Things About Brighton (the city) you find weird

[Mendoza]

Well the football season is over, apart from one game, so we need stuff to talk about.
So lets start on the city itself, and things you find weird about it

I'll kick off with 2

Regency Square car park - how come you go in it, go down three levels for the exit, but still come out on the same level as you entered

What happened to Pirates Deep? It was surely the best kids playground in town!!

It's weird how a beautiful football team doesn't have a beautiful stadium.

Me too. But it was made by an old chum of mine ... Hamish Black.

By his standards of modern sculpture, the doughnut is far from "wierd", though.

I have NO IDEA what this one is all about:-

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

the gays

 

[coventrygull]

The west pier

 

[surrey jim]

how AMEX have their european, african and asian HQ in Brighton, surley it wouyld be cheaper up north (cheaper wages) or more prestigious in London

 

[Woodchip]

The funny U shaped ornament on the beach. Much weirder than the dount.

 

[REDLAND]

The Brighton office deals with customers over the phone so it doesn't need to be based in London with the rent up there. Anyway, the registered office IS based in London at Belgrave House.

They obviously have some decent tax breaks here in Brighton.

A bit like L&G, with a registered address in London, but HQs in Hove, Cardiff, Birmingham and Kingswood.

I find pebbles on a beach weird.

That has been flattened - for about two years!

The strangest thing is the people of Hove.
