A cup of coffee for you!

Thanks for starting a page for The Institution of Surveyors Victoria. I've toned it down a little - remember that articles should be written in a neutral tone, avoiding what's called puffery in order to maintain a Neutral point of view. I hope that you can continue to contribute with pages like this one. Klbrain (talk) 11:27, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi Dinaa

Not sure what copyright you are referring to. If it is reference #40 concerning Ray Holmes, that was largely written by me and published by ISV back in 2019. I hd alot to do with the submission to the Council of teh Order of Australia

Greatful for your further advice - if you think I should re-work to remove any perceptions.
