Contact without dance is like sex without wiggling.
A) it does feel as good
B) it does not look as good on film

I wish you'd posted this before Chrismas as I was down there for a week. I really wanted to get away and spin with people!
I'll let you know when I'm down next (I come down about twice a year)
There's too many home fires burning and not enough trees

I really keen to meet up for a spin with people in taunton......it would be great if we could get a regular thing going - there are quite a few spinners in taunton but they seem to spend most of their time hiding.....taunton people are generally rather apathetic when you actually try to organise things!!

If you pop over to this thread, there are regular meets in Vivary a couple of times a month.
[Old link]
Also, some of us are going to be in Vivary tomorrow (Tuesday 21/06) from about 4ish so you are welcome to join us.
You don't want to be spinning with fire until you are really sure that you are ready. Its best to get some fire poi and practice with them unit for a while so that you can get used to them as they are a lot different to spin with than tailed poi or sock poi.
If you mean the globallz from poipoi, they really are a waste of money! there are other glow poi about that are a lot better, if you do a search on LED or glow poi, you will find lots of info about them.
Happy spinning
