#830 Saturday 17 April 1999 meeting / leaving 5pm in the small car-park
opposite the Cucchiaio d'Argento pizzeria in Venegono Superiore.
The restaurant is being sorted and is hopefully near where we will meet and
park. We will try for the usual lit 25,000'ish cost including wine
+ lit 5,000 run fee. If you are late, look for a hash car with
directions / instructions on the windscreen.
FRom Milan:
By car: (45 minutes from the beginning of the A8)
Take the A8 Autostrada for Varese. Exit at Gazzada, about 2 km before
Varese. Bear right out of the exit road and continue round the curve,
straight on through traffic lights and on for a few kilometres until you
come to the sign for Lozza. The road crosses a bridge and immediately there
is a big roundabout. Turn right, taking the first exit off the roundabout,
up the hill following signs to Milan. After about two kilometres you see a
sign for Castiglione Olona, and there is a big white building on your right
with a sign, "Galimberti". Shortly after this you come to a set of traffic
lights with the brick built church on the right. Turn left at the lights,
taking the road up the hill sign-posted Venegono S. (for Venegono
Superiore). (Don't confuse this with Venegono Inferiore which is a few kms
further on). Go uphill until you reach the beginning of the village where
there is a level crossing.
Once over the railway line go through the traffic lights into the
mainstreet (the junction is offset so veer right then left. You see the
"Cucchiaio d'Argento" Pizzeria on your left and there is the car park on the
right.
By train:
Take the Ferrovia Nord from Cadorna. There are trains to Venegono Superiore
at least every hour, sometimes more often. The journey takes about 55
minutes. Don't get off at Venegono Inferiore, which is the station before
Superiore! At the station walk out onto the road where you see the level
crossing, and follow the last sentence of the instructions above. The car
park is only 100 metres from the station.
In case of difficulty, Bwana's mobile number is 0348 410 4188
Book by returning this e-mail by tomorrow (Friday) up to 1pm or to Bwana's
tel. no. in the line above.

to hand it back to the agency soon if not taken. Any further bookings will
be possible but might not be in the same condominium ... maybe not such a
