Hi Paul,

Your Irish is so-o-o good.  I understood every word.  LOL

Haroun has already taken good care of you with the translation.  He 
knows far more than I.  The only thing I will add is that in USA we 
would recognize Christiane's woodcarving exam as a completion of her 
apprenticeship.  That would be the "Gesellenprufung".  At least that is 
how I read it.

So why did I respond to her message?  Because of our european research 
and therefore contacts,  I might be able to put her in touch with some 
people.

Btw, there is a saying that accompanies foreign language that is quite 
accurate:
The eyes read more than the ear will hear.
The ear hears more than the tongue can speak.

So reading is the easy part. (smile)  That's where I come in.
Hugs
Sally
