hi John

London ExCel - is that the dome ?


No it's north of the river next to london city airport. You can park under the show, just pick the right entrance as some have height restrictions. Nice venue in the summer as you can do whatever show is on, then wander outside with a pint and watch the boats in the docks.

What Stu said - although all the parking under the centre has a 1.9m height limit so no good for proper Landrovers. There is a large 'overheight' car park right outside the East entrance though plus a big parking area for vans.

Parking was free with show tickets as well Thumbs Up so that off-set a small amount of what I spent Rolling with laughter John

We drove to our new house and measured the garage up....
Now I have a scale model with scale workbenches and tool cabinets as well as a 'to scale' trailer mocked up on the dining table, to make sure everything fits and I have plenty room !!!
How sad is that !

Even the welder is mocked up !
