Haiku for the new year
January 2012
First walk of new year
on old path between setting
sun and rising moon
One Day (1-1-11) Haiku
January 2011
One day will bring peace
if one day in one way each
one makes peace each day
Hogmanay Haiku
January 2010
A new year begins
as old year of old fears fades
almost fast enough
Harriet's Haiku
March 2009
This is how my mother always answered my phone calls.
Well, Walt! So good to

Harburn House is our favourite venue for intensive workshops with small groups. We get exclusive use of this wonderful old house set amid three thousands acres of woods, ponds, and fields. Mike creates incredible meals and Susie takes care of anything from an extra tea break to a trip into Edinburgh.
Thanks to Rozi Spurway, Harburn provides the background for all the wonderful photos that Ervin Šilić took for this website. Click on the photo for more information about Harburn.
I found Harburn through the best venue agent in the world: Sheila Hayles. Would you like her agency to find a venue for you? For FREE? Click here for Town and Country Conferences .
