In March 2006 it was once again time for the annual Language College Conference. This year it was held in Krakow in Poland. We took Mark Balmforth with us because of his Polish ancestry and my antics with him and our drunken snowball fights became legendary. As well as extremely cheap beer and food, we had a great time with the Leeds LC bunch. A more sobering aspect of the trip was a visit to Auschwitz, which was very sobering.Â
