I was most impressed by your new power stations at Castle Peak many thanks for laying on such an interesting visit. It was a pity about the weather, but the company umbrellas came in extremely handy; I hope your chimney stack suffered no lasting damage from its lightning strike.

It was good to see you, too, at Peter Heap's lunch. certainly took away with me some interesting, and broadly encouraging, impressions of China from business' points of view.
