FWIW, I know my mother has booked some largish meetings outside of London. Of course, I don't remember offhand how large, or, for that matter, what kind of numbers you're looking at. Go to Brighton. It's nicer than London, on the sea, easy to get to from Gatwick, and has more pubs per head of population than any other town in Britain (I think, or maybe it was more pubs per square mile). It has conference facilities for all sizes (although I've no idea how booked up they get). And it's 55 minutes from London by train. And its handy for me. And me! dj
