email from Nalini re audiovisual equipment.
I've at last managed to get some response from Indu of Keels regarding the audio-visual equipment. But I'm afraid she couldnt give a guarantee that all will be well. She said they are in the throes of refurbishing & still everything was in a state of flux & couldnt guarantee that we could hold the sessions at the Lodge. Was surprised to know there may be 150 attending (including spouses)! But she assured me that we neednt worry as she has made alternative arrangements with The Village where they should be able to accommodate us! Also said we may have to pay extra for the multi-media facilities, but couldnt give even a rough estimate.So there's much more work to be done here.Thought I'd better keep you all informed.Nalini
