Sugarcraft / Cake decorating classes in the North East?

Hi all,
I'm in need of some advice. I consider it an OS topic, so I posted here first, but appreciate it falls between a few stools - do move if you think it would be best.
Some of you may remember my adventures in anniversary cake for my parent's 30th earlier this year. My brother and his fiancee have just asked me to make their WEDDING cake :eek::eek::eek:
Obviously I'm delighted they liked the cake I made for M&D enough to ask me to make their wedding cake, but I'm also feeling crushed by the burden of responsibility for something so important.
The flaws in the anniversary cake were legion, and I would like to do so much better for the wedding.
I've been hunting on the web for sugarcraft classes near where we live, and I'm coming up blank. All the local adult ed classes started in September and have now finished. No local college is planning a course.
Does anyone know of anyone offering sugarcraft / cake decorating classes in a reasonable distance? I could probably go as far as York if it was a weekend course.
Many thanks for all your help

I've moved this to the England board to see if you can get some other ideas
Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men :cool:
