haka and women doing the poi, if you think it looks easy have a go. I have my own poi and can even whack myself on the back of my head if I lose concentration!
I plan to do Lake Garda in my old age, maybe I’ve read too many books but it seems that sort of place doesn’t it? Good enough for DH Lawrence is good enough for me.
