That's great news Paul

The UK team are bubbling with excitement and send our commiserations to our 
Finnish friends.

I think our dates are carved in stone as 17th to 21st September 2013 but I want 
to double check with the venue before confirming that.

We will get our team into gear in the next week or so and start that dialogue 
with you over the budget. Will you be assigning a board member to liaise with 
us?

Thank you to all the selection group for your confidence in us

Best

Steven
