Hey All.

Parine arrived, safe and sound - although they did give her some hassle in the airport (despite US passport). She said they asked her loads of questions and took her email address. Effing bastard-faces. Today I am angry, as I'm sure you all are.

Anyway, I got her settled into Erlend's. She loves it!

Natalia from the BBC called up when we were going through the welcome pack. She was being pushy, so provisionally we told her that Parine and Omar could do an interview on Friday morning, at the Edinburgh studio from 9:30-10:30am. The condition was that (a) she double checked with Omar that he's up for it, (b) she waited for confirmation from me/Duncan on this.

Can we confirm?

Hi Parine,

 

Good to speak to you just now.

 

I just managed to touch base with Omar, and I am hoping to get both of you into the BBC Edinburgh studio for 0930 am on Friday 22nd March.

 

I will have a conversation with Omar tomorrow to get a sense of how we structure the interview, and will email you both with logistical details ie:

 

1)      Address of Edinburgh studio & phone number of who will meet you there

2)      Taxi pickup details – whether it’s from your respective hotels (I have the addresses) of whether it is from somewhere else. I assume you both want to be returned to your hotels.

 

Parine – I understand you will be getting a UK SIM, in the meantime I will communicate with you via Yasmin’s Mob: 07727643849 or via email.

 

Looking forward to hearing the interview, which will be with Newshour presenter Jamie Coomarasamy.

 

Enjoy Edinburgh!

 

All the best,

 

Natalia

Hi Natalia, Omar:

Great chatting with you Natalia.

Omar had just texted me that he arrives in Edinburgh on the 21st at 4 pm.

Could you make that interview later so he can be with us??

I am cc'ng Omar here so he is in the loop.

Omar, Natalia is working on an interview for the bbc news hour and if the timing works would like to include you, that is if you have the time?

 

But now u have each others emails and Natalia you asked for Omar's phone number.

Omar with your permission, phone number is :

 

Keep me posted.

 

Natalia, you also asked about my travel details to London, as I said I will be travelling from Beirut on the 19th and just checked my ticket and 

Hope to be arriving on 19 Mar at 16:30pm and departure from Edinburgh on March 23rd to London at 9:30 pm and could be available on the 24th in London but let me know so I can make arrangements for the 24th.

thanks.

Best, 

Parine

Hi

Glad she arrived safely.

I think actually they have already been discussing this with Duncan. I was meant to be getting a call today but didn't so guess you did instead.

I think they should have confirned it with omar today, didn't she say that in the email? Lets follow up on this tomorrow.

And yeah, much reason to be angry today. Lets hope this festival can have some impact and this won't always be the way of the world...
