, Is Earls Court, Brompton Road gate open all night (Sunday evening), can I park up inside if I go straight from Newquay?

2

Not sure, but there is (or was) a lorry park close by. Normally you would have a booking in time at Earl’s Court.

3

parked a film unit in there two weeks a go and we had to stop any vehicle movement by 2300hrs
nearest car park is seagrave rd often see redburns parked in there

Do drivers from Newquay get preforential (spolling) treatment ?

5

Thanks guys, as usual only got instruction to load at 13:00 tomorrow and be there ‘Monday AM’.
Hopefully will get a little more specific time from the client when I load, Harry.
If it’s 23:00 shutdown Fred, I’ll take a break on the way and arrive just before the traffic cranks up.

I certainly hope so, the English usually feel sorry for us, all of a sudden surrounded by big buildings, being from a depressed area with only a bag of raw veg and a pasty for the week with a brockley sack to sleep under and all that… :smiley: :smiley:

No idea about Earls Court access, but just watch yourself with the London Lorry Ban thing if you are outside regular hours.

Thanks Wild Goose, knew nothing about it would have driven straight into that after the Hammersmith flyover.
Maybe pasties and raw veg is not so far off the mark :blush:

park at Heston svs and run in in the morning
this will allow you to avoid the ban which comes off at 0700
your boss should have allowed for this in his pricing of the job :laughing:

dont try to be clever these things are controlled by cameras

Thanks Hitch, good plan

You’ll need to go to traffic marshalling at Seagrave Road to book in.

The guys on traffic are pretty good - they don’t like to have you hanging around for too long.

It just depends on where about on site you want to go, and what space they have available for you

Thanks Kindle, there are, apparently, the crew already there and I’ve to contact them 30 mins out.
I’m parked up in Hampshire as there’s no set time, still only Mon AM, and will commute in the morning.

Stephen Fry would be your man for this Wheelnut, I think I got the gist of it though :confused:
