matt crowhurst 0 Posted May 1, 2009 think thats why im going to drive there unless someone has a spare coach ticket they no longer need? if i do drive is it quicker to go M25 and then A2 or the M11 and then the north circular??????????? may have some space in the car if people are struggling getting there mind you im going in my old banger which although reliable does have quite a few knocking noises!!!!!!!!!!!

rjwc22 0 Posted May 1, 2009 Depends what time on the Sunday you are going. If it is earlyish then would say A406 but if you are going to be on it mid morning then would go M25. Should not be too much traffic as most people will abandon London for the bank holiday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blofield Canary 12 Posted May 1, 2009 If you are travelling by train go via Cambridge int oKings Cross. Only takes about 10 minutes more than normal route and no busses or Scum to worry about Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
