Hello anaya, Tis true there is a bunch of us that got to the juggling club in town . . . though haven't seen Non there she is a bit on and off about when she comes along, she still hasn't seen the new place atall . . . as I promissed Anodyne I fill sort a map out . . . . hang on a tick . . .



on and off?? methinks using the present tense verb 'go' for my attendance at juggling club is a bit ambitious. I am.... slack..... i admit but i can't recall anything important that needs doing this thursday..... so maybe, maybe....

Hello ananya! are you at cardiff uni or uwic? xorba is also in uni in cardiff, but uwic methinks. how rude of halls to give you no garden space though...

so everyone's going on thursday huh? nows you're all trying to make me feel like a lazy rubbish slacker, i guess i'll have to come, but feel free to bug me on thursday matty, just to make sure

i wasn't aware there was a rivalry of anykind, but then i've never been to uni in cardiff, it was more of a location/social issue, as i kind of presume that people from cardiff don't really know the people at uwic?...

Matty - how do you loose Rossco? You must have been trying - but then that makes no sense as why would anyone try to loose the lovely Rossco? Perhaps a game of hide and seek went wrong...

Maybe someone stole him along with my Radiohead and Specials CDs!

Feed me Chocolate!!! Feed me NOW!

DONT DO DRUGS THERE BAD FOR YOU.
SO GIVE THEM ALL TO ME AND I WILL GET RID OF THEM FOR YOU!

yes 8 pages, those were the days.... we procrastinate a lot here... it takes roughly that number of pages to make a meet.... however we are still i believe breaking the Meet Others thread record, go wales!!

hi pitman, i do remember you, although that must have been in... march as i've been away for six months and come back still poi-ing? go to juggling club, scroll up for further details.....

well we haven't figured that out yet.... the only way is to get a UWICee in a room with a Cardiffee and have you fight it out.... I never suggested it was a rivalry anyway, you all keep mentioning, maybe you secretly want one! *imagines city wide rioting in cardiff uni/uwic disagreement, and i'd be the one who caused it....*

Juggling club is run by no fit state circus, 8-10pm thursday nights, �2, it's a hall in which to do poi, or juggle, or staff, or unicycle, or all of them with other people who are also doing those things... and that is basically that... matt posted directions somewhere up a bit, last page or the one before....
