Received an email just now:
Dear Nicholas
We look forward to seeing you at our Breakfast Meeting tomorrow morning (19 November) with the Foreign Minister of Andorra, Mr Juli Minoves at the Xxx Hotel, Brussels from 08h00 to 09h30.
We would like to offer you a place at the Head Table on this occasion with the Foreign Minister. On registration one of our staff will be waiting to escort you to your place.
If for any reason you are unable to attend we would be grateful it you could let us know in advance as a courtesy to our distinguished speaker as well as for logistical reasons.
With best regards, etc etc
Well, that gives me an incentive to get up early in time for the meeting. I guess they must be scraping the bottom of the barrel for semi-presentable people to sit at the top table. Just hope he speaks English…
i’m glad it wasn’t the only book i used for research. but it was the first, and i did read it cover to cover. i haven’t read “ireland in the 20th century” yet. have you? is it worth reading?
