YOUR TELNO 1483: VISIT BY PATRICK DUFFY AND PETER CORTERIER

DESPITE NUMEROUS EFFORTS. WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE FINALLY TO CONFIRM WITH MESSRS DUFFY AND CORTERIER THAT THEY ARE CONTENT WITH THE PROGRAMME. HOWEVER THEIR ASSISTANT HAS SAID THAT HE THINKS IT IS EXCELLENT. HE HAS ALSO SAID THAT HE IS SURE THE TWO WILL WISH TO TAKE UP THE OFFER OF A HARBOUR CRUISE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE CALL ON THE CBF. WE THINK THEREFORE THAT YOU MAY GO FIRM ON THE ARRANGEMENTS.

2. THEY WILL BE STAYING AT THE NEW WORLD HOTEL.
