I'm helping organise the Bath UpChuck juggling convention which will be on the 28th of february next year so I thought I would let all you lovely people know and tell you to come along smile

" The UpChuck is going to be a one day juggling convention hosted by the University of Bath's juggling society, Gravity Vomit in conjunction with Bath Spa University. We're aiming to cater to all skill levels and will be running workshops and taster sessions throughout the day in various types of object manipulation. These are yet to be finalised, anyone interested in leading a workshop is welcome get in touch at convention@bathupchuck.co.uk "

So, come along, juggle, spin and have fun smile

Thought I might bump this up a little and get an idea of how many HoPpers are planning to go. I'll be making an appearance, my brother is helping run it, so it'd be a tad rude not to! tongue2

Thanks all.
Loved that.


How was the 2nd half of the show? The 30 minute break was the decider for us going home frown Thats waaay too long.


Nice work Tom and Will. Your juggling was awesome grin

A very good convention, shame I missed the beginning since I didnt get there till 3.

I'd like to ask why was there a 30 minute intermission? For me that was a real decider to leave aswell. Hope I didnt miss too much! Anyway good times were had! See you all next year!

It was getting late Rob- we (Bov, Will and myself) were all gutted to miss your act frown

Thanks to all GVers; it was a really good day- the space is excellent and the general 'vibe' was really pleasant smile

(PS Special thanks to Max for pulling the strings for me after I lost my show ticket) /numpt

30 minute interval gave people enough time to get to the bar and get some drinks and get back in time... otherwise people would have been rushing to the bar and back and complaining about that instead... wink

I had fun, the show was great, I was tired and lazy. smile

Hey guys
Thanks to all of you for coming
Really sorry about the interval length but basically as Ed said it was basically so that people would have time to go to the bar, will make it shorter next time as that's been the main criticism so far.

Aye, I agree, and pretty to boot!

Sorry to miss your performance Rob, but it was a good hour n a half back to Chutneys aswell. I don't think a bar trip would have been necessary and therefore don't see the need to cater a huge interval for one. How long was the show after that? Half hour maybe? In my experience most people at a juggling show intermission just walk outside or fire odly shaped balloons at each other.

Just my two cents...
