At the risk of being a real nuisance - Geoff - is there any way you can swi=
tch the date to include Jean and Ana?  I will probably only be able to come=
 to this one meeting before I go to Mackay - whcih will be out of range - a=
nd I would really love to meet these two people as well before I go.

But feel free to slap my suggestion down if it is not on.  I know changing =
dates to suit individuals can become a nightmare.
