Rendezvous point - for the Smart Festival (for any year)
« on: June 17, 2012, 12:06:08 PM »

OK, so here is the map of how to get to the rendezvous point for the Smart Festival,
ForFour tube, no matter what year it is.
             (Based on the usual start time of 11am)

The post code to put into your SatNav to get you to the Tesco/M&S area is KT13 0XF.
 
Note well....The route from Junction 11 can be a nightmare and is not that pleasant.
So...exit the M25 at Junction 10 whether you are going clockwise or anticlockwise as
this is the easiest and the best way to get to MBWorld ....and...to the rendezvous
point. The car park that is close to Tesco's / M&S.

At Junction 10, take the A3 Northbound to the A245. Exit down the slip road to the
roundabout, and take the left exit down the A245. Proceed down the A245 for a while.
At the Brooklands Road roundabout, go straight ahead, but at the next roundabout
take a right turn into Sopwith Drive. A short way in and you will come to another small
roundabout....

Left will take you down Oyster Lane to the entrance to Tesco and M&S.
Ahead will take you to another roundabout, where MB World is straight ahead.

TURN RIGHT...(to where the tip of the big red dart is pointing)..go in about 20-30yards
and it will take you into a secluded car park where there are some swings n stuff
(behind barriers & fence).  You will have reached the rendezvous/meeting point !
Please drive in slowly and carefully, watch out for kids, parents, and even animals.

NB: If you do need to go to Tesco's or M&S for anything, go there first. When you exit
      turn left, down to the roundabout, then go across it and into 'the meeting place'.  OK ?



The meet up time and the start of the convoy is crucial.
MB opens at 8am ! !....and there is usually a queue to get in even then !
The actual 'event' is usually scheduled to start at 11am.
A start time of 10am into MB would encounter a rapidly growing queue of Smarts.
So....the suggestion is.... 09:20 - 09:40am 'start to meet up in car park'.
Start of the ForFour tube/convoy into MB to be at 09:50am.
