Well this week in 1989.........
.June the 1st B arts moved to our first premises in the Barracks, No 9, and in B arts style followed by Gill and Hilary going to Torino to see Fay, where we met the people (L'Arvicola) that would become B arts partners in youth exchanges for the next 15 years or so.
I can see from my diary that we actually moved in on the 7 June, that Susan came back (from London on the 5th) we started cleaning, getting the phone number ( 717326 which we still have) and decorating, and moving 'stuff' from Susans room ( the office) I remember that it was hot....
....and that on our way back from Torino on the train Gill got hold of a newspaper (French) and slowly unpicked the events that were happening in Tianamen Square, we wondered what that would mean for the world, would China change?
And still today on Radio 4 they are discussing the fact that nobody really knows what happened.

Well that solves that one then- we've been in the Barracks for 20 years. Great
