Google maps is telling me it'll take 3.5 hrs to get there so that's easily 5 hrs now it's on a Friday.

Swear Crawley's only two hours away at the most, near Gatwick isn't it.
I'll still be going. Could probably still blag a junior and at £8 for the terrace i'm more than up for it! Knew finishing college early on fridays would come in handy.

Don't think I can make but at least it's an excuse to go to the pub. Not that you should need one on a Friday night.

The money will be welcome....let's just hope it doesn't come at the cost of a humiliation.

That could be right on both counts. Friday afternoon/ night is chaos normally. Best way to go using major routes would be M4, A329M, A322, M3, M25 and then M23. If you left around 3 you'd be there around 5.30-6 any later would be trouble.

For purely selfish reasons, I'm delighted it's on the Friday. I couldn't make the Saturday but now I'll be able to go!
It is a bit of a crap decision for all those who have to work Friday afternoon in Swindon though.

if you want to avoid m25 go straight on from bagshot and hit guildford then horsham crawley is ten minutes from horsham.

Yeah that's wrong, if you're coming from swindon. as mex said on a good run it's no more than 2 hours. And the best way to go is m4,m25,m23.it's so easy, although mex's alternative route is the best option to avoid the 25 if you really feel you need to but personally have never found it worthwhile.

I'll never understand blue line drivers! Sutton's route via Bracknell is quicker and shorter. Wins every time.
