good things

It seems that good things do come in threes...

Today someone rang me from a French organisation which helps developing associations and businesses and said they were so impressed by our idea, and our website, that they wanted to invite me to take part in a concours, designed to encourage 'young innovators' (I like that bit!). Basically this means that I have to make a presentation all about happykids to a panel of four judges, and if they're impressed they'll give us some money.. Not sure about all the details and it isn't for several months, which is a good thing as it'll give me lots of time to worry about making a presentation in French...

The second thing is that we've had our first booking for a group of adults from a residential home this week. We've already had some booking for families but this is the first group booking.

And the third one is that we've been asked to send some pictures for inclusion in an upcoming issue of Communication magazine. Communication is the National Autistic Society's excellent and very popular glossy, and, as they contacted us, hoepfully thye're intending to give us a good writeup and some excellent publicity...

So, all very positive this side of the channel, helped, it has to be said by the fact it was 26 degrees this afternoon and the trees are laden with the most beautiful blossom.
