MrBen Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I might stand alone, but I've never understood the fuss about Brighton. I like a stroll down a faded 1920'a pier and bracing sea air like the next man but cant understand the crap restaurants, pubs and shops selling crap + general druggie decay.
