A and B elevenses next week: Aug 21 at Guildford

Next week is a new venue and format. Elevenses in Guildford with everyone making their on way there by train ( or ride if energetic). No meeting at N Cheam!! So a few details which I hope will help.

Venue. The theatre is just off Millbrook, thats the A281 to Shalford/Cranleigh that runs past the bottom of the High St and Debenhams. As you approach the building there is a pedestrian gate on the right to a walkway above the river into the back garden behind the cafe.


 Trains:  the first thing to say is that railcards are typically only valid after 9.30 and offpeak tickets are cheaper. Both rides are circular allowing a return ticket to be used from Guildford to get home.
Useful trains are:

From Wimbledon at 9.49, Surbiton 9.57 via Cobham arrives Guildford 10.32.  The train 30 min earlier is only off-peak from Hinchley Wood.  A 9.30 departure from Surbiton is possible changing at Woking.

On the Epsom line the 9.31 from Motspur Park, 9.33 Worcester Park and stations to Epsom 9.47 arrives Guildford 1020. 
From Sutton there is a 9.29 ( not offpeak) or Cheam 9.31 arriving Epsom 9.37 to connect into the train above.

I plan to be at Guildford station to meet the 1020 arrival and wait until the 1032 arrival from Surbiton to point the way to the pedestrian underpass for those who dont want to cycle the one way gyratory. Please dont arrive after this so we can make a prompt departure. Thanks. Brian
