This should make a good recovery event for what ever the prevoius night brnigs on.

yeh i should be there

well i've mist the last 2 peace circles cause i've past out right before they happend (the last one i woke up in a newie crew tent with no idea ho i got there)

so as yo can see why i would be pissed off if i miss it

I should be able to make this I've always wanted to go to an Earthdance but could never be bothered travelling anywhere to get there... Yes I'm lazy

But having this at Sydney Park is fantastic

Lets just hope the serial pest and his deaf cat isnt there this time...

well i havew a new fire stick so we could just 'accidentally' set fire to him..


(now i see why alcohol should be banned!!!)

oh dear, we might need a catty or something with which to knock that guy in the butt with if he wonders around again. How insulting.

Still up for this a bit disapoointed it's not in a beautiful forest venue or something like that but i guess, hey, what can you do?

It *does* make it harder for you to pike though...

that it does!

hmm a BLer pike on going to a party
never
they would never do somthign like that

almost time people
this should be a truly beautiful day

i might make an appearance if we're in the city that weekend. It sounds like it'll make for a nice relaxing day
