Another Metrology Tour
Hi guys
I have been talking to my son and he is prepared to do another tour of the "National Measurement Institute" sometime in the near future so I am looking for expressions of interest.
The tour will be during working hours as we will get to see everything that goes on there. He could possibly do a tour on a weekend but we wouldnt see as much as he could only show us his own area and security would be a problem everywhere else.
The previous tours have been in the afternoons and I would think that this will be continued.
The previous tours have been well received by those that attended so here is your chance.
Any takers?
Roger

Hi Roger,
Thanks for the opportunity, I would be very keen. Subject to my availability with my shifts, working hours should be fine.
Cheers,

From my POV, give me a date and I'll know instantly if I can make it. My shiftwork gives me a 6/8 chance that I will be able to make any given date. Cheers, Simon

This is going "above and beyond". I think this is the 4th or 5th tour. I think I did the 3rd tour. And I enjoyed it.
I'm shocking with names, but it might be a good time to work out if Roger, or his son enjoys a cool drink, on a hot day.
Availability to a Facility like like is hard to come by. I'd highly recommend the tour.
Put me down for a share, in a Red, Scotch, Slab. These blokes have gone over & beyond.
My best regards.
Phil.
