1 Make sure you wear your comfy shoes!!!
2 Get in a good breakfast! Actually, get in a LARGE, good breakfast.
3 Arrive at venue at agreed time and walk past. Take your nerves to the sea and fling them at the seagulls!
4 Walk back to the venue and enter trying not to show the nerves you just tried to feed to the seagulls.
5 Hope the people you are saying hello to in your friendliest way ARE the VT members you think they are.
6 Get welcomed into a great crowd of frangers (friends who are strangers but not for long).
7 Drink, walk, drink, walk, drink, walk, get changed, walk, eat (with drink), walk, drink, walk, drink, walk, drink, walk, return to hotel, drink, sleep the sleep of the dead!!
If you're at all unsure - make sure that you take the right kind of protection with you!
You took a camera with you for a reason - now get taking some photos.
- Pros:There's plenty to do in Brighton
- Cons:Your liver might need a pep talk first!!!!
- In a nutshell:VT meet in Brighton - of course!! Come on Martin, get Brighton 2007 posted now!!!

Thanks for your interesting story ><><><><
Nice tip! The Palace Pier looks nice! I will probably visit this place --- now I have to find out how to get to Brighton....will the weather be okay in September? Norman :)
Brighton is a fab place not so sure about the pier though esp in the wind :-)
Brighton - well surely the rain would stay away from here but I see the Rain Police! Stop huffing & puffing and blow the rain south of here!! Bring me sunshine!!
This tip is very interesting! Brighton is one of my list. heard a lot from my inlaws. Thanks Gilly. nice weekend. juliet
I hope to visit Brighton someday. Thanks for the great tips and info.
Me !!!!
Brighton and Hove were our Whitsun holiday haunts. Lots to do, and happy memories.
