Hi all... I am a complete newbie to poi, fire twirling and anything/everything related. In fact, I'll only even see it in real life for the 1st time next Friday (making it down to the Moon Fest on north side of Brissie).

Toys: Acoustic guitar, Classical guitar, 3 electric guitars, 2 djembes.
Hobbies other than the obvious: Music, Reading, Keeping fit (hmmm, not so much of the keeping fit, actually)
Education: Did Bachelor of Science majoring in Computer Science and Pure Maths. Then Grad Dip Appl Computing... then started a research masters, but gave it away when life got in the way.

Favorie ice cream flavor(s): Vanilla.
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella? (please choose one...this is important as it is essentially this site's equivalent of stating your religion...we have religious wars, crusades, cathedrals to Nutella, all that.)
Definitely... vegemite.

my "hands" greatly appreciate your attention, bek...
mmm, sweets... just had breaky, but still got room for sweets... paul: I did indeed make it to juggle! ye, I missed a couple before last night too... so much to do, etc... had a minor "incident" part way through... let's just say that isolated buzzsaws now scare me...
and yes... I was tiddly... that's the point @ which you're being very silly (ok, more silly than normal), but not yet incapacitated (apart from the whole falling over the ironing board thing, but it *was* dark...)
