Yes, just the square of white to project the image on.  What about 
black-out/curtains (mine-ju, it may be getting dark by then in October, 
anyway, so just turning out a few lights would do)?  Is there even a bit 
of white wall that would act as screen?
I'll bring all the other stuff, but would very much appreciate a 
reminder a couple of weeks before, as London is a long way to go back 
for anything I've forgotten.
