Is someone trying to tell me something..?

I received a mystery parcel at the weekend.  Without any sign of who it was from or why I had recieved it, I got 

a set of bodyfat calipers.  Now, these are all well and good but slightly confusing.  They retail at around a tenner, so they're not a promotional item.  I don't think anyone out there would send me a set as a gag because (1) I'd be tiresomely technical about the different skinfold-sampling protocols and my preference for the Jackson & Pollock four-site method as being a pleasing harmony of accuracy and practicality, and (2) I'd cry. 

On top of the bloody seal, it's all a bit much.

Wasn't me!

It wasn't me. Though I saw these at Home of Poi and thought of buying you one :)

While the thought is touching, I'm appalled that you think I'd countenance safety equipment!

Some soft trainer poi are next on my list, I think, and instructional material.

In a weak-willed moment I bought some of these poi. They're rather cool, and won't burn my eyebrows off.

If you're after instruction material, I've got this Poi Spinning book, which is quite good, but I'd recommend getting a DVD too because sometimes it really helps to see what it's supposed to look like.
