I don't really mind which date, although 26th would be best *personally*
I just need a definite date so I can book the days off!

[Mr Phil]

It's going to be the 12th.

It's on the 12th.

That's what was decided.

[Thorners (a.k.a. Claire)]

Pirateyness on the 12th! Yay!

[Joinee Meek]

I'll come play. I'm fun like that.

[Siobhán]

I'm looking forward to it so much I dressed a bit like a pirate at the Guillemots gig on Tuesday.
I want to swim this year.

[Timothy Goose]

I believe that Team Awesome will have a prior engagement to the 2008 version of this

However the Biddlington aspect of Team Awesome will probably be severely tempted to come down for the early evening onwards. Fantastically dressed and hammered on free gin and snuff.
The William Dean aspect of Team Awesome probably won't be that drunk... and probably won't be at pirates

You better. I'll throw a strop otherwise.

The 2006 version was one of the great days of my life! It's very tempting....

[G J Katie]

I will be there in my swimsuit. I will go paddling. A wave will hit me and make me look like I'd p'd myself. Fun

[gj joezilla]

12th is good for me.

[Lethal Biddle]

Indeed. Having pointed out quite ardantly that it should always be on the 12th, I realise that Team Awesome will be busy that day. Arse.
So y'all have fun & Tim & I will join you in the evening. Possibly drunk. Possibly prize-winners.

[Joinee Parkin]

I'd be very very tempted indeed to do both.

[Edit because my smut-o-meter just went off the scale:]

I meant to do both events, ie chap olympics then Brighton.

What are folks doing for accomodation?

Shurrup.

Timmy Tim Tim. Bagsy staying wherever you are and we can drink gin and wear fabulous clothes.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

On a serious note - does anyone have any beddage? Or know of a not too far away campsite?

The only campsite in Brighton is at Sheepcote Valley, about five minutes from the Marina.

[Siobhán]

I hope to disappear of to Eastbourne again. This means I will probably miss the Bidlington action.

Which is a shame.

[Joinee Parkin]

There are a few budget hotels and a hostel listed here:
Budget hotels in brighton

Prices are around 20-30 per person per night.

[gj joezilla]

I think i'll be there and back in London on the same day (prob very drunk).

I'm sure if I sweet talk the drunken wench she'll give us a bit of floor to sleep on. As long as we're full of gin, it'll be fine

see if the flat is available

[Joinee Parkin]

*flutters eyelashes in Becky and Tim's direction*

[PJ Hannah B-R]

*flutters eyelashes more than Rachel*

Sweet talk your Dad Tim, tell him I'm coming, he likes me. I think. I have no proof, but he definitely does.

[Gold Joinee Mhairi]

i will come if i can stay at beckys because that will be the most fun.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

You will come because JaHan are coming and we make a party.

[Gold Joinee Mhairi]

that's true. i will come if i can stay at beckys and/or sleep inbetween jamie and hannah and make them annoyed.

i might even bring me old ball and chain and be MhaBri. If we had a threesome with Tor we would be MhaBriTor....hahahahahahaha.

[Joinee Parkin]

hahahahahaaaa like it

ooooh I'm gonna enjoy this one.

By (Captain) Hook or by crook, I'll be there.

With very fluttery eyelashes.

Do you think England is ready for Brian?

[Lethal Biddle]

I will come because I already am staying at Becky's.
Well... not NOW.. I mean it's been arranged.
Might I recommend people ring her, rather than ask on a forum she hardly ever reads.

No, probably not. It will be funny to watch.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

I'll email her as I don't have her number but I think i ahve her email address.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

If you needed any more persuading, then let me tell you THIS.

My facebook nosiness tells me that Hanna Cesek (the fit one) is organising a Brighton beach party for that very same night on a come one come all basis.

Huzzah!

[Captain K]

'tis true.

Although it also means that her (and therefore Becky's) flat is basically full already.

So, in the absence of my "Palais de 30 Joinees" these days (i.e. we can't cram my former flat any more) we'll be needing Tim to blag his dad for his place, or Dan Jackson to come up trumps and have magically moved in to somewhere huge.

Or, else, we're all going to be needing hotels. Top tip folks: "The Lanes Hotel" isn't in the lanes at all, but is on the seafront and often has cheap rooms if you book in advance.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

Cheers for the top tip

[PJ Hannah B-R]

Still a hideously expensive top tip...

I REALLY want to come, but I actually can't unless I can get floor space by the looks of my initial research combined with general poviness!

Tim. Get begging of papa. I'll lick your face.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[Joinee Meek]

Tim. I want HBR in our flat* and Mhairi and Siobhan and all the other cool kids. So there!**

*I'd like to note it is Tim's flat but if he doesn't do what I say I'll bite him.

** I'd also like to note that Tim nearly knocked a glass of gin out the window in this flat which upset me very much therefore he owes the gin gods a favour.

ALSO on the blackmailing levels if I can't stay at our dad's I can't come either. Think no HBR and no Annie. Is it really worth going if we're not there?

Yay for being a cool kid! If this is the case I could still nip to Eastbourne in the morning for my anti-pirate shenanigans with my teetotal friend.

[Mr Phil]

I take it as read that I'm a cool kid too.

[SJ Del (The Train Man)]

There's Premier Travel Inn or Travelodge or similar on North Street, just opposite TKMaxx

[Gold Joinee Spaca-Sweeney(GA)]

There is the campsite as well, quite cheap, within reach and could be fun if a lot of us went,.....

Andy

[PJ Stevie G]

I'll sort out staying places eventually.

[Fab Loud SMJ YDMFreshmaker]

Pondering time.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

SQUEE!!! I CAN COME!!! It's official now

Hoorah!

[Captain K]

Don't worry about the cost of about places to stay - there are oodles of backpacker hostels and cheap B&Bs in town, you will be able to find an affordable one.

But I want to emphasise, *do* please book soon. Brighton is super-full in the summer.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

Yes DO book soon.

I've been doing investigations and using the internet have found barely anywhere for less than about £30 per person per night. And that's in dormitories.

Don't get caught out!

[Joinee Mum White]

Aghhhhh! Serious head muddle! I love Brighton, but I don't know if I can come yet. I'm also not sure that I can face the parking nightmare again! Oh! Oh! What to do? Mum White.

[SJ Del (The Train Man)]

Debating whether to just come down for the day and get a late train back, or stay over.
What goes on on the Sunday morning?

Well, we go for breakfast then to the pub...

Yep sounds about right.
