[Alex Comninos]

Dear All, 

There is an error in the invitation I sent, the interview is  May 15th 1300 UTC , An hour before I said so, as I had forgotten that London is currently GMT+1/UTC+1.

The time is London 1400/UTC 1300.

The info in the event bright link is correct. 

Sorry for the error, 

Best, 
Alex


I am transitioning to a new email address: hello at alex.africa
