Just to let everyone know the despatch situation, I am hoping for a batch of card-backed A3 envelopes plus poly bags to arrive tomorrow. I have a supply of card to put in the front of the envelopes. They will therefore be doubly protected by card and against moisture. That's as much as I can do...
Thanks for the interest. I am going to despatch the items strictly in the order in which cheques are received, so get yours in the post quickly!
Remember please that the print is a bulky item, A3 in size. I will protect it as much as I possibly can when posting, wrapped in plastic and with card...
The Albion Collectors' and Historians' Society has a couple of nice items for sale to commemorate the recent tenth anniversary of the last game at the Goldstone Ground.
The first is a postal "First Day Cover", a DL-sized envelope (110 x 220 mm) which has a colour "aerial" painting of the...
Thank you everyone, but it's not quite fair as I have only organised two of the four wards.
Ed and Roz have done the other two, and I am most grateful to them for letting me off having to do that!
Besides, it was nothing compared to 26 wards (or whatever) back in 1999 and the referendum. Now...
Down West St from the Clock Tower, along the prom, Madeira Drive (I think, rather than Marine Parade), up the road past the Concorde II to the top, then Arundel Rd and into East Brighton Park.
It is 2.8 miles. I ran 4 miles in 29:13 along Worthing seafront in January so I should do this...
Just a reminder about the walk tomorrow being undertaken by the Falmer For All team, from the Clock Tower to Sheepcote Valley (by Whitehawk FC). The story is on the Albion website - "Proving the Lie of the Land".
This is to see whether Lewes District Council's submission, about "the 25-minute...
Well the Victory is on the corner of Duke St and Middle St, not Market St, so I assume it must be Middle St.
But on the more general point, the new library is a general library. All the local history stuff is in what is now the Local History Centre, which is the former reference library room in...
Thank you, you are all very kind.
The Encyclopaedia of Brighton is now out of print and there are no plans to reprint it. As those who have it will know it has extremely poor production values. When I compiled it I couldn't find anyone interested in publishing it, except of course a "vanity...
There are only a few hundred packs of the Ruth Kelly postcards left, so if you need some more please ask at the Bristol City game. You'll be able to get them from the South Stand programme booth or from the Supporters' Club table in the North Stand - while stocks last.
You can still return the...
Most are bagged.
As Lord Bracknell said, we spent Wednesday evening putting them in bags. But there are still loose ones in case the bagged ones run out. That's what happened at the last game, Tom Hark Preston Park - the bagged ones went early and we resorted to handing out the unbagged ones...
The Sussex Coast Football Programme & Memorabilia Fair will be held in the Gilligan Room at the Sussex County Cricket Ground, Hove, on Sunday, 18th February, from 11am to 2pm, admission 50p.
The Albion Collectors' and Historians' Society is taking a table will be offering a huge number of...
Just a reminder to Albion fans that they can collect Ruth Kelly postcards on Saturday from the programme booths and from Gully's Girls - while stocks last! They will be bagged - the cards, that is, not the girls - and so protected against the weather, but you might want to bring a carrier bag if...
Dr Des Turner, MP for Brighton Kemptown, has tabled an Early Day Motion, EDM 882, in the House of Commons in support of the stadium at Falmer.
We need to do all we can to get the number of signatories to this motion as high as possible.
A large number of signatures, especially from the Labour...
Postcard campaign
The Falmer For All team is launching a series of postcards at the Rotherham United game on Saturday, 3rd February, as the first of a series of initiatives to make the Secretary of State aware of the huge support for the stadium proposals at Falmer.
The cards have been...
Lord Bracknell is correct - the Supporters' Club has never asked for any priority over ticket allocations.
If supporters want to know what we are about, here's the intro on our membership form at the end of this message.
Just to correct one or two things I've read in this thread about the...
