    Hi Waltraud, great to see you here!  Please, when you have the time, load a photo, so we can really "see" you, tell us some more about yourself, and have a look at the conversation forums that are in action, that's where we can contribute to each other.  I hope you find great community in the Art of Hosting network!  And I hope I get back to Vienna sometime soon!

    Liebe Waltraud,

    'leider' haben wir sehr viele Anmeldungen, können max. 60 Personen im Kurs akzeptieren. Im Moment sind ca. 10 Leute auf der Warteliste.

    Ich kann dir zwei Angebote machen:

    1. sollte sich noch was ergeben, verständigen wir euch sofort. (Aber die Wahrscheinlichkeit ist eher gering.) 

    2. Das nächste Training ist im April. Wir gehen davon aus, dass Toke und Monica auch wieder mit dabei sind.

    Trotzdem liebe Grüße,

    Manfred

    Hello Waltraud - yes I am looking forward to meeting you in January. We will be 44 people at the training coming from all over Europe and the world. No I did not realise we had not posted this on the ning - I thought we had. I'll look into it.

    Merry Christmas and all the best from
