Ray, I have something on at 6, I find.
So let's set a deadline of 5 o'clock.
Or if you're through sooner, which you may be, just bring it over then.
I'll be here and then you'll be.
But I think 5 o'clock should be our latest time then because we'll need an hour to do the last nitpicking.
You've got to go out too, I know.
I may run into trouble getting to Connolly.
He's still up on the hill, and they don't know when he's going to be back.
Well, look, don't worry about it.
Don't worry about it.
I'll just let that one go.
When you called, I was just talking to George.
He says they're going ahead, and they've got the meeting set up and so forth.
Then you're working out that language.
I'm working that out with him.
Work that language out with him, and on the other one, just don't worry about it, because Connolly's already told me on the phone it's okay.
I just dropped the call to him.
Okay?
Good.
Thank you.
Bye.
