Thames Tunnel open this weekend for the last time

Apologies if this is a repost but..

The Thames Tunnel is going to be open to the public for 2 days only (12-13th March) before it succumbs to the East London line.
This marvel of Victorian engineering was built by Brunel and is not usually open to the public.
Tickets are £5 and places are filling up, so book your tickets here

ah fuck sticks - no tickets left

what a terrible booking engine - you have to click on each time slot, select # tickets, and then it tells you there are none left..??

yeah I know - sun afternoon seems to have some spaces

woop, got tickets for Sat 14.15 slot.

No under 16s. Meh - the kids would love this.

thanks for the heads-up Clefty!

Corny and I went to this on the last Open House... it (the site, not our day out) descended into prostitution, alcohol and crime.

ha Im still trying to pay! bloody crap booking system

Yes it is shite, and Hael it's 12-13th thats Friday and Sat not Sunday!
MOC has recently been trying to convince me to help him buy an ex nuclear bunker in the Peak District its on ebay for £20k

linky! is it an old RoC one? ill go thirds!

It was a while ago, can't find it now - however there is one in Lincolnshire starting at 6k!

ha! yeah I love the old RoC bunkers I used to play in one when I was a kid, you can get into most of them using a 12mm spanner

MoC wanted to use it as a datacentre and general secret place, I've told him we can get one, when we actually have a big enough place to live in.
This is up there with his 'buy an Aston Martin' instead of a new flat idea.

Sigh....there doesn't seem to be a street address anywhere on the confirmation email or site for where the entrance to this tunnel is.

Anyone know where it is?

theres a bunch of radio nuts converted one into a long distance listening post, the problem is they are prone to flooding - they have to be pumped every so often (theres a bilge pump on the wall)

@Hael HA!

Thanks for the heads up clefty, used to live round the corner from it and always fancied a look at the tunnel. Got tickets for the 15.15 show on Sat.

The tunnel starts at Rotherhite tube station on Salter Road so I'm guessing that will be where the tour groups meet. Not entirely clear from the website tho.

wha! how the fuck, i still get error with your booking when im trying to confirm

It didn't like firefox, had to use IE, basically it's just a crap website.

are you using Internet Exploder? I think it only works with that

edit: beat me to it.
