Contract negotiations

Well, my ear is about to fall off and my blood pressure will return to normal next week, but we appear to be moving forward. The sticking point was still liquidated damages (LDs) and the build time but most other items can be sorted.

PDs went up to $300 but build time is still 330 days. All of the items can be sorted with amendments and we can move on from there. Unfortanately all of this had to be done through multiple phone calls and complete refusal to speak directly to the person who makes the final decision.

The extra $11k was another big issue that arrised from the 30 metre tree that doesn't exist. This can hopefully be sorted with some more srict contract terms which I will now have to go home and write. We'd better do one last review of everything as this is probably our last chance.
