Still well worth it if you are going to see Marty Wild and the wildcats.. who else is on the bill? Joe Brown, Eden Kane, John Leyton?
Marty is still good value for money, some great songs.
re: The Hindhead tunnel...
Well certainly no Alvin Stardust
re: The Hindhead tunnel...
John Leyton and Eden Kane are yes Kitey. He doesn't tour with Joe Brown now sadly. Stopped when Joe's son started touring with his Dad, whether that is by accident I don't know

Sounds a bit like my ex wife

The one out of Colditz ?
re: The Hindhead tunnel...
The old road worked? for many years but was a bottleneck. What I don't understand is why the old road was not kept as a backup in case the tunnel needed closing. Instead the old road was ripped up and returned to nature. Now if the tunnel closes traffic is sent off on a wild detour. Absolute madness, so which bright spark decided to do away with the old road?
re: The Hindhead tunnel...
Don't remind me LDB
Yes its a pain. Something to do with technical problems but why they can't just shut half as they have done previously ?:(
Twice now after evening games we have been obliged to get home via a detour by way of Bordon/Farnham then the Hogs Back.
Have had kind offers form friends living in Pompey to stay over if we want but sometimes for other reasons need to get home and also don't like to impose to often.
For the Stevenage game we came on the Train (option we use sometimes ) but weekdays the last back to Woking is 22.28 as the last of all stops at Guildford .
Might drive to Guildford as we do like to stop after the game for a drink.
Also there some engineering works planned. during late October/November so what other disruptions are in store.?
