Subject: MISC: Tango Shoes Update
Thanks to the support of all who are now wearing comfortable tango
shoes, I have just made my SECOND order to the factory!! Anyone who
needs shoes should get their orders in now, as sizes sell out quickly.
If you want to see the available styles, go to:
www.22tangoshoes.com
I will soon be adding some new, all black styles in both leather and
suede.
Thanks,
Robin Tara

Subject: EU-W: Tango Festival in Seville
I am looking for any information about a tango festival in Seville,
Spain from September 16 to the 23rd (I think those were the dates).
Some specific questions I have are:
Is the weather bearable in Seville that time of year?
Are the milongas good (I've been to some festivals where the dance
floor for the nightly milongas were VERY rough cement, which was not
good)?
Who are the teachers going to be?
Is it well organized?
How many classes a day are offered?
Are the locations for the classes good (i.e. good floors, enough space, etc.)?
Thanks for any information you might have,
Brett

Subject: NA-W: Nora's web site still down
Problems relating to transfer of the domain name to a new ISP have
left the web site for "Nora's Tango Week" ( www.tangoweek.com ) down
much longer than was anticipated. Nora and Bob regret any
inconvenience that this delay may be causing you. Since previous
prognostications have proven unreliable we will wait until the site is
up and running then post a notice to that effect. Ciao..........
Happy Tangos,
Ed Loomis
