RE: Minos 02



Oops sorry Penny missed the directions for train.....
 

By Rail

There are frequent services from London Waterloo to Egham (35 minutes); Woking to Egham (35 minutes, change at Weybridge) and Reading to Egham (40 minutes). Services at weekends, especially those on Sunday, are less frequent than on weekdays.

By Foot from Egham

The College is just over a mile from Egham Station, about 20 minutes' walk. Turn right out of the station along Station road and walk about 100 yards to the T-Junction and the traffic lights. Turn left at the junction and follow the road up to the large roundabout; go left up Egham Hill. The main College entrance is on the left about a mile from the roundabout, after the second footbridge.

By Bus from Egham

London Country buses 441 and 443 (Staines to Slough) stop near the station and at the College main entrance. There is also a College bus service, but tickets for this must be obtained in advance: they are available from the College shop, and also from the Budgens store in Egham. The College bus, like the taxis, leaves from the main car park adjacent to the station.

By Taxi from Egham

There is a taxi rank immediately behind Egham station in the main station car park; the A2B/Gemini Cars taxi offices can be found at 50, Station Road on the opposite side to the station, and about 200 yards from the station in the direction of Egham town centre. A2B taxis can also be booked by telephone: call 01784 432222; other nearby taxi companies include Allpoint Cars on 01784 432468 and Arrow Cars on 01784 436533.

From Heathrow

Taxis are available from Heathrow airport, 8 miles away, but can be expensive. It is far better to book a taxi in advance (eg from A2B - see above), in which case a fixed fare (currently £16-00) will be charged. Alternatively take bus number 441 from Heathrow Central to the College, or go by tube to Richmond and then take a train to Egham.

 
Things are starting around 10.30/11.00am  (coffee / registration) on saturday. We have now taken the firewall down so the website should be back to normal.
 
If anyone has any problems with directions then give me a call on 07833 367593.
 
Hope to see you all tomorrow
