stuff you DON'T like about brighton & hove

[turienzo's lovechild]

It takes about 35 minutes to walk from Brighton Station to Withdean so you must walk ver very slowly

these walks are drunken walks

with tesco express on dyke road pit stop



oh, and you could never do brighton station-withdean in 35 mins...45 mins maybe

 

[dougdeep]

bet they're cheaper though, MUCH cheaper


it costs £10-£12 to get to the withdean area from town

It's free on the bus on matchdays.

[Scotty Mac]

Yes you can as I have done it on numerous occasions. It takes me the same time to get to Olive road from Brighton station as it does to get to Withdean or do I just walk quickly?

Thats not bad by bus

Buses are too expensive when you live close to town IMHO - they should drop the flat rate, and would be good if they could be subisidised from the moneymade in parking fines.

But most of all, the one thing that really bugs me is LITTER. B and Hove is just disgustingly filthy.

its probably quicker to walk - and being at the peak of physical fitness, it suits me fine

 

[trueblue]

Oh - and Londoners.

Olive Road off of Portland Road and not BoundaryRoad then yes I am talking about that and in answer to Tommy Boys question I would walk straight along London Road. I do tend to walk quickly especially when I am in a mood and yes sometimes it can take me an extra 10 minutes.

Hove, ruins it, should just be Brighton

Remind me not to stand in your way when you're in a mood then, I'll be trampled by bionic legs
