Hi Torsten,
As soon as I return from my holiday at the end of October, I would like to be involved in this course. After a 3 week holiday I will be itching to get back to work and of course I'm familiar with the centre as well as Nordhausen itself.
kindest regards
Scott

Hi Torsten,

Many thanks for the additional offer of the work in Nordhausen. Although i would really appreciate the extra longer work, I am actually moving flat on that very day, 6th October, and of course then there will be the exhastive process of settling in, so the Magdeburg work if still available, would still be my preferred choice.

Many thanks

Noel

Hi Torsten,

But in addition to my previous message, my move etc will all be sorted and ok by monday 12th October. I still very much hope to have the Magdeburg work starting on 2nd November, but i have nothing at all booked for October - so if a job share on this one were workable and practical, then i would be delighted to offer Monday 12th through to Friday 30th October.

Thanks
Noel

[Torsten]

Hi Noel,

Many thanks for that. Have you checked the other Nordhausen course reports for accommodation and other useful information? I'll be starting the course tomorrow and will let you know the plan for next week. So far, there is only Scott and me booked for this course but Scott returns from holiday only early November so I look forward to sharing the work with at least one more trainer.

Please watch this space.
Regards,
Torsten

Hello Torsten

Ill be taking a short break after the end of the Mönchengladbach job but would be available from Monday 9th November for this job. I'd be delighted to work in Nordhausen, please let me know if you need me.

Cheers

Stefan

Hi Torsten,

Many thanks for the two offers for this post. I have already replied with a "yes" to the October invites. With the November dates, I was just wondering what your plans were for the Magdeburg work ? If i were to accept the November dates for Nordhausen, would that get in the way of me being able to do the Magdeburg assignment for you, or do you have other plans for that ?

I'll await your response Torsten - and I with this being important to me, i will be online tomorrow. Thanks, Noel

[Torsten]

Hi Noel,

Thank you very much for your swift response. I really appreciate that, especially since you are now moving house. As for the Magdeburg course, it hasn't been confirmed yet so we haven't made any plans regarding the schedule. At any rate, Scott and I would like to share our courses with you.

I've booked you in for Nordhausen October 26 and 27 and as soon as Magdeburg gets confirmed I'll send your email invites with the dates.

Regards,
Torsten

Great stuff ! Thanks for the additional info there. I shall now confirm the Nordhausen November invites.

Thanks again Torsten.

Hi Torsten and Noel,

So tomorrow I'm jetting off for my voyage visiting London, Brunei, Dubai and Australia.

Even though i have no intention of making it a 'Busman's' holiday, I will possibly still stay active on the forum when I have the chance. I wish you all lots of fun with this new group and hope all the new plans are productive, I will watch this thread with great interest.

A quick note for Noel, when you're in Nordhausen I strongly recommend staying at 'Pension Lapp'. It's cheap and no-thrills but very well equipt for a short stay and its also only 20 minutes walk to the training centre. Please find the link below:

Also if you need any tips on eating out or places to drink, please don't hesitate to ask.

So bye for now, as I mentioned I will try to report on my adventures when it's possible hopefully in the form of a diary.

Scott

Many thanks for that accommodation link there Scott - much appreciated ! - and looks OK !! Price is certainly a plus !

Enjoy your travels

[Scott Graham]

Noel,
No worries, yes the price is good and to be honest it's clean and comfortable so it's a no-brainer!

Also I have created a thread for my travel diary if anyone is interested:

Hi Torsten or Scott,
In preparation for the work i have booked here for next week starting wednesday, I was wondering if you could specify what book/s are being used here. It is vital for me to have time to both purchase the necessary materials and go through them carefully beforehand. I think i read in a previous mail somewhere that this was an A2 class ?? Would that then be the second book in the Fairway series ?....or what ? Advice here would be much appreciated. Thanks, Noel
