Greenwich on Saturday 26th

[hamster8 at ...]

I will be there ... a quelle heure?

Someone mentioned Brighton as a good get-away from London.  It's 
certainly the nearest resort - forty minutes or so by fast train from 
Victoria ... about an hour fifteen (or thereabouts) on a stopper from 
Kings Cross City Thameslink via East Croydon, Gatwick, Haywards Heath 
then Brighton - if you find the right train, the wizarding one takes 
ten minutes and goes from Platform 10 5/8 (between Platforms 11 and 
12) - and driving is usually a doddle, unless you're coming in at the 
weekend during the summer, when it gets hellish.

I'll be in London for the 26th, obviously, but if there are moves 
afoot for any Americans in the area to head out to the beach for a 
day, then I'm in Brighton until June 29th ... and as long as nobody 
bothers me between June 16th and 22nd (exam revision) then I'm free.

A thought just occured to me, if Yael's tour fancies heading down here 
on one of the London days - the pier is great for small children and 
little beachside cafes abound.  It's a thought, and an embryonic one 
at that, and there is plenty to see and do in London without taking 
time to head out of the city.  Anyway, a thought, maybe.
