of looking for venues
MAN 1: Oh, I see
MAN 2: So, I understand from your website that you offer conference facilities and I’m just
phoning to discuss the possibility of holding the conference on your premises
MAN 1: I see Well, firstly could I ask you how many people will be attending?
MAN 2: In the region of 50 to 60 Would that be a problem for you? If so, there’s not much point in
continuing
MAN 1: No, Ms Jones, not at all The main conference room can seat over 200, and we have a
smaller room which accommodates 90 That may suit you best Regarding accommodation,

staying in the hotel? All of them?
MAN 2: Yes, that’s right
MAN 1: OK Regarding food and refreshments What will you require?
MAN 2: Well, we were hoping for a reception on the Friday evening with wine, beer and soft drinks,
along with some light finger food Then we’d require breakfast, lunch and dinner on the Saturday and breakfast and lunch on the Sunday On the Sunday night we’d prefer a buffet style dinner so we can mingle more easily And then we’d also require breakfast on the Monday morning
MAN 1: I see So the standard menus would be OK for all meals except Sunday evening
MAN 2: Yes, I think so
MAN 1: And, if I may, one more question
MAN 2: Yes, of course
