gonna move inside for the winter. (yay!) back room of the Stoke pub. uv cannon, music, heating and fun. £3 contribution to the cost of the room. not sure when exactly we're gonna start but next weekend sounds good to me... watch this space for confirmation! ubbrollsmile

Hello children. Just to say that this Thursday poi is going back to its roots. Yes back to YORK ROAD CAR PARK top floor!!!!!! If its an amazingly warm night then we can go outside on the grassy area. We have some of the old people coming down for this hopefully so it should be a good night. Plans at the moment are to meet in the pub first but I'm still waiting to hear which one so I recommend anyone reading this should just go straight to the car park at 8:30ish onwards and we'll be there. Happy Thursday..... bounce bounce

It is a juggly meet, but it's a dark one too...



I'll be back down in a few weeks time for some firey fun and games... biggrin



EDIT: Hang on... I know nothing about the car park... Does that mean it's a non acrylic friendly, concrete ground? AHHH!!!

To be honest the Sunday one is better for juggling due to light but Thursdays are good for a laugh - you don't *have* to do poi!! I've spoken to Tom online a bit, I'll talk to him about it. Gabe, you must come to at least one!!!

Ed, don't worry the car park is concrete but to my knowledge we're only doing one night there which will be this Thurs. Kind of a reunion for the old people if they can make it so we thought we'd bring it back to where it started for the night. Will be back at the river after this one.

Yes, that was definately a good night at the car park. Security was nice, you never know, eventually he might have a quick spin on his rounds like Asif did. Yay to nice security!! I'm putting a pick up in my gallery now as I don't know how to put it in the post.

Next one will be the last Thursday of the month and I'm not giving up on G & Vev and Luke....
