It’s fine to just read NSC. There is no requirement to post and he doesn’t need his contributions validated by anyone else.
you're still upset about brexit, aren't you. i can tell

The train shitshow at Brighton c 10.45pm was awful. Zero information about trains going west to Worthing, one train to Hove at 23.09, no platform details until 5 mis before departure when next train for Worthing time popped up as 12.19 am. At 23.50 I was still stood on Hove platform.. No announcements, apologies or information.
Errrrm, frustrating l'm sure, but why on earth not walk down Queen's Road and jump on a bus? no end of routes heading west along the Western Road, even at that time of night on a Saturday.

Going to continue with my ‘park and walk’ strategy…….good exercise, and very little variation in the time it takes to travel - was home by 6pm yesterday. Even the walk (in the ‘35 min’ spot yesterday but I use another that’s about an hour each way sometimes) wasn’t too bad in the breeze.
Where are you trying to get back to ?
Even buses are suffering. After one of the Women's Euros games I went to, I got back to Brighton station OK but then had a half hour wait for a train to Shoreham. I knew there was a Stagecoach 700 due from Churchill Sq in 10 mins so I legged it down Queens Road to find out it was cancelled and the next one was due in 20 minutes. So I started walking ... and checking bus times ... then the next bus also got cancelled. I eventually walked to bus stop at King Alfred and waiting another 15 minutes. Speaking to the people already at the bus stop they hadn't seen a 700 in almost an hour!
I stand corrected!
I can well understand it in the case of the 700, which is operated out of Worthing garage. as l know Stagecoach have been chronically short of drivers since the pandemic.
Wouldn't you be better off sauntering up to Moulsecoomb and getting on a 49 to take you home?
But it's ok for him to criticise someone else's post!! Funny how supporters of Brexit are now all getting tetchy whenever it's mentioned.
If I was going home, yes. But going into town for a quick drink and then a lift home from a mate who parks at Brighton station? Not so much.
I have totally given up on the Coastway West part of the train journey - it's horrendous.
Trying to think of a 'park and cycle' strategy.
Does anyone know of the sweet spot to park that's:-
Coming from the West.
Easy access to and from A27
Outside of the restriction zone.
Legitimate place/road (not 'well despite the sign I've never been clamped)
Close to the cycle path, that takes you to The Bridge car park
I basically want to park at Mithras House!
If you have mountain/gravel bike you could park at the very end of Ditchling Road (before it crosses A27) and ride down through Stanmer Park.
He sounded bored rather than tetchy….you’re just looking for an argument with people who came on to this thread to find out what happened on the trains yesterday.
Lucky you ! The P&R buses were a shambles yesterday. Took 20 minutes for a single one to turn up at Mill Road yesterday when normally theres 3 or 4 queued at 1pm. Coming back was worse - standing in the heat for an hour. And even when you did manage to get on all the windows were open so the A/C couldn't do it's job. Thinking about Seagulls Travel next season.
Yes, I still keep an eye out for them. A journey not unlike that of the Albion with regards to losing a stadium and being homeless for a long time.Grovesnor Vale now in Ruislip.
