Hello Nick and Grace,</div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
What time on Monday would you be free to meet? Afternoons tends to be easier for me regards parking. Would 3pm suit you at the Centre for WA History (Arts 1.23)?</div>

I had a difficulty with the document you sent. It appears in Rich Text Format on my laptop. Could you please convert it to Word?</div>

<div class="PlainText">Hi Associate Professor Bobbie, President Grace!<br>
<br>
Grace and I are free on Monday - could we meet you then?<br>
<br>
I hope we're successfully communicating the mid-sized scope we're aiming<br>
for - as a not-too-large but real, fully-paid, (maybe portfolio-building)<br>
job? and it would be wonderful if a current or past student/postgrad<br>
who's visited the Guild buildings, Tav, Cameron Hall... was involved. :)<br>
<br>
As a rough summary:<br>
<br>
We (the University Computer Club, UWA) are turning 50 years old this<br>
year, and were hoping to have a manuscript written, detailing our<br>
club's history. When we turned 25, we commissioned a 10,000 word piece,<br>
attached, by Emma n�e Hawkes, UWA alumna. We were hoping to have another<br>
manuscript made, roughly the same size - updating the last 25 years.<br>
<br>
A draft would be needed within the next four weeks, including a night of<br>
interviewing our club members at our 50th Anniversary Dinner on Saturday<br>
the 21st of September, 6pm, University Club. The historian's ticket and<br>
dinner would of course be covered by us.<br>
<br>
We have:<br>
- an email questionnaire prepared and can send the historian the answers<br>
(unless they want to ask more directly)<br>
- as well as the information we already have such as committee member names<br>
- we also have a folder of images that we would like the historian to<br>
choose from as they see fit to add to the manuscript<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Nick Bannon, UCC life member, ex-Secretary<br>
