Well, we had a good spin and learnt some new stuff (mostly off matt).

We were one man down...Eccles..?

It's better to burn out than to fade away

That's just about the time we left

Nevermind then. There's always next time!

You've only just done enrolment?...wow, UCE are even more disorganised than we are...

It's better to burn out than to fade away

aye, fine by me. lectures run from 9-11 on that day and that's it for me so any time really.

I kinda picked up a fountain-y shaped staff combination already done pretty much entirely behind the back (hip level pass then round to a above-the-head level pass)

Still gotta practice the basics a lot though, I get uneven rotations on each side...oh well, not bad for 30 mins of staff...ever!

*Resists temptation to poi instead of attend lectures*

Why can't learning subjects feel like learning poi

Frustrating cos you can't understand it and makes you wanna kill the teacher?

Seems pretty much spot on to me...

Gah! I can't make it this Thursday because my parents are visiting me and I can't fob them off again (yes, AGAIN) because I fobbed them off like the day before they were meant to visit, that I was going to Nottingham and they weren't too happy about it

Oh yeah, I've kinda gotta go because I've gotta pick up my digi cam so hopefully I can work out how to get uber fire poi pics

Keep me posted on the possible Sunday spins though, I'd definitely wanna go. Ta

Geologists do it in the dirt................

*raises hand for week on Sunday*

If you can get an indoor place that'd be pretty cool, fire's over rated anyway

Let's relight this forum

Wow, Birmingham seems to be the place to be!

Do you guys remember Talie - the girl that came with me to Play? Cos she lives in B'ham and has gotten really into poi since Play, so do ya think she can join your gatherings?

PS. maus, have you still got my bandana, I still want that back at some point

AAARRRGGGHHH!!! My giant stick broke!!! In two!!! My stick broke in two!!!

Could somebody stop the room please... I'd like to get off

Still haven't got a fixed venue yet I don't think..got some possibilities but nothing concrete. Such crappy weather today, with the rain and humidity too. Have fun tomorrow you guys who are meeting at Aston. I'm being my parents' tour guide for the day

Will definitely be wherever on Sunday as long as I get directions that are easy to follow

Good to see that more and more people are appearing in Brum

easiest is train destination Redditch - platform 11b every 15 minutes or so, it's the third stop out then the top of the road (Selly Oak Station)

talk to people who are going to be about for timing. Like Rob.

hah, i would've, but they were offering to pay for lunch and as a student i couldn't really resist...i even left my stomach empty since yesterday lunchtime so i could cram today

also got a new digital camera now, so next time someone's making a burn, i'll play around with it so i can get some decent trails.
