Well, I’m waiting on information from the Irish co-ordinator. Am meeting him tomorrow so will bring it up again.

shall this organisation contribute twords
residential buildings also, or is its focus
commercial and large scale buildings?

Damn, going to be in Paris exactly a month before to the day…. Oh well….

Where does “Image” come in to the discussion? Is it about the general perception of the subjects being discussed?
