Edcase,
8.30am
Like I said, at the crack of dawn. I was thinking more like the crack of lunch time.
I was thinking, and I might be wrong (it has happened before), that you either get there ridiculously early to get ahead of the crowds, or you should get there a little later than the masses to allow time for the queues to die down. Since most people will aim to get there for 9.30 when the show starts, arriving after 11 might make for an easier journey into the grounds. Just a thought.
Was thinking about leaving W London for 9.30-10am. If you want to meet up on the way then I could be persuaded to leave a little earlier. Met you at Surrey once, just before you moved out west.
Rich.

At the end of the day mine looked like it had just done the Paris-Dakaar!!!
Ed, saw you parked up (see was it you?) but not many others and none on the way there or back Was hoping for a bit of convoy action, oh well only 2 weeks to JAE - any southerners heading up to that?
