Yay!! Tuesday is my day off! ;D So if anyone else is going, I might go as well. It's unlikely I'll get an autograph, as I already have the other book signed, but it'd be great to meet up with some Boardies again and watch the events as they unfold. My aunt lives near Chelmsford, so I can pay her a long overdue visit. Also, her other half is considering getting a Jaguar XK8 and, naturally, I've been trying to talk him into it, so I now have a great excuse to go over there and encourage him some more...!! ;D |

Carrie, contain yourself! It's Chelmsford in Essex, so if you're really in London, assume it's a doddle from Liverpool Street or Fenchurch Street, I expect (excuse ignorance, from south of the river!).
Someone from here, Mayfayre I think, called to check that it's definitely Chelmsford, but scroll up and you'll see.

It's about 500m from the station. Trains go from Liverpool St about every 10 mins. Alternative ones also stop at Stratford. It's about 35 mins from Liverpool St & 25 from Stratford.

30 miles from Central London. Less from Dartford. Drive anti-clockwise round M25, turn right onto A12, drive about 10 miles, follow signposts.
