Maybe not event that - at their age they'll have to play everything a lot slower.

it may be worth checking the Message Board on the HV web site. There's all sorts of information there, somebody may have started a thread about car parking (I was trying to check but I keep getting database connection errors at the moment).
 
I could rent you my drive way for a small fee. Wink

Getting same error.

I'll have to go via Romford, which means arriving back there late Sunday night. Unhappy

Any car parking around there?
 
What Romford? Yes, there are a few public car parks. I don't know what times they shut though.

No.....at Victoria Park....for me.

Blacksword and I are meeting at this pub between 11:15 and 11:30 Sunday morning - you're welcome to join us. We will be the balding guys discussing the relative merits of Gabriel and post-Gabriel Genesis in the middle of a pack of West Ham fans.

 

Seriously we are balding and I will be wearing a Tinyfish T shirt.  If you come in the bar humming the intro to 20th Century Schizoid Man we should be able to find you.


..and I'll be the short baldy one wearing a Porcupine Tree tee-shirt..

Wish i was.

If I do go alone (nobody else wants to come) how would I find you?
 
Blacksword and I are meeting at a local public house beforehand, so we can fill up with beer and not have to pay £1,000,000 a pint later on.
 
Actually it's "only" £4 for a pint of Carlsberg. That's actually not much more than London pubs charge anyway.
