Belgi ë: news and evolution in Signspelling

[Thierry Haesenne]

Hello again, 
That's funny, because I also went to the CDS of Dublin last May, where I met Patrick
Matthews again after 8 years. He talked about his PhD, but due to a lack of time, we had no time to
go further in detail. Later, I went to Belfast to meet Shane Gilchrist o'hEorpa. Shane was among the first
ones to introduce me to SW... 
I plan to go back to Dublin in 2006 for other reasons but it will also
be an opportunity for me to gather more info about SW in Ireland.
I am waiting for an answer about
fundings to develop SW in French-Belgium. If I get a special fund for travelling, I will be able to travel
around and go to different schools in Europe (and also meet Val in the States, if I get the opportunity to
meet such a busy woman!!! -smile-) 
Thierry.
