Not looking good for you Rash.

And the third stage is thinking the car will get the hump! :-)
 
where abouts its a big place?


Ok, here are the directions I posted up last time:

Directions to the meeting point:

Ok, so I will try to explain where we meet as simply as I can (Bluewater is a bit of a maze if you don't know it

)

We usually meet on the 1st floor of one of the multistory carparks round the back of Bluewater. As you drive round the back of Bluewater clockwise, I believe it is the 2nd multistory that will be on your right.

Obviously, if you find yourself going round the back of Bluewater anti-clockwise, the multistory will be the 2nd to last on your left.

Attached, is a map of Bluewater.

Ignore the BLUE line on the map!!
I pinched this map from another forum as it seems to be the only decent map of Bluewater I could find. They were obviously meeting at the end of the blue line.

The RED line is the route that I take:

I believe there are 2 directions in which you can enter Bluewater.
Personally, I head up the M2 and get off at the Bluewater exit and enter using the RED route.

You will see that the RED line takes you over 2 roundabouts.
After the 2nd roundabout, you will see an up-ramp that will take you up to the 1st floor of the multistories.

The up-ramp has 2 lanes - stay in the left lane and follow it into the 1st floor of the multistory.
Once you enter the multistory structure, which I have indicated using a dotted RED line, take the first turning on the left which will take you into one of the parking areas.

Go ahead about 20metres and then turn right.
Go straight ahead and you will see that you can actually cross over into the neighbouring multistory.
Cross over and turn immediately left.
Drive alittle bit and you will see us.

The dotted RED line illustrates the above instructions.

The YELLOW dot is where we meet.

Now, the first left after the up-ramp is actually an exit, so be careful as you enter it!
Yes, I know, not ideal, but it is the route I take

If you want the other route, follow the GREEN line on the map:

Instead of using the up-ramp, follow the road round the back of Bluewater and enter the multistory by going into the 2nd entrance on your right.
Turn immediately left.
Go straight ahead and you will come to a ramp which take you up to the 1st floor (indicated by the dotted GREEN line).
Go up the ramp and drive ahead.
Go slowly because you will need to turn left into the parking areas.

If this isnt clear, ask someone else. lol

And here are my old directions

Here are the instructions for the Bluewater get together on the 20th April

The RED line is the route that most people take:

I believe there are 2 directions in which you can enter Bluewater.
Personally, I head up the M2 and get off at the Bluewater exit and enter using the RED route so that’s the one I’ll describe.

You will see that the RED line takes you over 2 roundabouts.

After the 2nd roundabout, you will see an up-ramp that will take you up to the 1st floor of the multi-storey car park.

The up-ramp has 2 lanes - stay in the left lane and follow it into the 1st floor of the multi-storey.

Once you enter the multi-storey structure, which I have indicated using a RED line, take the first turning on the left which will take you into one of the parking areas.

Go ahead about 20 metres and then turn right.

Go straight ahead and you will see that you can actually cross over into the neighbouring multi-storey.

Cross over and turn immediately left.

Drive a little bit and you will see us, I’ve tried to mark the meeting spot with a RED cross in a circle!

The RED line illustrates the above instructions.

BE AWARE that the first left after the up-ramp is apparently an exit, so be careful as you enter it! Yes, I know, not ideal, but it is the route I take.

If you see the pedestrian Mall entrance (Blue Thames Walk with Costa Coffee as you walk in) ON YOUR RIGHT as you drive by, YOU’VE GONE SLIGHTLY TOO FAR!! If it’s on your left, you’re not following these directions!!

If this isn’t clear, ask or follow someone else (preferably in a Mercedes!)
