Happy Jack Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 The sun is up, the sky is blue, there's not a cloud to spoil the view, and there are 12 Blues artists performing in Walpole Park between 2:00pm and 10pm ... and all for the princely sum of £1. That includes Sam Kelly, Chris Jagger, Gary Fletcher, and The Guv'nors.

Sibob Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I might pop along, it's only 20mins down the road for me!! Where in ealing is it? We can talk about barefaced cabs haha Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 If you're coming from Ealing Broadway tube, you need to be on the other side of the Broadway Centre. There's a small green (Ealing Green) at the top of St. Mary's Road just as it becomes Bond Street, close to the old BBC Studios, and one of the main entrances to Walpole Park is right there. There are also entrances on Mattock Lane and Culmington Road, etc. Best post code is something like W5 5EQ If anyone is there on their own and looking to hook up, I'm on 07786 251295.
