Brighton 2007

I'm surprised that no one has made a thread about this one yet. I should be there all 3 days this time. I still even have my "UKTS" badge from last year (although its a hand written one). Who else would be going to this one?

I might even bring my laptop, would that be allowed?

Im planning on being there all 3 days, health permitting, and will probably have Callum Presley in tow. There's usually space for one or more extra machines / laptops so please bring it along

Same here.....all three days.

I'm likely to be bringing along my desktop PC rather than my laptop, as I have FSX loaded as well as MSTS so we have have a bit of variety.

To answer a thread opened up elsewhare, here's a link to a site with a map of Brighton.

The conference centre is on the front between the two piers...in fact between West Pier and West St, which is the road that runs up to the station.

I hope to attend as many days as possible, but can't guarantee to make them all, the cars being a bit funny so dont want to rely on it too much

But hopefully will be able to bring a bigger and better SWL for the Brighton show

I'll have to hide mine or you'll be eyeing it up for spares again

Still we can have another Dorset Coast Steam Challenge - youve had time to get some practice in now

I should be down for the Saturday (and possibly the Sunday).

Ahem! I believe it was me who threw down the gautlett at Aldershot Laurie!

Don't forget though that we will be diverted via Portsmouth on DC5 by the time Brighton arrives - so some new route learning will be required from the drivers.

Hi Mark

Nice to hear you're coming along for all three days..

The PTH is Newhaven, which is a few miles down the coast 08701 977 192

The Brighton PTH is a few hundred yards from the Exhibition Centre....but is more expensive and there's no car parking.

If you're coming direct to Brighton on the Friday, there'll be a spare seat in one of the cars back to the hotel.
