Meetings and presentations

I'd like to (1) o ________ this meeting by (2) w ________ you all. It's good to see so many (3) p ________ here today – in fact, this is probably the best (4) a ________ we've had at a meeting for a long time – and I'd like to thank you all in advance for (5) s ________ me. Well, we've got a lot on the (6) a ________ and I want to make as much (7) p ________ as possible in the next two hours or so. If we stick to the main (8) s ________, we should (9) g ________ everything and (10) a ________ all of our (11) g ________ and (12) o ________. I will (13) c ________ the meeting, as usual, but I really hope that you will all have something to (14) c ________, and if anything needs (15) c ________, please don't hesitate to (16) i ________ me (although not too often, I hope: the more (17) i ________ we can (18) a ________ today the better). I'll be (19) b ________ several important (20) m ________ during the meeting, beginning with those that I feel should take (21) p ________, before (22) s ________ the main (23) p ________ and making (24) r ________. This will be followed by an (25) o ________ session where you can give me your (26) o ________. And I'm sure you will all be delighted to hear that after the meeting (27) c ________, there will be drinks and snacks for everyone. Mr. Barker will be taking (28) n ________ and keeping the (29) m ________ of the meeting, and I will be using these to write my (30) r ________ afterwards, so if anyone has any (31) c ________, I suggest you talk to him and not to me! Now, before I get going, are there any (32) q ________ from the (33) f ________? Ever yone else at the meeting: Zzzzzzzzz
