In which day is Halloween celebrated（)？

e you've all registered and obtained your name badges and information packs. I would like to point out some additional information and changes to the agenda you will find in your packs. The four seminar workshops are now as follow.

Room Six—" Marketing".

Bishop's Hall One— "Communications", which re- places "Taxation".

Bishop's Hall Two—"Strategic Planning", which now includes small business as well as large companies.

Room Five—"Human Resources".

I'll just run through that again. "Marketing" is in Room Six. In Bishop's Hall One we have a change to the original programme and "Taxation" has been replaced by "communications". "Strategic Planning" in Bishop's Hall Two now includes small businesses and Room Five is "Human Resources" We will stay in the Convocation Hall for the first morning session which runs from nine-thirty till eleven o'clock, when we shall all meet up in the Memorial ball for coffee and biscuits.

The eleven-thirty session will be held in Bishop' s Hall One.

A buffet lunch will be held in the self-service restaurant from one to two. We are hoping that this system will prove quicker than waitress service and ensure a prompt start to the afternoon session which begins in Bishop's Hall Two at two o'clock and runs to three-thirty. Please note, however, that we shall be in Room Five for the four to five- thirty session.

Tea and biscuits will be brought to you between three-thirty and for o'clock.

At five-thirty we invite you all to the Assembly Hall for an hour's general forum. There will be time for questions based on the day's sessions. This session in the Assembly hall is intended to give you an opportunity to clarify and problem areas which may have arisen during the day and to ask any questions you may have. There will be a general exhibition of books and resource materials in the Abbey Room which will be open for the whole day. Anyone in- terested in purchasing any of these materials will be able to order them at the various stands.

Please feel free to visit the Abbey Room at any time during the day up until the Centre closes at seven- thirty p.m.

May I draw your attention to the fact that notes ac- companying the seminars will be provided by the speakers. It is therefore not necessary...

？You will hear an introduction to a course in Business Management Today.

？As you listen, fill in the information for question 1—12, complete the notes using up to three words or a number.

？After you have listened once, replay the recording.

en try the world's coldest hotel in Jukkasjarvi in the north of Sweden. But go in winter or all you'll find is a pool of water, because the hotel melts every spring!

The man who runs the Attic Hall Hotel is Nils Yngve Bergqvist. He built his first ice building for an art exhibition in 1991 and he designed the present hotel—over 200 meters square—himself. It took workmen about two months to pile 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden base. As the weather got colder, the snow froze and then they removed the base. The whole building and everything in it are made of snow—except for the wooden front door. There's a theatre which Nils uses for a jazz club, a radio station and a large ice bar. As you can imagine, hot drinks are popular with the guests! The rooms have no doors; there's no furniture, no heating and everyone sleeps on ice beds. But the 800 people who stayed at the hotel this winter seemed to like it. If you want to stay in one of the ten ice rooms, it will cost you about ￡30 a night. You will receive a survival certificate from the manager.

When the winter's over, Nils holds his annual contest to predict the day that the hotel will fall. The person that guessed the day correctly last year receives a large painting from an ARTic Hall exhibition. Nils's ice hotel is becoming world-famous and he loves his work.. He's already excited about his next project — an ice hotel that will have more complicated architectural features and, he says, will be bigger and better.
