My apologies  to all but we chose the wrong weekend for the show. We should
have done it this weekend so that attendees could enjoy the pleasures of
Amsterdam the following day. I picked up this delightful report on the Radio
Netherlands website:

"On Sunday it is the opening of the "kiss season" in Amsterdam. The
intiative comes from the cultural centre De Balie who say Amsterdammers
should increase love in the city by kissing more in the street. The
programme organiser, Lisa Boersen, says Amsterdam's kissing couples must
keep up with the numbers in Paris.

The project, Love in the City, is a protest against the increasing hardening
of  society and structural individualism. Kissing is a metaphor; we should
strive to educate people about how they react with one another. On Sunday
evening there is a full kiss programme; A presentation by students of the
Rietveld Academy, poetry and proze, a lecture by the director of the
Architecture Centre and kissing lessons from consultants.

Broersen hopes to repeat the project each year. Ideas of how to improve the
kiss score are welcome."

Sometimes I miss the city,

Geoff
