I had a great time teaching in Aberdeenshire last weekend and well done to all the students who came to workshops, I was very happy with everyone's progress. Mark and I are looking forward to next week's week-long workshop in the peace of Fetternear Hall. 4 or possibly 5 London students are coming up, thanks to all those who'll be putting them up. For regular students, come along to as many classes as you can, even if work means you'll miss some of the day time sessions, it shouldn't be a problem for the 'old hands'! If you know that any of the less experienced students are interested, remind them that it's fine to come just for the weekend, or even the Saturday, if they can't bunk off work for a whole week... Friday evening will also be the usual mix of Ta Lu, Wabu and knocking, etc. We will also revise 'Ta Lu 1B' that you learned last visit. Bring all your good energy and sense of adventure with you to share, as well as food.

We had a beautiful morning picking fungi in the Braemar area just before going home. I'll post some pics when I get back from classes later today.
