Hello wonderous people of Oz...



As of 18th of September shall be making my way towards your part of the southern hemisphere for an 8month visit (and a long-needed break from the UK)



Main reason is to visit all you lovely people down there for major spinn-age and working for a living to keep me there as long as possible.



My main concrete plans are Melbourne Juggling Convention in er... Melbourne... and Common Ground in Adelaide. Otherwise it's pretty much a tumbleweed's life for me until May. I plan to visit at least Sydney and Brisbane (and that common tourist trap Alice Springs)



As far as I know I will be staying with Pineapple Pete from MJC till Common Ground.



If anyone has any other events I may be interested or if anyone can accommodate me whilst on my travels do let me know.



Hope to see you guys down there!



Peace Out xx

heeheee... no worries re: tuesday... for me, it's as much an excuse for an extra bbq per week, as anything else, so I'll always be there regardless of the levels of interest or lack thereof...



bring your antispin/doubles/isolation head with you to juggle, cos I'll be picking it apart for inspiration... tongue

It'd be good to see what comes out for little head in a few months (or even weeks) time. Should keep you busy for a while...

See you on Monday? hug

oh... I reckon I'll be busy for quite some time with the head-full I've got right now... I'm anti-spinning everything I can get my hands on, including a couple pens just now... if the family start seeing crosses hanging up all over the walls, it's not cos I've got religion... tongue

and monday... yup yup!! I really enjoyed getting back to juggle again... still got the lil ones next monday, so this time I'll come prepared... plenty of chocolate and lego (or something)...

hmmm... actually... definitely monday, provided we're not too wiped out from sunday (the big day out)

Come to Perth!! If you come before March, you could stay with us :-) (and a few furries).

Perth is awesome!

Arrived in Sydney last night after a grueling trainride. After saying goodbye to the cool and gorgeous foreign boys in my hostel frown smile frown smile Staying with my grandma who in her mid 80s is still very active. You can't pin her down!

See you Brisbanites! wave wave wave

Looking forward to the Sydney Juggling Convention this weekend.

Pogo: No probs smile Just keep practicing. Go to church... tongue

Newgabe: Yup, see you there this weekend! Thanks for everything smile

Amarao: I probably won't get to Perth until April for SpunOut. But thanks for the offer. Will that still be available then? smile

If I'm still in Perth then- definitely...if not- my lovely other half will be here- and he says no problem...he'll have plenty of room with me n most of our gear gone biggrin
(He's coming later to NSW)

So if you come for Spunout, you'll have somewhere to stay. He's still deciding if he wants to go and camp there- but either way- you'll have a nice warm bed here. smile

Camp Leschenaultia (Lesh -nolt- ia)
• Accommodation for up to 80 in dormitories and up to 200 in tents.
• Large recreation hall for indoor games.
• In the cool of winter stay warm near the wood combustion stove.
• Separate accommodation for group leaders.
• Wheelchair access
• Communal dining with fully equipped kitchen, clean and well maintained
• Volleyball area, sporting oval and table games.
• Shops, tennis courts, football and cricket oval nearby.
• Wide games

Not sure what a wide game is though.....
If you would rather tent we havea small one that the lovely Durbs and Linda used to try see WhaleSharks with. maybe he should have used a kayak.

Wide games are the stuff scouts etc get up to.. stalking and hiding and treasure hunts and stuff. Good fun!

UCOF: I have but only fleetingly and by the side of trainlines frown



I've not eaten Kangaroo either... there's something about eating the flesh of a national icon that seems slightly wrong to me...



I'm always on a Manhunt... tongue





Gnor: Woodford has kinda put me off tents for a while (plus I left my tent at Gabes) so I'd happily fork out for a nice comfortable chalet! biggrin



Yes organise Manhunt...



**BLOG UPDATE**



Sydney has been fantastic so far (despite the warnings of the Melbournites!) Well the city is too hectic and big for me but the people I've met at the Sydney Juggling Convention have been lovely.



Mark Adam Douglas was a star in letting me stay at his (as a reprive from my dottily totalitarian Gran) use his pool (with an impromptu skinny dip too) for the duration of the convention. hug



Dave (BandanaDave on HOP) has been lovely too. He's taken me in and has offered to let me train alongside him in his mini circus troupe. Plus he lives near a lovely beach so visits to his place is on the cards! hug



Rozi - thanks for the lifts from the juggling gathering!



I've also started going to Capoeria classes. $55 for 4 sessions as opposed to the 26 squid back in blighty!



I intend to get super limber for when I come home! biggrin



Oh yeah. It's Sydney Mardi Gras soon. Still dunno whether to go to that...! wink

Indeed... the fact that he's a red-blooded (and red-haired) Str8 guy who openly admits he LOVES Madonna (as well as singing along to the lyrics during a routine) deserves respect! ubblol

His flat is SOOOOOO pimp. As soon as I walked into his flat I thought 'hmmmm, high ceilings, yup, a juggler house!' biggrin

Pity he's moving out soon... frown

What's the difference between an Australian zoo and an
English zoo?
An Australian zoo has a description of the animal on the
front of the cage along with a recipe.
