Anybody able to confirm what the plural of Elvis is? Elvises? Elvii? Probably not as straightforward to name as the Spanish fireman who called his kids José and Hose B.

My first landlord in Brighton had a mate who was a Pink Floyd roadie. His daughter was blessed with the name Parody Tralala. Round about the same time was a story in the Argus about how the registrar had refused to register one couple's kid with the name Beelzebub :lol:

I used to do Mierscourt Road on my paper round :lol:

Spent most of my teenage years on the Parkwood estate in Rainham. If you like punk and have any connections with the Medway Towns, you'll LOVE this...

Can't say I've noticed it, though I'm sure you're probably right. But at least the council has reclaimed the MIDDLE section of the Level, eradicated the benches and the bushes and opened the whole thing up. If the street drinkers want to sit around the 3edge of the Level then fair enough...

The Level is WAY more non-street-drinker-user-friendly than it used to be tho eh? For which all credit to the most recent Brighton council. Just now need the new lot to finish the job and introduce the congestion charge to teach twunts to think twice before jumping in their cars to drive half a...

Um, OK, not sure what that actually means. Tho I'll fight to the death for your right to say it. We're like that in Brighton. Or at least we used to be. :wink:

I've lived here since 1980. If that makes me a non brightonian, meh, who gives a shit, I'll live with that :shrug:

Well you seem to be perpetuating your ignorance of the reality of Brighton property prices and associated issues that a few people called you up on in another thread, or maybe earlier in this thread. Brighton is particularly special in that regard.

Personally, I'm of the opinion that people moving down purely on the basis of property prices and commuting times will erode the soul of what made the town a bit special. Already it means that the sweet local kids who go to sixth form college here have to either a) live with their parents til...

I like to think I moved to Brighton for the right reasons. In fact I KNOW I did. The reasons were nothing to do with shrewd swivel-eyed acountancy comparisons of property prices and commuting times. I moved down from the Medway Towns - in 1980 - because, as a punk, I'd spent the previous four...

It's not an easy commute to London from ANYWHERE in Brighton. Seeing as how its only fifty-odd miles in a straight line, it SHOULD be. But its not. And probably never will be. Sadly it doesn't seem to deter - yet! - the DFLs who are slowly but surely eroding the spirit of the town and making it...

If I didn't live in Brighton I'd live (in the UK) in Shoreham. Excellent town!

Lazy cliched journalism at its worst. Must have taken all of five minutes to write.
