Well there seems to be alot of people from Bristol and other places in England.
But I thought I would put my post up, to help boost the numbers from Wales (although I am English myself).
I started learning poi when I was at Glastonbury and since I have managed to get about 10 of my mates interested (it is very addicted), only problem is they keep asking me for tips, and as I know the weave and not alot else I'm not a great help.
Right some facts

Hobbies Poi (obviously), sociallising, like some extreme sports (ski diving (tried once), and paragliding some examples)
Not quite sure what else I can say. Apart from the fact I'm off travelling off for a year on the 1st of October- South Africa, Australia, NewZealand, Hon Kong, Thailand. So if I get to meet any of you lot on my travelles, hello in advance.

hey
to HoP.I used to live in Wales too! (Well, on and off, with my job).
I lived near Brecon, in the hills, but have climbed the sea cliffs at Pembrokeshire. It's beautiful down there.

'ello!
I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.
