Scott Guthrie is coming to the UK for two days. He’ll be in Glasgow and Birmingham on March 25 and 26 respectively. Registration opened today, so click quickly for Glasgow and Birmingham tickets before they are sold out. Both events are free.

If you can’t make either of those, Microsoft are running a week of tech days in London to mark the launch of Visual Studio 2010 and to promote the new Windows 7 Phone platform. They are all in the Vue 6 Cinema Broadway in Fulham. [ Twitter tweme: #TechDays ]

If you’re a Silverlight fan, then Microsoft’s Silverlight Geek Jesse Liberty is doing a 9 day tour of UK with an extra in Dublin for those in Eire.
