I've changed the subject line to see if it grabs
anyone's attention :)
Anyone in the UK have experience of setting up a
similar idea? I know people
> on the Sinclair QL mailing list who put up yearly
bashes in church halls

No experience at all - though I'd also be happy to
help. It strikes me that
having someone on board who's done similar size events would be a big
advantage.
Can anyone comment on how much effort and how many bodies it's taken to
organize a small(ish) event like this?
Get an early start - at least 6 Month ahead for the first installment.
Get at least 2-3 People helping to advertise, and maybe one for other
preperations. At the event you'll need between 6-10 _dedicated_ people
helping - and one of it should have serious experience with such an event
(if it's not you).
In general it would be great to have at least attended one or two VCF as
regular visitor, and have been a helper (for the whole time) to another
VCF, preferable the California or Munich event - desprite the great work
done at VCF-MW and VCF-East, due their size, the larger ones give a wider
range of insight what to think about.
Beside that, be prepared to give up all spare time for at least 2 month
prior to VCF-GB
Gruss
