THIS WORKSHOP IS NOW CANCELLED 
The Extremely Lovely Swinger's workshop is back! the likelihood of free coffee + tea (no promises tho)
poi and staff and diabolo and juggling and, ahh you know. All that rubbish.
fire area. yes, fire. That hot stuff.
floor, walls, a toilet, all the luxuries.
an incredibly relaxed and creative environment thats a joy to spin in i went yesterday, and it was most fun but it needs more poiple to poipulate it.
That's where you come in...
Suggested Donation - £3
303 - 305 Burdett Road
It's an old printing press next to the canal, really easy to spot.
it's close to Limehouse Station (Docklands Light Railway from Bank) and Mile End (District, Hammersmith & City or Central Lines).
It starts about 8pm although you could probably turn up a bit earlier and it carries on for... a bit. Everyone left about 11:30pm yesterday to catch last tubes.
Mr Smallboy would be here to agree with all this if he hadn't stopped posting on HoP
So i've constructed a sock puppet that looks eerily similar to him to agree instead.

I am a sock puppet that looks eerily like Smallboy, and Fairie Ben's Swingers Workshop really is a somewhat cracking event full of japes and tomfoolery. I'll be down there regularly every Thursday, as will my harem of wives
Thank you smallboy sockpuppet, that was perfect.
i will seeing you be there

How can you miss London?
it's massive!
Just take a good run-up from Newcastle headed south, and as long as you're not out by more than a couple of degrees you're bound to hit it.
oh yeah, nearly forgot... *bump*

Always been my favourite juggling workshop. Good to see Ben and co. are back at it, launching objects through the air and encouraging others to do so.

Hex - jugglas obviously welcome, but the ceiling is probably a bit low for 11 balls
UCOF - no, he isn't that twisty simon, he's a different twisty simon who you've probably also met at some point. That confused me too.
Just to warn people -
This is now a Limited Edition Workshop
As it's now likely that the organisers will be obliged to relocate in the next few weeks
So get some Swingersing in now while you can...

they're not out already but Sam said that they had to be out by next week. If only I had called Ben to see if it was still on last night instead of just turning up...ended up in Highgate instead

yup. Ben found a new place last weekend
(but neglected to tell anone the workshop was cancelled until i phoned him yesterday to make sure it was on
)Ben's new place sounds really nice, but i doubt he'll run a workshop there.
He's probably pretty distracted by his impending dadhood...
