Possible Brighton Meet this summer?

[Noodles!]

Sounds like a good idea Claire, i've got loads of stuff that needs a good home.

[neonpixie]

Oooh or we could do like a handmade thing - people who can make dreads could whip up a few dreads, people who make hair bows could make those, people who make jewellery can make some small things up and bring them along, then people can just trade with each other, sort of like a hippy market lol. For the people who can't or don't have time to make things, they could always bring along things that they already have but don't want anymore like jewellery or clothing. The uni did a Barnados clothes swap like this and it worked really well

Oh I love this idea it sounds awsome

[spook-show]

Yeah that does sound good, im none so great at making stuff though, so have to find some cute bits n pieces i have lying around like beads n such. Im up for the pot luck foody picnic to because i can make food well! Im def gonna need a hotel so like a list for that seems good aswell, i know an awsome club with really freindly owners that i know, but im not sure the music would be everyones cup of tea!

ooops i totally forgot about this thread.

i have the Brighton festival book somewhere but heres the website of whats going on. http://www.brightonfestival.org/

I dont mind meeting people if theres people in the Hove area, theres lots of B&B's this end that are cheaper.

Search Brighton and Hove for hotels and B&B's Hove will be cheaper as its outside the city.

Which club is that?

Yay! Glad everyone likes the hippy trade idea I'm so excited about this that I want it to be sooner!!! lol

If anyone is thinking of booking a b&b or a hotel, I would say book it sooner rather than later - I used to work with the Visitor Information Centre here and you wouldn't believe how quickly accommodation gets booked up in this city when it's summertime.

Here is a good place to start looking:
http://www.visitbrighton.com/site/accommodation

As it has most hotels, guesthouses and b&bs listed, to cater for various budgets and tastes.

The engine rooms, i knwot he bloke that owns it and stuff erveryones really nice friday nights its metal/cheese mainly

[ClaireCalavera]

Oh Deviant!!! Hehe yeah I know it, used to go there quite frequently! I sort of know the guys that run it - it's good on a Friday but on a Saturday it's less metal and more classic rock, isn't it? Still, there's plenty of variety for nights out here in B-town, I'm sure there will be something for everyone

[Noodles!]

I'm so excited for this, i'll finally by 18 so I can go out, yays!

[plum poison]

I havent looked at this thread for a little while- is the plan still second weekend in july??
I think the budget theme swap thing is a nice idea, people could make a few accent dreads of their own signature style or something

[Becca]

Actually that Andorra place that got posted is 5mins away from me too, and in a very lovely street
I can meet people too; I am nearest the car parks that would be used. There is a huge underground car park in my square too that is £12 for the day. This is in Regency Square incase anyone needs to know where it is etc

There are other cheap b&b's near me such as Valentines House, but it has very mixed views.
I think Umi is reasonable too: http://umihotelbrighton.co.uk/index.php/rooms.php

[paran0ir]

I'm really excited about this meet now, went to Torture Garden in Brighton at the weekend, and I wish I had more time to explore the area, the weather was lovely on Sunday!

[Sophrodisiac]

The weather really is getting really nice now ^^
I can't wait either, i'm contemplating things to bring, foodwise and for the little swap. =]

[Becca]

Ooh I have found this place:
http://www.brightonroyalhotel.com

They do £20 a night for private rooms and £15 a night for dorm type rooms; so if anyone wants to have a big group room it would work out cheap! But the hotel isn't very big (10 rooms) so you would have to book early!

[Sophrodisiac]

Ah, that looks like a good one, as long there is sufficient space. ^^

[spook-show]

Oo id be up for getting in on like a big dorm room tyope thingy

[MissChelsea]

Yeah I'd be up for sharing a dorm too. I'm rather looking forward to this now

[ClaireCalavera]

I havent looked at this thread for a little while- is the plan still second weekend in july??

I believe so

[Noodles!]

Wow it would be awesome if you all managed to get a dorm together, was going to say that if worst comes to worst, a few could crash at mine; it's only a short distance away from the centre of town.

I'm so hyped for this now, I can't wait to see everyones reaction to all the bright hair, but Brighton's pretty chilled about stuff like that anyway ^_^'

[deadteddys]

Hey I think we should make a new thread in reguards to this as the information is a bit all over the place!!!

[dragongirl]

I'd like to come to this, but agree with Deadteddies the information is all over the place and I'm not sure what is happening when.

[Noodles!]

If you want, i'll start a new thread tomorow. Just to confirm, we are all ok for this date yes ---> 11th July?

Yes, that is the date I believe everyone agree'd on I just have no idea where we are meeting and what swaps are going on?

[Noodles!]

Swap - from the look of it, I think it was like we are all bringing used hair accessories or uh hair to swap with each other?

Don't think we established a meeting place or time. I suppose somewhere central... Outside Cyberdog?

Since alot of people either haven't been to Brighton or have only be to some parts I think somewhere like the entrance of the pier might be a better place to meet.

[Noodles!]

-Nods- I was thinking perhaps Brighton station? But whatever is easiest for people is fine by me. ^^

I suppose it depends if the majority of people are coming by car/ train etc.
