Gilliver's Travels
Peripatetic
Intrigued to see how our identity-theft home was being marketed by the rugger buggers, I nipped over to the RFU site .Imagine my surprise on discovering that this "BCS" was STILL not quite finished!
BRIGHTON COMMUNITY STADIUM
Capacity - 30,750
This stunning addition to the Sussex landscape is situated in Falmer – a short hop on the train from Brighton and Hove, which has been in need of a large venue of this quality for many years. Constructed at a cost of £93m, the ground has won plaudits for its semi-circular stand roofs and tubular supporting steelwork from both fans of sport and architecture. And there are plans to make it even better, too: capacity will be steadily increased to over 27,000 by the middle of this year, and could be increased to above 30,000 by the time the Rugby World Cup rolls around.
