My apologies for re-sending this message, however, I am receiving a 
number of enquiries as to the closing date for booking on this 
conference.  It is always very helpful if I am advised of an intention to 
attend as early as possible to facilitate catering and room reservations. 
It is occasionally possible, however, to accept a last minute booking -  
providing it falls within the estimated requirement.  

Please do contact me if you think this may affect you

Many thanks

Michele
