 * thanks marcus, just did that, it seems that not all permissions were enabled,
   since tables weren’t being created at all. So (sigh) finally, em is up and running.
   Many thanks for all the help.

 * Marcus, first, thank you for all your help. I so appreciate it, and can’t help
   but feel that I’m not entirely sure what the problem is yet. how do I resolve
   the db issues with my host? I’ve contacted the server host now to try to see 
   if they can help me. I’ve looked at permissions, tried installing other plug-
   ins, but from what I can gather, the tables just aren’t being written. This said
   in my half-state of ignorance.
 * Cheers, d

 * Thanks Marcus, ideally the location would be needed for the bookings, I only 
   figured if it might be a way around the problem. Thank you for the help, though
   I’m not sure I understand it. I’ve installed DBManager, but i’m still unsure 
   of how I might find and delete the em tables, and this command
 * `DELETE FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE '%dbem_%';`
 * do i run it as an SLQ query.
 * Very sorry, am not so familiar with SLQ or php for that matter, will continue
   googling, thanks for the help!

 * how did you clear the tables? and do you know if there’s anyway to create an 
   event in that case without a location?
