MPerson Posted February 25, 2011 Share #45 Posted February 25, 2011 Good grief have just found out I can get a new fangled Southern electric train direct from Appledore to Brighton. I'll leave the Penny Farthing in the shed then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
masjah Posted March 6, 2011 Share #46 Posted March 6, 2011 In another thread here, I mentioned the possibility of people who are coming to Brighton bringing a few prints to show other participants. What do people think? I think it might be nice to see some images better than jpegs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted March 6, 2011 Share #47 Posted March 6, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) It's an excellent idea. I will bring some along, both colour and black and white, Leica, Nikon/Leica and Hasselblad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill Posted March 6, 2011 Share #48 Posted March 6, 2011 +1 What a great idea. For practical purposes I'll restrict myself to prints that will fit in a Hadley, but I think it's well worthwhile. Regards, Bill Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted March 10, 2011 Share #49 Posted March 10, 2011 The "One Challenge" always coincides with our wedding anniversary, but at least it's held somewhere interesting. Don't knock Blackpool btw... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted March 10, 2011 Share #50 Posted March 10, 2011 Less than sixty quid? You know how to treat a girl right on her anniversary Try B&Bs outside of Brighton, along the coast. Maybe Hove, or Shoreham or east towards Newhaven. The further from Brighton you go, the cheaper they will be. I stayed in Hastings a few weeks ago, in a Premier Inn. Grim, but cheap at around £65, IIRC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share #51 Posted March 10, 2011 Anyone having trouble finding accomodation for 16th Pete, I had the same problem. In the end I booked a hotel along the coast in Worthing - about 20 mins from Brighton by Train. Most of the hotels I found in Brighton using Expedia or Laterooms seemed to be £120+ - and car parking seemed to be an extra £25 or so on top of that. Blackpool would have been a far cheaper choice <grin>. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it might be nice to see some images better than jpegs. +1 At a previous London meeting I suggested the same but only a couple of us turned up with prints so it was a bit pointless. Let's all make an effort, should be fun passing the prints around over a beer or two! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackpool would have been a far cheaper choice <grin>. The other place nearby that you may find a B&B or a hotel, a bit nicer than Worthing (sorry Worthing), is Lewes. There are also Hassocks/Hurstpierpoint and Falmer. All of them are about 5 or 10 minutes away from Brighton by train. Quite a few hotels and B&B's in Rottingdean - bus ride to central Brighton about 10 to 15 minutes. Wilson Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill Posted March 10, 2011 Share #54 Posted March 10, 2011 If anyone fancies pushing the boat out a little I can highly recommend Arundel House just along the way in Arundel. If anyone fancies being treated like a human being I can thoroughly condemn the Hilton on the seafront. I spent a month there one week on business.
