Hello.

Yes, sir.
Oh, I, Steve came in, I took my C-Maria before I got up.
Do you know what, do I need any guidance on that?
I don't have any reading on it at all, except that he says it's purely personal and will only take a few minutes.
And actually, he is not seeking anything, doesn't want to, you know, has no problems or anything like that.
And I think it's, it's,
Just his feeling that he's, once every few years, he's got to get in.
To my knowledge, we've covered all of the things.
He doesn't have any beefs about the Stafford head at the moment, has he?
No, he had a lot of beefs during the campaign about the way it was being run.
He didn't like the McGregor operation and all.
Those were ironed out on specific grounds as they went along.
Would you make those two?
Some to me, some to Fred.
He worked well with Fred.
Fine.
Over there.
Okay.

All right.
