There is no need to officially register to attend the conference but we will post further details on the web in due course asking anyone who would like (and who intends to) join the conference dinner to let us know, just so we can get an idea of numbers for booking-purposes. The dinner will be in a nearby restaurant with a good variety of choices. We will let you know soon whether there will be a fixed price, what it is, and so forth.

If you have any questions about the conference, don't hesitate to ask.

Many thanks,
Simon Robertson (SPPA President)
