    I've not quite worked this one out yet...

    I'm going to aim for this parcark...

    Car Park Finder - NCP Car Parks

    24 hours, 5 mins walk... £2.50 all day.

    The ones around the station are extortionate.

    That seems like a good summary. I had a splendid time and I think a good time was had by all.
    That picture Bazz posted of Maddock was scarily accurate!

    Cheers for organising it Tig, and hope to make the next one!

    Great Organizing skills as usual Rai
    Followed by the usual ordeal I face in trying to get to these things wether it being getting to London in under 2 hours, or this time going to a car park that doesnt exist!

    Nice to put more names to faces, + at some point over the next day or 2 il stick the pics ive got up in a seperate thread, although I think Funk's got the majority of them!
