<div>Hi Aoife and Kersti,</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I'm really sorry to do this to you, but my flight from Australia
arrives into Zurich at 6.15am on Monday 10th of July, so I think it's
going to be much too tight for me to be able to present at 9.45am on
that day. Could you possibly schedule our talk at some point
later in the conference?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I'm really sorry that I didn't think to mention this earlier, as
I know from experience what a pain it is to have to keep
juggling the program!</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
<div><br>
Rachel</div>
<div><br></div>
