I really hope you get the grant so the project can come to fruition. You and Adam have always worked well as team, long may it continue. From reading all your previous posts there has been a lot of positive comments about your work from different people. All you need is a bit of luck on your side so your ambitions, hopes, and dreams can become reality. | |
