Hello there! Have just discovered this forum, didn't realise there was so many other poi peeps in Cardiff! Will most definitely be up for any poi gatherings... but probably not for a few weeks cos of [censored] exams!! Might make it down to that circus skills thing off City Road on thursday though... depends how much work I get done!

Anyway just wanted to say Yo! Hopefully see some of you crazy monkeys around!! wink x
