The best advice I can give for this coming Sunday, if you were considering coming to Brighton is .....don't!

The seafront will be closed nearly all day, parts of the A23 leading into town (from Preston Park onwards) closed from 8 am, there will be 10,000 runners, plus their support teams, the general Sunday trippers and other spectators.

Worthing or Eastbourne will be the best places to try if you want a drive to the coast, or do it a different day!

Noooooooo, don't come to Worthing. We're lovely & largely tourist free currently! frown

Having said, I should be in Somerset that day for the Cheddar Gorge meet, so it's fine, pop down all you want! hehe

hehe Don't go there often, can't afford it - car parking charges make running a TVR look cheap! yikes
