Hello, hello and welcome to the thread for all Irish fire dancers, spinners, object manipulators, drummers, musicians and anyone else interested in these arts in Ireland.



This thread was started nearly a couple of years ago now... and it's since grown to include more people, gatherings, events, fun and games than we had thought possible.



And it's still growing - so if you're new to the arts, or want to meet up with any of us, please post at the end of this thread to introduce yourself... or send me a PM with your email address and I'll add your name to our mailing list.



There are spinners, dancers and manipulators all over the country, and you'll find lots of them on here... don't be shy, we're nice biggrin



So welcome, and hope to see you soon hug

Babe, just live your own and make sure you don't waste the chances you're given that's the only way to deal with the loss of others.

Much love and cuddles i'll give you the real deal when I see you next... Wednesday ?

Crossing fingers that my lil car is fixed by tomorrow.

The mechanic has it now. He's had a pretty crappy weekend too, so I didn't give him a hard time about the state of my wheel.

It's booked in for another MOT on Thursday.


Sigh.

sorry but the lure of money when I'm in the unfortunate position of having to buy a new car is somewhat tempting....
