    I soooo wish this was being offered in our area. I'm insanely jealous, and if this was offered around the country I know that there would be lots of people who would attend. Jennie you are fabulous.

    Thanks for that Bridget! I'd say talk to your local National Library people and see what could be organised in your area. Mereana is based in Auckland so a bit closer to our neck of the woods, but I know she travels...
