Across the Atlantic and teaching in America at the New England Circle Dance Camp. The lists of dances and music can be found here.

Off to Brazil! You can read my South American diary here.
The Festival Band have been rechristened Gadje Dilo - the Crazy Foreigners. We're off to São Paulo in June to play at the Brazil Circle Dance Festival before returning to Findhorn to play at the Festival of Music, Song & Dance in July. We continue to play every month locally - see our homepage for more details.
I've put two of my Apple Mac programs up for general download and use - AndyBooks2 is a simple and easy accounts and bookkeeping program while Invoicer2 is a straightforward invoice manager. You can get them from my software page.
September saw me visiting Italy to teach my first Italian dance workshop (in English). The theme was Tricky Rhythms and I went into all sorts of irregular dance patterns, quite a challenge for the group but one that we mastered and enjoyed. I even received my first ever Italian appreciation for my teaching.
While in Milan I ensured my continuing good luck by spinning on the bull in the Galleria. Well, as far as it was possible.
There are two new Xenos CDs in the dance music shop - Florinalia features dance music from Florina in northern Greece while In The Orange Grove is a collection of previously unreleased dance tracks. Both are excellent!
