The delegates of Sydney 2000 have been a great help for Beijing and all of us to prepare for 2008. Sandy Hollway, David Churches and Eric Winton have become good friends over the years and we never fail to meet when they are in town. They have now a permanent representation in Beijing though the Sydney Beijing Olympic Secretariat (with Simon Cousins). The initiative is supported by the New South Wales Government and now also the Victoria Government.
Just some days ago we paid a visit together to my former employer, BSAM, who owns the famous Watercube, designed by the Australian Architect firm PTW, to review the progress of the project.
On 1 November 2006 Sandy and David made a presentation during the C-Zone Conference, interesting as usual.
