Meetings and presentations

I'd like to o_____ this meeting by w_____ you all. It's good to see so many p_____ here today - in fact, this is probably the best a_____ we've had at a meeting for a long time - and I'd like to thank you all in advance for s_____ me.

Well, we've got a lot on the a_____ and I want to make as much p_____ as possible in the next two hours or so.

If we stick to the main s_____ ,we should g_____ everything and a_____ all of our g_____ and o_____.

I will c_____ the meeting, as usual, but I really hope that you will all have something to c_____, and if anything needs c_____,

please don't hesitate to i_____ me (although not too often, I hope: the more i_____ we can a_____ today the better).

I'll be b_____ several important m_____ during the meeting, beginning with those that I feel should take p_____,

before s_____ the main p_____ and making r_____.

This will be followed by an o_____ session where you can give me your o_____.

And I'm sure you will be delighted to hear after the meeting c

Mr Barker will be taking n_____ and keeping the m_____ of the meeting, and I will be using these to write my r_____ afterwards, so if anyone has any c_____ , I suggest you talk to him and not to me!

Now, before I get going, are there any q_____ from the f_____ ? No? Good. Right, well I'll begin.

The first point I want to d_____ is next month's c_____. As you know, the
v_____ we have chosen is the Royal Eynsham Hotel in Oxfordshire.

We've invited several s_____ to make p_____ on various aspects of the trade, and we're expecting over 200 d_____ from our offices around Europe.

Now, of course, there's always the possibility that some major players won't be able to make it, so we need to make a c_____ plan that we can i_____ if things go pear-shaped.
