but how?

how should i word it?

my latest attempt is:

Hello .......

Thanks for taking the time to talk to me a little further about the opportunity at .......

I could easily meet you at any time on 1st, 2nd or 3rd April.

I have spoken to my manager here in Rennes and I'm confident that a solution is possible with regards to my two months notice.

I understand that you also have constraints in terms of time-scale and budget for this recruitment so maybe a phone interview next week would be a good alternative to a preliminary face-to-face meeting.
