That sounds like a good idea Nick, might consider it myself 

Note that the parking is horrendous. 

And if exhibitors are charged entry, the organisers can go and enjoy carnal relations with their mothers.

Must admit, I wasn't impressed when I went to it this year. Very small room with few stalls, and as Lee said, expensive parking a LONG way from the venue.

Leeds city centre is one of the most catastrophically awful places to drive around that I've ever been to. It isn't even unfamiliarity either: I have a friend who lives there, who I've visited many times, and before that I used to have to take a rare motorbike there for dealer repairs. I was so glad when my friend moved a bit further out: now I can just aim for the ring road and if I get to it at the wrong junction, just go around it until I get to the right one.

Leeds isn't much better as a pedestrian either.  Some good bars though, from what I remember.
