Dear all,
I am so sorry I was not able to be there and thanks to Arne for these
summaries and for all who made it happen.
I was supposed to be there and present on the Monday, but managed to find
myself stuck in hospital in London instead :( I am fine and fully
recovered, but very very sorry to miss you all who were there.
All the best,
Kate
