I've been feeling like Marilyn on this one. Over the pond without a paddle. :? I would greatly appreciate receiving any takeaway materials :D ....would even be willing to toss a few quid into the plate if necessary to help defray any costs just for a chance for this to happen...(and to receive a good summary of what gets taught in exchange :wink: !)

Hope you have great fun!

Best wishes
Jean

Interested - and could possibly also help. I had a very successful trip there this summer and added more branches to the tree.

Hi Liz,

Since I posted my interest I think the response so far would make your...
Christine got carried away with enthusiasm and offered to run a wee seminar
...was just a little bit of an underestimation of potential response :lol:

If you were planning a wee meeting place, I'd suggest thinking a bit bigger :lol:

Dear Marie

When it comes to Ireland, all help is appreciated. We can get in touch via PM when I've got a better idea what C's plans are for the day. If you'd like to contribute in some way, that would be great.
