Paddington has a manned carpark that's not too badly priced and outside C zone, bit of a trek to Chelsea from there though.

Allow me to repeat myself...Originally posted by DiscoStu View PostIf you're going at the weekend you don't have to pay the congestion charge anyway.

Drive in, park in an NCP. Give them an extra tenner to wash your car. Sorted.
I used to do that when I lived in zone three.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment

Actually get a shed of a 4x4 and you can drive happily anywhere in London. Never enjoyed the South Circular more the in my 1982 Land Rover. The lack of speed isn't an issue and everyone - including white van types - get out the way.Comment

Going down on the Friday Morning so C charge will apply unfortunately.Originally posted by DiscoStu View PostIf you're going at the weekend you don't have to pay the congestion charge anyway.
Where's your hotel?
Hotel is the Tower Hill area, right on the edge of the Zone, but just on the wrong side.
Best I've found so far is here whch is a ten minute walk from the Hotel."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

Have you ever seen the exotic metal parked in the streets around SW3? WTF do you drive that needs secure parking for?! Do you own a special edition Veyron or something?!Originally posted by DaveB View PostSo, can anyone recommend any halfway decent, secure overnight parking in or around central london...?

Edit: Sorry, I've just spotted you're staying in Tower Hill. Just whack it in the nearest NCP and be done with it. Many have cheap weekend parking rates.
Actually, why are you staying in East London for the Chelsea Flower Show...?Last edited by swamp; 11 March 2010, 17:19.Cats are evil.Comment

You sure about that? It's on the opposite side of the river for a start.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
