Indeed it was. It was quite an expensive venue for the
weekend though.
The Science Museum presumably have conference halls and the like for
hire, but again being in London it's likely to be expensive...
There's the
venue that the Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club usually use for
the yearly Wakefield RISC OS shows - Thornes Park Athletics Stadium in
Wakefield, West Yorkshire. WROCC usually rent most of the ground floor
(indoor athletics track) and use a room on the top floor for catering - it
seems to work for them but I'm not sure about room sizes and such - I just
attent the events :)
Then there's the Birmingham Motorcycle Museum (ISTR the ARM Club do their
computer shows there), though I'm not sure if they've finished rebuilding
yet.
If there is a VCF or similar event in the North of England (i.e. within an
hour's drive of Leeds), I'd be very tempted to attend. I was thinking about
going to CGE-UK, but a rail ticket from Leeds to London isn't exactly cheap.
Later.
