As an overseas visitor, we hope you are able to attend and therefore would like you to register. If you cannot attend, perhaps you could forward this to a colleague?02br

00It is my opinion that it is acceptable to say «the meeting will be held on the 25th - 27th April 2006». It is also correct to say «the meeting will take place on the 25th of February».02br
