Rev_Bem Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 So, I've never been to milton keynes before and seeing as today was quite a nice day I decided to drive to the centre mk and scope it out so I wouldn't be in the lurch on the day when i'm in a rush to get there. Its surprsingly easy to get there once you arrive in milton keynes, its clearly sign posted and theres even a big sign directing you to any avaiable parking spaces. I was pleasantly surprised at the centre itself, its huge! which is good to know as it means i can get virtual tickets then spend ages looking around. I saw the bit where the event is to be held though and it doesn't look to big, could get a little crowded me thinks. still though, it looks good, its easy to park and it only takes me under an hour to get there VERY easily. Now i just have to wait for the guests days to be announced, roll on the end of september! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicky Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 (edited) it doesn't look to big, could get a little crowded me thinks. still though, it looks good, its easy to park That'll all change drastically on the days of the event. It gets really crowded (more than just a little) and can be difficult to walk around. Parking?! You'll be troubled to find a spot in the MK Centre unless you arrive before 9.30am on a weekend.

Rev_Bem Posted August 28, 2005 Author Share Posted August 28, 2005 (edited) I just looked at the 'past events' pics, whoa that does look crowded. Parking shouldn't be to bad, i'll most likly be going on the sunday (or friday dpeneds on the guests) and today (sunday) wasn't to bad.

dodgytrotter Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 for C7 I arrived about 1 1/2 hours late. There were PLENTY of the free parking spaces left. But after about 1pm there were none. Parking was fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nell Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 so it's more of a market stall than a shop then, isn't it davey!!! It does get pretty hot in middleton hall when its jam packed full of people! If I'm not meeting anyone I tend to keep away from it. The centre itself is ok tho, absolutely LOVE Lets Eat.... FLUFF!!! MK itself tho... If I spend too long outside I get a fuzzy head from all the squares and corners! there are no curves in MK centre, apart from the roundabouts....
