Alastair, I am a professor at Sydney University, and writing a book on Rupert Murdoch. I am coming to London from Monday May 12 to Saturday May 17, and would very much like to talk with you your views on Murdoch, experiences with his organisation etc. I realise you must get lots of requests, and have no idea who I am. The only person I can think of who might know us both is Prof Geoff Gallop. Anyway I would really like the chance to get together while I am in the UK. thank you.
