”Nice to meet you and thank you for your kind words! Unfortunately these are tough times and I do blame myself at least partially for the crisis that we find ourselves in this time. I should have done better and further research into the financier to ensure the robustness of the project. Nonetheless what is done is done. We can only look forward now.” Eden exasperates.
