["Barbara Jones" <strawbale@lineone...>]

OOps yes.
Been so busy finishing off last minute details, forgot to tell you all about
first the document, available for free to download from our website (about
60 pages).
Will also be available as a book from April, available from Green Books,
bookshops, or from me.

I'd be very glad to have any thoughts, comments etc you may have.
Best wishes,
