Thanks Fiona, I am cc'ing in Phil who will let relevant people at UEA know. Please can you
get press office to advise if I will have to be in during next week or whether solely being
on my mobile will suffice. I am flexible on the TOIL next week Tuesday onwards (land Monday
at 06.00) but would like to know by the time I leave if poss. Just to remind that my mobile
is 07834034418.

Cheers

Peter

Peter,

Sorry for the delay. The head of the press office was off sick for a few days and they have
been incredibly busy.

Yes, the Press Office will go ahead with a press release and we will contact UEA to make
sure we have a consistent message.

Will let you see any relevant communication.

Fiona

intentional silence? I need a decision ASAP to plan next week and let Phil Jones and UEA
know. Please request resolution on whether we will run something or not so wheels can be
set rolling if necessary.

Thanks

Peter
