After the festival

It was a week today that we arrived in Worcestershire, after two weeks of anxiety - would the festival happen at all or would it drown in the floods overwhelming the area? But it happened, and it's hard to imagine it now, although I've still got a trace of the glowing smile that I wandered round with all weekend.
This week we've been fielding comments, receiving feedback, and beginning to make plans for the future. This is the most exciting time in AHP's history since I've known it - real possibilities of reaching new people who can use what we offer and offer us energy in return.
Right now I'm sitting in my garden in the sun with piles of books, trying to work on my dissertation but drawn back into dreaming about the possibilities and remembering the realities of the weekend we had together. Sorry if you missed it - it was a treat. Come next year and find out for yourself - people have already been offering workshops and ideas.
I'm going to try to keep posting on this blog even if nobody finds it - so join in and let me know you're reading it!
Maxine.
