Hey y'all...
For anyone interested there is a new twirling group started up in Nottingham.
We no longer meet down speak easy on sundays but we still spin EVERY THURSDAY down the FOREST FIELDS recreation ground from about 8PM. (see end of thread for details)
Here's the website: Fields of Fire
PM me or Originalsmit with any questions...

Hello all
Just though I'd say high being a Notts spinner (etc.,) an' all. I have been a bit crap recently and haven't headed down cause of medical finals approaching (6 days to go
), sunday always seems to have been filled. Still, finished next thurs so will be down on that sun if anyone is about, cause after that I'm off to J'berg for 8 weeks (see social post) so need a bloody good burn before I go!Anyone seeing fire-engines around canning circus, they're prob after me
Anyway, back to the books...

Sooooo tempting... I'll see how revision's going; for I am the procrastination king (all bow and worship the skilled work avoidance). Still, all over next thurs-end is in sight

well no-one not one person turned up for the big notts spin so that was a faliure.
i understand you all got probs with revision £££ etc etc and its all good.
half of the peeps who normally turn up are now somewhere else somewhere backward and foreign like guilford.
so is anyone left. is anybody out there?
ill be there from 8 till whenever i run out of parrafin, thursday as per usual.
someone should turn up. if your reading this it could be you

*bump*
right lets get this show out the ditch (full of stangant water, bits of discarded rubbish and strange mutated animals that have been evolving for the past few weeks) and back on the road!
I'm coming back to Nottingham tomorrow (*waits for cheering crowds, fanfares and fireworks to calm down*) and i proclaim that:
'On Thursday night from 8pm there shall be a wonderful spin down Forest Fields with hopefully more people than just Smit and I!'
S'gonna be good and you know it!
