Jetzt endlich komme auch ich dazu Dir und Karin "Danke" zu sagen. Es war eine rundum gelungene Konferenz. Informativ, weiterbildend , Mut machend . Vor allem war es eine unglaublich schöne Atmosphäre mit all diesen Menschen, die sich mit derselben "Sache" beschäftigen.

Gerhard, may I add my heartfelt thanks to you and Karin and the rest of the team that made the conference such a life enhancing experience, I wouldn't have missed it for the world. I met so many wonderful and inspiring people and heard so much thought provoking opinions and views, it's hard to know how to process all the information I have in my head at the moment!

Danke für die phantastischen Tage auf der Konferenz.

Anne and Jørgen Kühnell, Denmark

THANK YOU for a super great conference – the best and most clarifying workshop I ever attended! What people/participants confirmed was all my own hopes, targets and dreams. I received structure, wisdom, reasoning and back ground knowledge to really understand how important our work in EAHAE is – and also that we CAN do it! Thank you again for all the hard work with such a great result.

Paul Hunting, England

Thanks again for a wonderful conference. I wrote this letter to everyone.

Weird coincidences:
Is this how Spirit sends us those TV programs?

A message of gratitude from Paul Hunting. Monday morning – too early.

I was waiting for my return flight at Frankfurt airport. Reading a novel by Melvyn Bragg, The Soldier’s Return, about the effects on some English people of the (forgotten) Burmese war against Japan in 1946. I remember a joke I’d, an hour or so before, shared with Laura about taking this work to Japan because there’s(ho-ho) a Jap in the market!! (Get it?)

The novel’s character is talking about having just gone to see the film ‘Casablanca’. A minute later a flight is called over the PA – to guess where? Casablanca! How often have you heard a call for that particular destination? Me – never.

As I sit on the little bus that takes us to the aircraft, I am reading the part where our hero reminisces about digging a bayonet into a Japanese soldier- yucch! I have just finished a meal of sushi ( I never eat raw fish or meat!) Just then, a gentleman sits down opposite me – he’s Japanese! I silently apologise from my race to his. He remains oblivious, of course.

I finally get into my car to drive home from Birmingham airport. When I eventually figure out my way to the M40 I click on the radio. I catch the last few seconds of a programme about – guess what? The (forgotten) Burmese war against Japan! Dazed, I miss my turnoff and have to go the long way round. The next programme is about how animals and natural pursuits are being used with young offenders to evoke a sense of caring. A story is read about a donkey who has had to endure intolerable cruelty from his bullying owner...and so it goes on.

Thank-you all so much for a wonderful E-A-H-A-E Conference. You’re all invited to visit me here. I don’t want to wait another year to see you.

Peter Tester, Switzerland
