JUGGLING 
JUGGLING
I am a
juggler. I can manage 3 & 4 balls with some
interesting tricks and am working on 5. My 3 clubs is solid in singles,
doubles and triples, with the usual chops, under the leg etc.
I
also enjoy fire juggling, and ASTRO BALLS for juggling at night.
This photo of my was taken, late one night, at the Bristol Festival of the Sea - 1996.
My wife,
Joss, is also my regular
juggling partner. We can pass 6 with doubles, tomahawks and a few other
tricks and are working on passing 7. Occasionally seen at School Fetes
etc
as Professor Fumble & Dr Drop-A-Lot
Tarim
was also getting us to pass in 3 count at Dab Hands (7-9 Tuesdays at
Horfield Parish Church hall, Bristol.). I was sometimes to be seen at the
Juggling Workshop on Monday Nights (7.30-10.30) at the
Window Art Centre in
Bath. My local juggling club at work is now; The Flying Teapots (Mondays
7-9, St. Andrews church hall, Sheffield.) and at home the Loughborough
Juggling Club - Old Mission Hut, St. Peters Community Centre, Storer Rd.
7-9 Thursday evenings, although we are more likely to be seen at the
Nottingham juggling club.
We visit
several U.K.
juggling conventions & festivals each summer. In 1995 this included
the British Convention (Norwich), Wessex (Frome),
Glastonbury,
Trowbridge Village Pump & Alton Towers. In 1996 we have attended
Wessex (Frome) 5-7 July & Bristol Community Festival (Ashton Court)
13-14 July,
MissalToad
Convention (Bath) 7th & 8th December. We had a great time at
the
1997 Annual British
Juggling Convention at Nottingham, 10th-13th April, and at
Glastonbury
Festival despite the mud. In 1998 we have visited
York Juggling Festival
(Chocfest), the 11th
British
Juggling Convention 9-12 April in Bristol,
Glastonbury
Festival June 26-28 1998 . In 1999 we've been to
Chocfest (York),
and
Glastonbury.
We haven't done so many conventions in recent years - 4 kids & work etc get in the way, but we do make it to Glastonbury & occasional BJCs
The Juggling Information Service used to be the most amazing place to start to find any juggling information you might think of, and a lot that you won't, but doesn't seem to be updated - I now recommend the Internet Juggling database. rec.juggling is also an amazing place to hang out.
