apart from taking a thames 'cruise' during the summer, i've never thought about travelling that way.

So how was it last night? What time did they start/finish? Had you gone in the centre around the 3am they were doing a practice run for Queen's Jubilee Parade

No G'n'R tickets for tonight then.......

Would have been nice the Friday before the long weekend,

I foresee chaos after the GnR gig, so I've forked out for the special River Bus they've put on which is leaving 15 minutes after the end of the gig (whenever it ends), and takes about 20 mins back to Central London.

https://booking.thamesclippers.com/o2ex ... per/page/1

£7 or so plus booking fee.

Cheaper than a taxi and much much quicker than a bus.

That's quite good for London people it makes quite a few stops - just make sure you get out quickly.

From The O2 - The O2 Express Westbound (£7.00)
Stops at Canary Wharf, London Bridge and London Eye (Waterloo) Piers.
There are 51 seats remaining for this service.

From The O2 - Westbound Request Stop Service (£6.00)
Stops on request at Greenwich Pier, Masthouse Terrace Pier, Greenland Pier, Canary Wharf Pier, Tower Millennium Pier, London Bridge Pier, Bankside Pier, Blackfriars Pier, Embankment Pier and London Eye (Waterloo) Pier.

There are 191 seats remaining for this service.

The Westbound service will depart 15 minutes after the event ends.

I just wanted to say a massive thank you for putting the boat information here, we pre booked a ticket, able to stay until the end and make the boat on time, got to festival pier and made the night bus home.

It was still a long journey back home don't get me wrong but was an easy journey, and seeing the river at night with everything all lit up was a very pleasant way to get back, pre booked clipper boat definitely recommended for those going tonight!

No problem! It was surprisingly painless to get back - and there was a bar on the boat! Was very nice to go under Tower Bridge all lit up like that!

I think that the boat will be running tonight like it was last night... no need to pre-book I guess, entrance was open yesterday and no one was talking about tickets just telling people to board :)

There's rumours floating around the world wide web that Ghost the musical will be closing this September to make place for Viva Forever. But to be honest, with the show opening internationally (Broadway recently and the Netherlands and Australia soon), the amount of awards and positive buzz it's received and the good ticket sales I don't think it's true (mind, this might just be me being in denial) and I hope someone did their research incorrectly and the show may be transferring to another (perhaps bigger) theatre in the West End. *crosses fingers*
