The job included making all the building-drawings, deliberating with an architect/designer about the construction-details and calculations, arranging for the necessary (environmental) investigations, applying for the building-permit and frequently talk to the local authorities about this application, writing the work-description/specifications and detailed work-planning and putting together a long-list for selecting the different building-companies and talking to these potential builders asking them to make an offer. All these activities did Patrick with complete focus and to my full satisfactions and content. I thank him for that and wish him luck privately and in his future career and hope to stay in contact with him." and "Ik heb Patrick leren kennen als een daadkrachtig persoon.
