A devastating fire has gutted the Falmouth Beach Hotel, the venue for MEI's Falmouth-based conferences. These photos were taken yesterday at the height of the fire, which was fanned by extremely strong winds. More details can be found on the
BBC News site.
We are only seven weeks away from
Biohydromet '12, but we assure everyone who has already registered, or who intends to register, that the conference will go ahead as planned, but at an alternative nearby venue in Falmouth. Full details will be announced as soon as available on the
conference website. If, of course, you have booked accommodation at the Falmouth Beach Hotel, you will need to seek alternative
accommodation.
As to next year's Falmouth events,
SRCR '13,
Physical Separation '13 and
Computational Modelling '13, all we can say at this stage is that they will go ahead, and we will announce where as soon as we can arrange a venue.
