Hi, it’s Emily Parker in Marketing. I was at the Carlton Hotel yesterday for a sales training meeting. I thought it would be a very suitable place to hold the shareholders’ meeting you’re arranging. I heard you’re still looking for somewhere. They’ve recently refurbished all their meeting rooms. I was in a seminar room - it was too small for your event, but I looked at the conference hall and the VIP lounge and either would be perfect - oh, except the conference hall’s booked on the twenty-fifth of October, so it doesn’t leave us any choice. Anyway, they’re both large rooms with comfortable seating, and it’s possible to have a sound system at no extra cost. We’d have to bring a display stand of our own if we wanted one. Assuming you want to go ahead with the twenty-fifth, I mentioned to the Events Manager there that we might want to book, so you’ll need to talk to him, rather than the General Manager in the bookings office. The number’s three-five-seven-two-oh-nine. Bye.
