With reference to Colerne dates. Most Colerne dates will be Sundays. If the 'key person' cannot do the Sunday they may elect to hold it on the Saturday. Likewise if the forecast for the Sunday is much worse than the Saturday the date may be changed. Emails to this effect will be sent out before the event.
Hope this all makes sense ? Any queries - give me a call - Dave on 01179672323 or 07714153377
