Now that we've completely derailed the thread, what the hell...
It's a good project, but I'm a bit surprised as funding for cultural stuff has been a victim of increasing budget deficit following the economic downturn. For example, the Royal Flemish Ballet is proposed to be merged with the Royal Opera to cut operating costs (and the power struggle going between the two entities in anticipation of redundancies and powersharing is intense).
Anyway, don't worry about just lording it up. My wife has had her share of experience working with associate architects for projects abroad. You will not be spared the joy of sorting out cock ups. The added advantage is that there is yet another party involved that will be happy to point a finger at you when things go wrong. One upside in this instance is that the site is not that long a journey from London...
