Well, I wrote to them last week thanking them for their help over the accounting matter. I’ve just had a reply. They’ve written to say we were right to decide to reduce costs, which is nice to know. But they want us to cut back even more. Barry suggested that I pass it on to the accounts department to see if they could make more savings. But I think we’ve gone as far as we can. So I’m just going to leave it for the moment. If they’re really insistent, they’ll write again. But I don’t think I need to do anything aobut it right now.

I said I wanted to make it out to Harrison. So they’ve written to say they are organizing something next month. Apparently he is going to give a talk about the ideas in his new book. They’ve asked every one in the sales & marketing to go. Of course they’re right about accepting, as he’s the expert in their field. The problem is I wanted the opportunity to have a detailed discussion with him. I don’t want to just listen to a lecture with a lot of other people. So I’m going to reply saying I’m very sorry, and I’ve decided not to go.
