Here it is folks, you've been incredibly patient, and let's be honest, you knew we wouldn't let you down.



Fal5 will not be taking place in Falmouth, instead the ever resourceful Ms Maus has secured us a sweeet spot to stay. It's a little further west, but be sure it's worth the tiny bit of extra effort.



The dates are Friday 14th April - Monday (Tuesday) 17th (18th) April.



We will be staying here and that means we will be spending a lot of time on this beach.



Campsite checks in at the bargain price of £4 per person per night, and they have the usual shower/toilet blocks.



YOU DO NOT NEED TO TELEPHONE THE CAMPSITE TO BOOK



The Wiki list (so's we know who's coming) is here



Nearest town and train station is Hayle so make sure not to go to my house by mistake, as I won't be there. biggrin



Any questions?

Matty, thanks for the lift, you're a genuine star (and not at all an unimpressive spinner!)

Hello Morwenna...
Good to see you got back safely after hours of being cooped up with me in the car...

Were they actually poi or did you actually murder another HOPper to get his/her brains but misplaced it so you're pretending they're poi to see if anyone picked it up....?

I'm sure Common Sense, Dignity, and Morality are missing Spelling and Punctuation and are looking to get back to the Hunch you left for them in Gwithian.

Wow, that was ace. Fro some reason it reminded lots and lots of Falmouth II confused Anyone else think that while they were there?



Thanks soooo much to Mags and Maus for the super work you did before and during Falmouth5 hug Mags you're a gorgous hunk with a cheeky smile, and Kells you're a sweet angel with the softest comfyest tent in the whole world!! Being in your tent was how I'd actually imagine cloud 9 to be biggrin



The campsite is wonderful, I can't imagine a better place for it to be at; the facilities, the location, the size, the shop, the pizzas and the pub were all brilliant biggrin



I tried sooo hard to get home to see Edan before he went to sleep and missed him by 5 minutes frown Darn that infernal traffic!! But he was really happy when I woke him up this morning before I went to work and gave him all the hugs and kisses that everyone passed one to him. hug2



We saw various HoPpers in the jams on the way home, including Oli & Co who ignored our frantic waves rolleyes



Favourite moments -

Spinning more fire on Saturday night than I have at all the Falmouths put together ubblove weavesmiley



Meeting soooo many new poeple ubblove



Re-meeting the many who's names I had forgotten since PLAY rolleyes



Noticing just how much the general level of all spinners new and old has rocketed in the past year or two ubblove



Cheating the tide on Saunday morning, although I reckon we could have let it lap our heels before we'd have moved if it was a touch warmer!



Mags' little blue present at about 1am Sunday morning ubbangel



Huggin all my favourite peeps that I haven't seen for aaaages hug





Saddest moments -

It being the penultimate Falmouth ubbcrying boo hoo (although it was made up for by hearing about Hellfire! bounce bounce2 bounce )



Saying goodbye yesterday and wishing I was at BJC this week.



Having to spend 12 hours in a car with no f*#king stereo (the tape deck died and Leisa snapped the radio arial off just as we left frown )



Let's relight this forum ubblove

Dixie - think of it this way -

You put so much into your spinning (and it shows) that other motor functions such as walking are bound to suffer as a result... biggrin

Get well soon anyway...
