11th Birmingham Circus Convention!
Location - Ladywood Arts and Leisure Centre
316 Monument Road, Ladywood, Birmingham B16 8TF.
First thing I noticed about this convention was the HoP-esque show! mcp and Eccles from HoP are performing, and then there's the contact juggler Matt Hennem etc. Seems like an object manip orientated show.
Who'll be going?
I MIGHT, considering it's the day after my last exam, and I'll be going out the night before...

I don't think Matt Hennem is on HoP, but anyway, his Contact Juggling is Immense!! If anyone know Nika, there's something to go by as to his his style, But without the Skirt...

Good enough. You will have to get a bus from town to get there but digbeth is practically in town any way.
Give me a call when you get close and we can sort out details.

Can anyone in Birmingham send me a private message if they also have floor space?
I'd like to go, but it seems somewhat dependent on having floor space - I don't take up too much, though possibly a bit more than Ed (LTC).

Sandy, since I'm staying with you (thanks buddy!), do you have a spare sleeping-bag/duvet/random cover I can throw over myself?!?
I find it hard sleeping on some floor or sofa, especially without a cover!

Tut. You know how jugglers hate poi, you should have come up with a show-stopping routine a fair while ago, to win them over!

lemonkey: i have plenty of spare duvets and soft things to sleep on. I may even be able to give you a room to sleep in if you don't want to party (just have to check if its ok with my mate)
After party at mine sounds like a plan, its not like we arn't used to having them.
Meg: Drugs? we would never partake in such scurilous practices. I do have lots of coffee though.

I wouldn't want to impose by seizing an entire room! But that's great news regarding a duvet.
I look forward to seeing y'all on saturday!
