Booking your flight and getting to Brighton
Posted: 02/07/2003 - 21:03
If you're getting a flight and you're not confident about finding your way to Brighton, then I have the following announcement:
Provisionally we will be running buses from Stansted to Brighton for
SID fans at the following times:
Friday: 6pm, 11pm (we may vary this slightly as people keep us informed
of their plans)
Saturday Morning: 11am, 3pm
and from Brighton to Stansted at 8am and 12 noon.
Price: £10 each way (this is £10 cheaper than the cheapest train fare
which is a Network Awaybreak at £30.80). And you get to travel with
other SID fans.
People will be given a central control phone number to check up
on the status of the buses and to notify of delays, and there will
be a designated pub or café in Stansted where people should wait until
the bus is ready. So that means for some people, BIT Live will start at
Stansted! How cool is that?
People are advised to come on the Friday because it's much more fun! You can get to Brighton and either go to the designated "Back in Time Live" pub, or go to bed. Then you get up to a bright new morning at the seaside and have a nice relaxed morning until 11am when you make your way to meet everyone else at BIT Live.
Needless to say, all of this requires us to be very organised, which requires _you_ to be very organised, and once tickets go on sale,
buy them quickly and book your flights and bus so we all know what's
going on
It also requires us to get that damn website up with loads of accommodation. Although I'll reiterate Wazza's URL:
http://www.brighton.co.uk
Select the accommodation section. It's always a bit crowded in Brighton,
but anywhere you select in the BN1 postcode should be near to the
venue. Brighton is that kind of place
