I am following John's instructions and saying a warm welcome to all the people I look forward to meeting in Thailand in January. There is quite a strong contingent now coming from [VegSoc UK](http://www.vegsoc.org/), including at least three trustees. For some it will be the first time and I think they are in for a real treat. It is my first Congress and my first visit to Chiang Mai though I have already visited the city of angels, Bangkok and was very impressed. As well as my "official "duties as speaker and making a bid for the UK congress, I may also be doing a circle dance workshop. circle dance is dancing from all different cultures, some old, some new, in order to promote harmony. I will probably focus on the more celtic ones as they tend to be the easiest to learn if you are not used to it . so don't forget you dancing feet! See you there, Tina Fox A note on this archive. The history section of this website is drawn from a body of legacy content originally compiled by John Davis, former manager of the International Vegetarian Union. It represents his curation of historical material, and in places includes passages written by him directly. Over the years, the IVU website has migrated between several different hosting servers. In the course of these migrations, a number of PDF files were unfortunately lost, and **some links to PDF documents may no longer function**. Where this is the case, we have chosen to leave the original link text in place, as it may itself carry information of historical value. - Hits: 1266 ### Vegan Recipes - [![Basil Roasted Vegetables Over Couscous](https://ivu.org/media/zoo/images/basil-roasted-vegetables-over-couscous-1775427674_5cf778b64423d1a12f7ca0b1ef03cc52.jpg "Basil Roasted Vegetables Over Couscous")](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/item/basil-roasted-vegetables-over-couscous.html "Basil Roasted Vegetables Over Couscous") #### [Basil Roasted Vegetables Over Couscous](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/item/basil-roasted-vegetables-over-couscous.html "Basil Roasted Vegetables Over Couscous") [Main course](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/main-course-for-lunch-and-dinner.html) [Mediterranean ](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/mediterranean.html) [Noodles](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/noodles.html) [Morocco](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/morocco.html) [African](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/african.html) -
