Hi Markos, |
90 |
I'm contacting you to let you know that I'm still interested in your |
91 |
mentoring. |
92 |
I find it very hard to concentrate on the quizzes you sent me, as I'm deeply |
93 |
at work. |
94 |
I'm returning home everyday at ~22:00. |
95 |
I also have a family and a small 1 year old child, that needs my attention |
96 |
;-) |
97 |
I did small part of the test. |
98 |
Do you want me to send you the test as is and we'll take it few questions at |
99 |
a time, or you need it full? |
100 |
|

Have a nice weekend, |
