Hi all

Always had an interest in this stuff and read Seymores book about 17 years ago after visiting that place in Wales in the Quarry ( no good at Welsh names ) but i have a question so i will go to another part of your forum and ask it and spend the rest of the night reading all your threads. :dave: :geek:

Hi paddy and welcome. If you sat here all night reading the posts you might have got a shock when the forum was unavailable for a bit. We are in the process of moving to a bigger server so that the forum will run more smoothly. The whole process might take another couple of days so bear with us for a bit.

Welcome Paddy

We have turned a corner in terms of seasons down here in Tamaki / Auckland, Aotearoa. Damp northerly conditions combined with cool southerly breeze makes for a great day for mushrooms! Hmmm wild mushroom picking... yum.

anyway, welcome Paddy.

Christopher. :flower:

The Center for alternativetechnology you mean? It is very much there still and going from strength to strength. I should visit it again my self at some point, I think it was a bit before that when I was there last. Perhaps in the 1980's at some point, it was just a house at that point (if I remember rightly, I was just a child)
