This event had been on our long list of subjects that we would like to tackle for years. The trouble is where do you start? It’s a broad topic, a whole language and associated culture which needs a bit of help and encouragement, covered in half a day. 

I find that quite a few of our events start out in a lot of discussion, throwing things around, bouncing ideas and so on until all of a sudden it comes into focus. This didn’t happen for this event – we never saw an outline forming in the mist or a promising breadcrumb trail we could follow.
