    Don't know what you mean here. I'd only go to the quays or the buttercrane personally, if you get around the 2 of them with the crowds that'll be there you'll have done well. I'd also park at one of the centres and leave the car there, it's only across the road and parking spaces will be at a minimum.

    Dont forget to get there early! Us southerns seem to love "paying Her Majesty's taxes"


    With Vat at 15% (compared to 21.5%) and sterling Plummeting towards Paraity with the euro, can you really blame us?
