Also where is the shuttle bus travelling between, and how often/ how far from the train station?

hybrid_hex · « **Reply #251 on:** April 29, 2008, 07:29:14 PM »

If all the trains run on time, I will be there at the train station just after 11, plenty of time to get a bus to the field and have a mingle!! lol!

These a "shuttle" bus that goto and from there cost £1.
I'd say the pick up pionts in bus station which is across the road and the over side of the super market car park. You'll see the field where the parade ends near the coach park and by then they'llbe loads of people about

The parade start about 2pm so we need to be at the start field before 1pm
It finishes in Sir Halley Stewart Field.

This field is where you can park your car ( I can get some free parking ). Should you need one please tell me as I believe these are limited !?

The train station is not across town ( near where it finishes ) there is a bus which cost £1.

That was in DK's first post, not sure if its too relevant though, i don't know which one is the start field! :S

Ok, change of plan, Ops just called me, I now dont land until saturday morning

so cant get there until 1305 and I will have all of my kit (big bag) so unless I could leave it somewhere (unlikely) then I dont think I can do this! Argh! I hate my job sometimes!!!!

Dark Knight · « **Reply #260 on:** April 29, 2008, 09:14:12 PM »

But made a good piont, how many are coming ?
Must be close to 12 ( I hope ).

There's a slim chance that if I can get in and out of car park I could pick you up, but that would be tricky $:-\$

Dark Knight · « **Reply #261 on:** April 29, 2008, 09:49:20 PM »

If you need more info and don't catch me eye for the caht room ?
Email me I'm on almost 25/7/365.
My mobile is 7904345578 if you need me on the day.

Under 16's need a form to entre parade which I can email you. It's becuse 1 or 2 poeple maybe taking your picture that 1 or 2 thousands

Ground crew need to wear yellow top/vest so they know your in the parade with us. I could only get one from poundland but will try again ?

I've not got the full details on parking will be meeting Thursday but you should make your way to the Springfield Retail Park just off the round-a-about and the parade fields is at the far in of the road. By the sound of it you need to be i the last car park "NORTH CAR PARK ( maybe the field itself ? ) and give your name so you don't need to pay ?

http://www.multimap.com/maps/?&hloc=GB|PE126EU
There is a road called ROMAN BANK which gets you around the back which maybe of some help ?
The field where the floats are and where we all need to be by 1ish is here (old map picture ? )

Dark Knight · « **Reply #265 on:** April 30, 2008, 05:30:54 AM »

There's going to be lots of people hanging around SPRINGFIELDS so we should meet up near the field with the floats. If we are bocking I'd say we could walk in and out of field without much problem $:-\$
You can leave stuff in my car if you want to walk about ( but bockings better )

Floats on display at Springfields Arena and Events Centre prior to the Parade leaving at 2 pm. and then again on the Sunday and Monday. Also craft stalls, trade stands, family entertainment, helicopter rides, fun fair, food village and cooking demonstrations.
If your early there's some good shop that you could have a look around and just look what going on in the main field ?

http://www.spaldingnet.com/spaldingtown/parade/page2.html
Scroll to big map and the NORTH CAR PARK is on the left, the field with the float on is just past there
