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.
