Cool concept! Here are the pictures:

Thank god that's in July! :o)
Thanks again everybody for everything there - sleep, food, drink - we love you! :o)
In march I participated at a workshop in Belgium, run by 'Klangwerkstatt', some german instrument-makers. With their help I made another harp, I put the pieces together, made wooden nails, shaped the wood, worked on the surface to make evrerything nice and smooth, put an oil-finish on and finally strung and tuned my new harp! :o)

The news of the month of december 2005 - We were everywhere!!!!
We performed in Trappes, Evry, Clairfontine, Egligny, Sevres, at the Pavillon Royal, at the Cirque du Grand Céleste, at the Hardrock Café Prais, in Ablon sur Seine, Mantes la Ville and even by the seaside, in Treport...
What a big end-of-year-mix!
We did the fire, the rings, Arlequin and colombine, and especially asked for at Christmas -
our new Christmas-Show!
Our audience was very impressed by t he extraordinary presentation of our christmastree - in three meters height balanced on a long stick on Lutines nose! We did some Christmas-cleanin with our magic feather cleaners and our tissues that don't stop whirling in the air, we juggled with presents, manipulated snow-balls, made glittery garlands appear by magic, played music together with our audience, even on the magic music-box which is called barrel-organ...
Lundi 17 octobre 2005 - We had to take our boat to the boatyard in order to get the rudder repaired and the hull cleaned and some new anodes put on, but we also discovered that our propeller-shaft was damaged by a piede of rope which could have been very dangerous if unnoticed... we are waiting for the repairs to be done!

Sunday october 9th 2005 - we performed at the 'Fête du fromage', the big 'cheese-festival' in Meulan! It was a great party, the whole town out and celebrating in the street, lots of smelly cheese around and the highlight of the day was the passage of 300 sheep through the crowd. Very nice, lots of laughs and good mood! Lots of wine, which thank god did not affect our juggling. And we met an audience who participated, who was enthusiastic, but who was critical at the same time - well - a ring on the ground stays a ring on the ground... but lots of rings in the aire are impressive and applauded with joy! :o)
