Hello hello everyone. Cheers for the welcomes grouphug

Well I'm pretty sure that next year we're gonna have some crazy invasion on our hands with the EJC...and was thinking (even though its a long way off) that the EJC being only one week long just isn't enough....
so...how about an extra large twirlypoiyweavesmileystaffyjugglyjugglemanipulationy extension of the EJC with a few more days (or how bout weeks smile ) of chilling out camping at the hill of tara (or another similarily lovely spot) afterwards? ubbrollsmile
Any takers bounce
Really hope I can make it Tara direction this month Claire, but I'm going to be running my parents shop for september so have some doubts about getting away frown
Nice one everyone chat to ye later

i'm well up for that ejc plan!

on a slightly related note, everyone seems to be referring to bristol as 'the BJC' now and it confuses me lots.

whatever happened BrJC like its always been...?
it sure would help avoid confusamating stupid people like me.
ah well - i've learnt now so i'm sure i'll get over it wink

BrJC could also stand for British Juggling Convention IMO.

I reckon simply calling it Bristol would be a good idea.

For example:

Man1: "You going to Bristol?"

Man2: "Yes"



See how easily that works?



smile



edit: Yes. That Idea is stonking. Please do it biggrin Tara Tara Tara Tara! bounce
