If you do this again, is there any chance of it being outside of London? I'd love to attend but I'm a non-driver (yes I actively avoided learning because of my ecological beliefs

) and it costs an absolute fortune to get to London on public transport (?80+ on the train

).

I regularly get in and out of London for ?20 return from Bristol. You just have to book a week in advance, or are you a very long way from London?

Just invite people local to you to get in touch, and have them come round your house. That's how this one got arranged, there wasn't any "official" PowerSwitch organisation, just a few emails between people. I agree there should be some outside London - I'd be happy to host an Oxford one some time later in the year, but there are also a number of people around the West, and Leeds, and Manchester too. I guess there's more in the North and Scotland as well.

Don't forget we have a map here, though we could do with more people signing up on it:
