Right, so the minimum number of people eating is the number of people we have staying in Bosna -- Firstly, we need to make sure that if, for example 20 of the people actually staying in the Bosna decide not to bother with Lunch, that we can use their places for other people without paying any extra. > We can still save some money by making sure we know exactly how many > people from other hotels will eat each day. Hmm -- previous experience tends to suggest that we will not know that. At least not an accurate number, because a few people who are supposed to be eating there will not bother, or will spontaneously decide to go with some friends to a restaurant elsewhere with some friends. It would also be nice to allow people who have not arranged in advance to pay on the door, or collect some form of ticket from us (in exchange for payment) so they can continue a conversation with people that are registered to eat in Bosna that day. > > ** Is the cafeteria set up for taking varying numbers of people per > > day, with people paying at the door? > > For the ones who are not staying in hotels at all (not sponsored) > applies the same thing as for the ones that are not staying in hotel > Bosna. Does that mean they have to know this in advance?
