Me, I'll be going to Falmer.

I really don't like the commercialisation of football (or anything else) and will not be using the words Amex Stadium or Amex.

I think it will eventually become the Amex but will take time to get used to.

The name Falmer has too many negative associations for me, so I've erased it from my reality, and started afresh. From my point of view, it's the AMEX stadium, located in Brighton( not Falmer), and so I'll be heading to the AMEX

Shared exhibition space at Earls Court last week with with the Albion Team, being probably the only person actually excited to see Gully walking around, (many many apologies Ian), got in severe trouble when calling it Falmer!

So, for Ian's sterling work amidst complete indifference, (though my project Party for the Podium - Party For The Podium, was receiving equal indifference from some snooty people), and the daily support given it will always be The Amex!

Good point. That's probably what I do in reality.

I still don't know if I'm going to the A-Mex or the Am-Ex so to throw Falmer into it is just confusing me further!

Am-Ex. A-Mex is simply wrong. Nobody has an "A" merican Express card do they, they have an "AM" erican Express card.

all 3 actually. I'll be going to "Falmer", "The AMEX", and "football". It will mean the same thing, and I won't be anal enough to get worried about it.
