I would like to seek a meeting with you to identify how this challenging project might be initiated and resourced. set up

I might add that the Foreign and Commonwealth Office supports the project as a symbol of Anglo-Yemeni cooperation. In addition

Yours sincerely,

Harriet Chetwode-Talbot, Ms.

We need a good news story from the Middle East, a big one. And we need it now. You've got an hour, get on with it. start to do it right now.

We therefore regret that we are unable to help you any further in this matter.

I'll maybe have another wee pass at the caddis fly paper. just scotish word. it means anything littler or short or small. like a short time. a wee late, a wee boy...
