Anybody know of any workshops in these areas please? I really need some teaching on the ornamentation bits.

one more interesting link for you
I’m going to be attending the Strathspey in May. It looks to be a fun time. Flook is performing and there should be some good teachers. And I think we’ll hop over to Ireland for a couple days before that.
I’d love to meet other folks from the list. Please let me know if anyone else is going.

Thanks for the links. Unfortunately Strathspey is too far for me.
