Hi miki,

your analogy has several flaws.

AM is already being paid, by way of substancial director's salary.
Your proposal suggests we (the owners of the dwelling) pay him a bonus, in advance, for work which may never be completed.
I believe your first instinct was correct. Snouts in the trough was my first thought and still is.

I'm having flashbacks to the Fawlty Towers series where Basil has German guests and instructs his staff "don't mention the war"
I suspect in this scenario Basil is being played by AM and the war has been replaced by Fausse Point.

You have demonstrated your support for VIL and AM in the past. I have no problem with that but please don't let current hype (Bongo, Tunissia etc) cloud your judgement. Nothing has changed, we've heard it all before via VIL's fantasy announcements. The directors need to first prove they have earned a reward, not the other way around!

Season's greetings to all
Caznac
