<P>I hope all is well with your SB project there? Is the guest house open
yet?</P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>* We are organising 4 workshops this summer ( the
3rd is just finished) but we don't work on the house, nor do the participants
sleep in the house.<BR></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>It will probably take an
other 2 years to finish our 'house' as it is 240m² big.</FONT></P>
<P>If you get any inquiries on the Spanish network you can send them to
subscribe at <A
href="mailto:paja@amper....muni.cz">paja@amper....muni.cz</A> or talk to me
or Maren (<A href="mailto:marenbegur@hotmail...">marenbegur@hotmail...</A>)
she speaks German and Catalan as well as English and Spanish.</P>
<P>*Thanks. I subscribed to <A
href="mailto:paja@amper....muni.cz">paja@amper....muni.cz</A> but for
some reason it did not work, I'll look into it later on.</P>
<P>We are hoping to get at Spanish SB website up this fall, but since I have
no computer or internet at home, and Maren has no time . . .. So far
things go slow, but we are working at it. </P>
<P>* Are you planning a national gathering?<BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>I plan
to make a tour through France, documenting the French SB houses and giving SB
presentations (Exposition + slideshow)</FONT></P>
<P>Come and visit whenever you like (but write first, because I am not always
there) or call : 657 33 51 62. </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>* Will do.</FONT></P>
<P>Did you know that Tom Rijven came to stay in my village a few days? I
learned a lot and I think he had a good time.</P>
<P>* Tom is a good guy, lots of positive energy and lots of experience.</P>
<P>Take care, Rikki </P></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>* You too,</DIV>
