The meeting on Friday will be in the Simon Building (there will be signs on the door). We are in the ECU suite which is at the top of the building so people will have to jump in the lift. Maps and directions to the department/Simon building can be found at http://www.manchester.ac.uk/visitors/travel/maps/ The Simon building is number 59 on the campus map. For people arriving by train, the easiest way to get there is to take the 147 bus from Piccadilly - follow the signs for the taxi rank and the bus stop is on the main road just beyond it. Cost is 1 pound for a day return. The bus stops at the end of Brunswick Street next to the KRO Bar where we'll go for lunch. If people are driving, best to park in the Aquatics Centre car park and then walk to Brunswick Street which takes about 10 minutes If anyone wants to call in, we're going to use the ESNET ad-hoc system. That allows 50 phone connections and we can also stream video and sound if anyone wants to watch but not say anything. To use this (local rate call) do the following: 1) Call 08452 449449 2) After you hear the message "Welcome to TeleDiscount" dial 001 510 8837860 followed by # 3) When asked for the "Extension Number" dial 88 22542385 (that's 88 CALICEUK if you prefer to remember it that way) followed by # You should then be connected.
