Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Not booked mine yet. I was thinking about somewhere along the coast on the rail network. Mainly because i heard the car parking in Brighton costs a bomb.

I need to get my act together.

That's a good point about the parking. Presumably they'll be doing the park and ride thing again as I'll be driving there on the day?

They've done the park and ride each year Red. I'd recommend getting booked early and going for the Falmer Campus car park (on the A27). Can't recommend strongly enough avoiding the Mill Road car park - unless you're planning on getting there ridiculously early.

good point, jb, i remember some parking faffage when i did the half a few years ago. i suppose if we're staying on the sunday night then a hotel with a car park might be the answer. (can you tell i'm not keen on the staying with the cousin solution ;))

what a very lovely husband, dpm :)

The Mercure on the seafront has a carpark. We stayed Sat and Sun night this year and it was OK. Dinner in the restaurant on the Sunday night was a bit old fashioned but better than walking anywhere ;-)

The other issue was they didn't start their 'early' breakfast til 7 but I think they might have learned that particular lesson this time..

it might be worth mentioning when booking as well. i've just peeked at the brighton website but there's not a start time that i can see. what time did it start this year?
