42
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it worth noting that you'd like to hear from

Speaker 1: people whose plans change maybe they.

44
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 2: Were coming, because last year I had twenty four people

45
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: not turn up that had registered on the day and

46
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 2: only one rang me and told me so It's just

47
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 2: that because a lot of the people are older, I

48
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: always worry that something might have happened to them, of course,

49
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 2: and we don't have the people to dectually go and check.

50
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 2: And I mean, okay, I know that you might get

51
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 2: a better offer or someone might invite you, but quick

52
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 2: phone call or Facebook message would be really appreciated so

53
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 2: that we know not to expect you.
