I got a taste of my own medicine as I played squash against a younger layer. He out played me with craft even though he is not as mobile as me. I come home still thinking about the games, and realise that this must be how the others feel after their games with me. Lesson learnt - when you have the upper hand, take it and keep it, and not feel inferior to him. This Thursday - I will try and combat again.
On a brighter note, Au comes over after telling Freddie that he wants to reduce the GFA for the Bar Barn. While this is not normally good news for designers, I see this as a good thing - the client is reviewing our design in detail. When he arrives, the first thing he does was to confirm our fees (taking the higher number rather than the lower). He mentions that he does not want the reduction in area to affect our fees. That is the other positive note to the morning's meeting.

| I reduced the GFA by scaling down the overall form of the building, and letting that decide on the building grids. This enables me to retain the overall proportion of the building which I rather like. |
