Utter waste of time...
I once went to a 9am meeting on an industrial estate in Slough which a client had put in my diary.

When I got there, I joined about fifteen other people in the room.

The meeting was cancelled after five minutes when, under a sustained assault of Paxman-esque questioning from his boss, the guy who'd organised it admitted that he'd had no idea what the meeting was supposed to achieve.

'I just thought we should have a meeting because we haven't had one for a while.' He said. 'What's wrong with that?'

Numpty...

We have meetings like that frequently.
They're quite popular; it means we get to sit around doing nothing except complain to each other for a bit. Without the meeting, we'd be sitting around doing nothing and complaining to ourselves, which is much less sociable.

"on an industrial estate" is completely unnecessary when placed before "in Slough".
