cleeson7 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Im off to wembley for the second show and im interested how people are getting there and where people are staying etc.. I leave my little town of nailsea at about 8am on a train which changes at Bristol Temple meads and then goes straight to London paddington. I then have a few hours in London so will probably do a bit of sight seeing. I then have a check in at 3pm a the travel lodge hotel at 3pm and at which point I will dump my bags in the room and head to wembley. I will then return to my hotel after the concert and wont leave London till about 8pm on sunday as we wanted to get the cheapest train tickets possible so we have really turd times. O well! Where u all coming from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r25d01 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Around 3-3:30 am: Being split up in 2 cars because we are five people and don't want to pay for parking at the airport. 06:50: start flying to London 7:00 arriving in London We'll be walking around a bit, probably visit the Abbey road and shoot photos there walking like the Beatles... Of course we'll also be visiting some music stores. We might also be doing some shopping to smooth our girlfriends that have to bear all the talk about music :-D Later we'll be sleeping at the YHA St. Paul's where we've got a 5 beds room. On the next day we'll be walking through London again, having a great lunch and then my best friend and me will go to the first Wembley show (around 4 pm). The other day we are going all together and a bit earlier. Then we still have 1 and a half day left to do whatever. Think we will be having a whole lot of fun!

Black Rose Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 at the moment my plan is to leave my house around 11:30, drive to basingstoke, hopefully get lucky and get a car parking space in my favourite car-parks, walk around to the coach stop for 12:30, catch the bus and get up-to wembley for 2:30ish Assuming that the coach timings don't change.
