Dear colleague,

I may convey my very best thanks for the tremendous hospitality you have shown during our visit in Tirana and the perfect organisation of this visit by you and your staff.

Again I may repeat my heartily invitation for your return visit next spring and may offer as most convenient dates from my side April 24.-26. or May 15.-17.

I do not want you to hurry with your decision but may draw your attention to the fact of Austria's presidency of the EU in 2006 and the organisational problems of late bookings. Therefore please let me know as soon as possible what date would be convenient for you and whom you will be accompanied by.

Yours,
