We definitely need to meet some african spinners!!! (ok it's more a child toy usually in this part of the world but some passionate guys must exist!)

hi mermouille, hi all
I totally second that, Africa should be there
I have already sent some seeds : 12 tops in the village of Toubab Dilaw in Senegal
a pack of yoyos and mex tops to Oran in Algeria
but it was thanx to individual contacts , not institutions
i have also ( unsuccessfully) tried to send tops to Syria through Amnesty International,
Red Cross, and Unesco
but without any official back-up , no result these associations are at another level (financing, euro funds etc)

topak  Turkey
zarbout Morocco and Algeria

I heard about tops in Angola and Capo Verde ( former Portugese colonies)
Cuper has a contact there wheel c what comes out of it

cheers

Hi y'alls...

As you guys have probably realised, I kind of have vanished from the boards.

It's with a heavy heart that I resign from my position of International Board. There is no way with my current commitment to life that I will be able to fulfil anything.

I am sorry,
Xavier

We'll find a replacement, as Canada should be represented on the ITSA International Board!
