It's just too bad that I won't be able to be away from home that long this August. That is also probably the week my dad and sister are coming to meet the baby. Please keep posting great UK Classes here though. I hope to get back to more in person classes July 2013 or so.

Cheers,

Oh, what a shame, Erica, but lovely to see your family!

I've a few more courses I can put up for Skylark Holidays, and I also teach 1 to 1 tailor made courses, too.
