A few weeks back when on a long cycle ride I went and poked around
Gibbins Road where the new side entrance to Stratford station will be -
it's quite a quiet residential area, mostly low rise small houses with a
high rise tower as well, quite a contrast to the hustle and bustle of
the main entrance to Stratford. I wonder how much the new entrance will
change this ambiance.


It's also where the computer fair takes place on Saturdays and Sundays.
Should make that much easier to get to.

OK - I don't know anything about the computer fair - is it any good?
Where exactly is it held?


In the Carpenters and Docklands Centre in Gibbins Road. Starts 10:30
Sat and Sun. They claim, or at least used to, that it's the largest
computer fair in London.


Thanks. I'm not a connoiseur of computer fairs but if I was to want to
attend one in the future then perhaps the biggest in Europe isn't a
bad start. Anyway it's always useful to have such titbits of London
knowledge.


Is it any good? I don't know how to measure goodness.


I like that, an exquisitely noncommital answer!
