Spent four days at Blenheim Palice in Oxfordshire, I don`t think I have ever seen it rain so hard for so long without stopping. The wet weather gave me lots of spare time to Spend juggling 4 clubs and have reached my target of 100 throws with double spins.
I have lights for 2 Mr Babache Finesse diabolos. After using them once, one of the cups filled with rainwater and shorted the batteries. Luckily a full charge brought the batteries back to life as I`m really impressed how the lit diabolos look.
I tried lots of pirouettes with various props over the weekend. It looks so easy when performed by other jugglers, like this ball juggling video. I`m so so bad at pirouettes it is quite shocking, you would think by the law of averages I would be able to land one in a hundred.

Almost too hot for juggling
Just finished my 2 hour 4 club session, I feel like dying it`s so hot ! My asynchronous double spin pattern is coming together really well, I think I`m going to do some work on each hand separately tomorrow in an attempt to increase my accuracy and endurance.

Nice day for juggling
It has been a great day for juggling, nice and warm with a minimum of wind :)
Finally building up the strength and endurance to practice with 4 clubs for 2 hours. Although after finishing a 2 hour session I`m pretty worn out !
Tried 5 rings but I`m rubbish at juggling rings outside. So I did just over an hour juggling balls instead. Really solid 5 ball runs, good 6 ball flashes and some poor attempts at flashing 7 balls.
I`m seriously tired now. I`d better stop before I add to the Worst Juggling Injury thread.
