Got to agree with Red Line. Been there, got the t-shirt. It doesn't matter who's running it and with what personnel, the roads plain cannot cope with the exodus at the end of the show. I can remember punch ups between RAF guys and stroppy drivers who couldn't understand that it wasn't our fault! Also remember handing out the sweets, unsold programmes and oyher gizzets. Big smiles all round.

As a civvie attending over the past years, in my opinion things have got better since the Fife police introduced the one way system around the roads about 10 years or so ago. If you're local though you'll still know what back raods to use to by pass the traffic.

Park and Ride sounds like a good idea and the train service has always been an excellent way of getting there and away.
