Hi Andy,
</p>

<p style="text-decoration:none;line-height:1.4;margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:0px;font-size:11pt;max-width:90ch;">
Thanks for the prompt, and sorry that we havenโ€™t got back to you sooner.
Weโ€™re currently rather caught up with O-Week, but Iโ€™ll make sure this gets
raised in our meeting later this week.
</p>

<p style="text-decoration:none;line-height:1.4;margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:0px;font-size:11pt;max-width:90ch;">
I have yet to discuss this with the rest of committee, but at a glance this
looks promising ๐Ÿ™‚.
</p>
