Hi Everyone, :wave1:

I'm a newbie here on the forum and based near Nantes in North Western France.

Looking for anyone who is also in France or indeed in the adjoining countries (UK, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Andorra) or indeed anywhere in Europe, who is also working in this area for exchange of local ('ish) information and mutual support.

Please send me a private message on the forum and post here!

Merci beaucoup

Alastair

Salut alastair,
I live in Italy but quite on the opposite side of the border with France, to the East.

I read your system thread too - pretty cool, how are things going with that?

Hey Tojo,
I have always enjoyed my trips to Northern Italy, although I never got as far east as you are.

I hope to complete my initial IBC system this week (looks good for that, just updated) and am currently doing a more detailed design on the main system. Got some input from the folks on this forum so hope to post something on that after the IBC system completion for review. Still trying to finalize my timeline for completion of that system but certainly before mid-summer!

I'll update my "system" thread as I go. (http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=16580)

All input welcome.
Thanks
Alastair

Hi,

I live near Paris (dept 94) and maintain a few small (experimental) systems along with a website (in French).

Let me know if you come nearby.

CU!

Hello,

Thanks Stuart. Andorra is a principality high in the Pyrenees mountains between Spain and France. It is much like Monaco. Good to know about it for skiing and quiz games! Its main business activity is tourism.

Isn't it also a tax haven? :)

Cheerz from Belgium!

:funny1: Isn't every small country!
Of course, that well known neighbour to Belgium is well busy in the area of tax avoidance (Vodafone etc...) , Luxembourg :upset:

Such fun! :evil:

I agree , it's one of those things that's completely wrong in todays world...

I hope the weather at your place has been better , safe to say that it sucked here in Belgium, having a hard time keeping my garden alive...

The weather turned today. We now have summer!

Should be your way tomorrow (I would guess).

Yeah! :flower: :flower:

Hi Alastair, newbie Dave C here. A few friends and I are getting togther later next week to discuss setting up a few systems, one at each house. We're a couple of hundred kilometers west of you near Lorient. Would really like to know how your situation is regarding your setup. Would be great hear from you.

Hey Dave C,

We have just started (literally yesterday) with Phase 2 of the plan.
You can see the plan at http://www.techno-gaia.org and the blog is at http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=16580&start=59

Would be great to understand your plans and share knowledge.

If you send me a private message on the forum, we can exchange email addresses and thus communicate directly.
Talk to you soon
Alastair
