<div>Hi all,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I just thought I’d let you know I am now home safe and sound form the
European Strawbale Gathering in France. Wow it’s a long flight home to
Australia and while I’m battling the jet lag I’ve been reflecting on what a
fantastic experience it was!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I had a great time at the conference and felt that the entire event was a
huge success. From my perspective the speeches were all well constructed,
informative, intelligent and thought provoking. The sharing of ideas and
opinions in such a warm and friendly environment is such a pleasure for
me.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The European committee are going strong and are planning to build the
worlds tallest strawbale project. It will be a 7 storey building. It would seem
that most of Europe are using strawbales in the ceiling meeting all the solar
passive standards.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I met so many new strawbale builders from all over the world and would like
to nominate two for our forum;</div>
