OK, so it's not poi related but I know some of you do contact juggling and I'm just learning. I can't seem to find a UK retailer for Acrylic balls on the web. I searched the forums and only found renegade and dubé which are american. I think Kaos might but their sites down. Any ideas anyone?Roughly how much should they go for?Cheers m'dears------------------https://welcome.to/thehugbubble I have only one burning desire....let me stand next to your fire

I'm fairly sure that you can get them from the Beard Juggling Company. They have an online catalogue so you can peruse, and do mail order.https://www.yorkshirebusiness.net/links/recreation/1recrf.htmThey're helpful too, if you have any questions just give them a call.

I obviously deserve it for never having actually been nasty to any of you.~~Ok, maybe i was nasty to thistle once but we've sorted that out now....
