Great thanks Mike.  I know someone (my old boss actually) who is into 
amateur radio (I guess it's a part of being a broadcast engineer for a 
radio company ;-) so I'll see if he knows anything about these events. 
  I do remember him mentioning about going to an event in Dartmoor.

We've been discussing on our local LUG about putting together a computer 
fair (on a smaller scale) so I wonder if maybe the folks who arrange the 
event in Dartmoor might be able to advise about things like insurance 
and venue costs.
