0"On" wouldn't be incorrect, but I rarely hear it before "this." "We're having a meeting on this 01u00coming02u00 Friday," would be a little more acceptable - that is, with the "on." Informally, you can even say, "The meeting is Friday." Sorry I don't have any rules to offer. Perhaps someone else does.0-

00I'm not sure how the British "11 April" is read. In addition to "Let's meet on the eleventh of April," in Am. English we'd also say, "Let's meet on April eleventh." I've never heard anyone say, "Let's meet on eleven April." (I'm not sure - perhaps military)02br

0Hi Cogar, 02br
02br
00Use the possessive with the -ing, absolutely! (I'm afraid to say 01i00gerund02i00 or 01i00present participle02i00 anymore - discussed this yesterday with CJ - see 01u00Him doing and His doing02u00 in General English Grammar)02br

00But you'd say, "I am
