Both in the past tense...
Yes I had sussed that. I am asking for confirmation if she actually did speak, or if the text for the Sunday gig is a simple cut-and-paste of who was expected to speak. The alarm bells are that, as mentioned above, so much as a fart prompts FB/Twitter posts. Also, looking at Steppes Travel FB page we can see lots of mention of the other speakers but not TCT. On top of that, her image is on the advertising poster but not on the Steppes page now.
