Poi-O-Pop Fever

Poi. I hate it. Sorry. Why do beautiful, romantic, deserted islands compel people to spin strings around their heads? And THEN light them with fire? It's attention seeking and you could have someone's eye out.



As expected, the beaches here are littered with people who are practising Poi. And they all look like idiots.

That said, the few that can really, really do it properly are amazing. Some of the kids on the island put on shows at night that, even to a Poi hater like myself, really are magical. So, here's an idea all you festival and beach Poi wannabes. Practise in your garden until you're as good as them. Only *then* do it in front of others. It's annoying.
