We went, left Berkshire around 09:15 straight through London arrived around 10:15.

But one big problem hit traffic on the East India Dock Road and with
the Excel Centre in sight and only 5 mins away it took us another Hour to actually arrive & park....and for me this is where the show in London lets itself down.

But it was quiet......no hustle & bustle....

We stayed at Abbey Wood and went to the show by train with no problems.

Enjoyed looking round but we didnt find any toilets that weren't downstairs, which seemed weird and after a long day on your feet was hard work.  Not sure where the disabled or pushchair friendly ones were though which would be hard if you were there with no help up and down.

The prices of the burgers were pretty steep around £8, I don't mind paying £5 for one but too dear for  me for an afternoon snack.

Didnt buy anything but enjoyed it.

The disabled and people with pushchairs were using the lifts when I was there... much easier than the stairs...infact I was using the lift and I am neither disabled nor did I have a pushchair!

We opted to go to Ferry Meadows instead of the show. I reckon we probably did the right thing.
