It would be great to be there but I have seen them twice quite close together and you can't beat a Midlands atmosphere!
Just drive to the end of one of the tube lines or get a train! It won't be hard! And the M25 is just like a regular motorway!

Don't have very happy memories of the M25 after a crash that blocked the entire road meant getting diverted to Watford and a kind bloke walking his dog went and got his car out so that I could follow him to the nearest Travelodge! I definitely hadn't been going to go to this anyway, just with this visit to the rellies it might have been a last minute possibility.

Edit - I've been busy downloading Manics stuff on to my mp3 player so I'll have plenty to listen to even if I can't make the gig!

Everytime I'm on the M25 I always end up behind a horse box! Move, pesky horses.

You must be really excited what with all that shouting. Or is your caps lock stuck?

So excited, I'm set to leave for London on Wednesday. Lucky I managed to convince my dad it was time to spend some time in England, otherwise there would be no chance of me going. I still can't believe I am!

It's an overground extension of the underground network, that uses driverless trains on a winding and undulating route. Get the front seat where the driver would normally be and it's like riding a rollercoaster, just without the heart stopping thrills.
