listed in the phone book!!!!!!!, its shown on all the A - Z's down here quite clearly as Air Traffic Control Centre.
Bottom of M3 stay in outside lane to head eastbound M27 (yes I know that sounds odd) Leave at junc 8 and pass back under motorway and back up the hill on dual carrigeway. At roundabout take a left and drop down hill, watch your speed as it passes from a 40 into a 30. As you pass over the river take a left at the traffic lights and stick to 30. Another favorite spot for the old bill to catch us in our band 5 cars. Follow this for about a mile back over motorway and you will see an entrance on the left hand side.
Pull into car park before barrier as I guess you will need a pass from the hitlers on the gate.
Easy as that.

No worries, found it eventually. I was a bit surprised the only sign for the place was at the top of the road. Still, I made it in the end bar one wrong turn by the Q8 garage across from the Chinese. 
Nice place you lot work in though, and the ones I sat with were a nice bunch as well. It was weird meeting the voices at the other end of the phone after so long.
Didn't see a single Ferrari though, you dissapoint me .......

Any truth in the rumour that it was supposed to have had its own exit from the Motorway at the front of the building, but that there would have been too much disturbance to local flora and fauna, which is why one has to sneak in from behind?

Sorry Jerri, I don't drink diesel oil. 
I'm pacing myself this St Paddy's Day, waiting till all the girls in town are drunk and vulnerable before unleashing the kilt.... Okay, that doesn't mean unbuckling the kilt. Don't picture it, you'll go blind.
What? Too late?

There are explicit directions available on the NATS intranet, including colour piccies :-) Glad you enjoyed the visit. No truth in the rumour that there was gonna be a motorway junction contructed! We like going in the back way ;-)
