I know at least one person who is playing at the Leeds congress, then traveling to Edinburgh on the Monday to play in the CS Open :)

Good news Jon. I'll be at Leeds as you know and then playing in Edinburgh too. I'm looking forward to both events. Are you able to say who it is or could you send me a personal message.
