parking info at Thetford , please help

Recommended Posts

not impressed with the trains, in addition to buses from Peterborough to Norwich, there is now buses between Doncaster and Selby . Was meant to be driving,so no early bird train ticket so £72 for the wonderful 4 1/2 hour train journey 75% of which is a bus. To be fair this used to be everyweek a few years back so it''ll be like the good old days! (Hoping for a better score line though)

Ill be waiting for the surprise by the train staff when the coaches get stuck in traffic after the game and people miss connections. They seem to struggle with the idea that people may want to travel by train to a football game.

[quote user="Pi$$ed As A Mattress"]You will need help if you park in Thetford. It is a dirty hole where you are more than likely to lose your wheels. I would rather park in Kabul, much safer

 

A huge exaggeration I think!

 

Yes Thetford has its problems but then again so does every town of a similar size!

 

Thetford isn''t that bad!

[quote user="Kidderminster Canary"]Thank you all for your help, I will be in the snakepit tomorrow with my sister in law, she could be the girl in my aviater, then again perhaps not[/quote]

You could always leave your car on the A11 single-carridgeway through Elveden Forest, that''s like a car park at times!

I hope your brother doesn''t mind you putting a picture of his wifes bazookas on this message board lol

[/quote]The only problem with the town is the center desperately needs redevelopment. Woolies was the only shop worth going in now it''s all charity shops.
