This would be nice for those travelling from outside the UK!

I was going to ask the same thing. My husband was asking what time we need to get there - any thoughts/ideas anyone?

You mean you're actually sleeping Jules? I seem to spend all night either dreaming about the show or lying awake with Accelerate going round and round!

He He - glad I'm not the only one - was awake last night at 2 a.m. with Hollow Man going round in my head:D

Roz, I'm driving up (hate public transport) and parking in Imperial College behind the RAH but can't get in there til 6 p.m. so don't suppose I'll have much time for drink :( but at least there's no hassle about queuing this time!

Don't forget the REM photography exhibition at the ICA from noon on Monday. I'm sure there will be a few REM fans hanging out there for a while.

If it matters to anyone other than myself, the Met line will be closed between Northwood and Wembley the entire Easter weeked = diverted routes need to be found (easy enough given time to plan but argggh annoying nevertheless)

Yes, they've just said the weather is changing as a cold front from Siberia hits the country this weekend. Snow is forecast in some parts.:(

Things are never straightforward:rolleyes:

There are lots of tube closures this weekend but you can check out alternative options on www.tfl.gov.uk. They have a map showing which bits of which line are closed, and a routefinder.

Then you get inside the venue and find they have the heating set to "sauna"... (Always happens to me anyway). On the upside, at least there's no queueing for this one!

I'm not sure where you are exactly, but you might need to know that there are no fast trains between Watford/Harrow and Euston this weekend - just slow trains and a replacement bus. :(
