sl114 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 What is the meeting time at the London Eye? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pingu2 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Right, 1st meet, 6.45 at the London Eye. Then get to canary wharf for about 8-8.30. We will be meeting up on the collonade, either north or south depending on parking! Then leave CW at about 9am. Route will be posted for the run down to Brighton so everyone can put it in their sat navs. As there will be a few of us and cause of the route it may be we get split up a bit so I will work out one or 2 stopping/grouping points along the way. The most important one is so we can group up before hitting the Shorham Tunnel for Eargasm time!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
