Subject: Organisation of Possible Lecture by Thierry Gueorgiou

Some weeks ago, someone suggested that it would be really good if Thierry Gueorgiou could be persuaded to give a talk one evening at JK2015. I thought arrangements had been made to ask him at the Portugal O Meeting, but that never happened.

 

Richard Tiley has enquired whether the Coronation Hall in Ulverston is available and currently it is, on both the Saturday and probably the Sunday. The cost for the Saturday is £150, perhaps a bit more for the Sunday, as the Hall is normally closed on that day. Thierry might want to charge a fee; we could sell tickets.

 

Carol McNeill is organising the showing of a film on the Saturday night. It would be unreasonable to clash with that enterprising arrangement, so I suggest we go for the Sunday evening.

 

Apparently, Thierry went to Sweden to train after he was in Portugal. I imagine we can get his email address from Sue Birkinshaw, but otherwise he may be contactable in Sweden via Cat Taylor via her dad, Paul, whose email address I have.

 

I do not have time to take this social activity on. I need someone to offer to contact Thierry and then to make the arrangements, sort out publicity, sell tickets, etc. If you would be prepared to offer, or know someone else who you think would be prepared to offer, please come back to me quickly.

 

Many thanks

 

Dick
