James emailed yesterday to let me know what a fantastic day he had with us all at the workshop and what a great bunch he thought we all were! He is in the country for a while longer & may come through Masterton again if the opportunity comes up.....will keep you posted. Feel free to contact him yourself, his details are on the participant list .

James is returning to the UK to complete this project before heading to South Africa for some adventures there. James is also going to send me a copy of the time lapse photos from the workshop (he had set up his camera on the roof taking photos every 3 minutes all day!). Give me a bell if you'd like to take a look.
