Hi I'm Yvonne and as some of you already know am a complete novice with balloons.  I have been face painting professionally since last Feb and went along to one of Graham's Care & Share Days last June and the rest, as they say, is history.

I am currently waiting on some instructional DVD's so I can progress from basic dogs and giraffes  :roll: to something a little more impressive so that - hopefully - I can start branching out.

Hi to Dave, Bickers, Wim and Prof.

Hi Yvonne welcome to the forum

It sounds like we're at a similar level with the twisting - I got into it through doing discos now I want to learn more and build on the twisting gigs I'm beginning to get now.

A fairly easy decision for me to develop the balloon stuff - carting 500kg of disco kit around for 6 -7 hours work mainly for people who have drunk too much or carrying one case of balloons for 2 -3 hours work and not too much difference in the hourly rate I can charge and much smaller overheads??
C\'mon Let\'s twist again...

Thanks for your warm welcomes.  Graham I have been looking at the Dave Grist ones but I think I had better wait until my Cozmic ones turn up and use those for a bit or my hubby will kill me  :roll: Especially as I have not had a single job with just balloons booked yet.

Smiggle I totally understand where you are coming from - can't say I enjoy dealing with drunk or belligerent adults.  They are normally worse behaved than the kids lol.
