Just seeing this. I need to figure out how to get notifications for new topics in this forum.
Awesome news about your vacation plans If you're planning to visit Brighton (and I highly recommend that you do), make time to visit the Royal Pavilion to get some perspective on HRH the Prince of Wales. Unless you've seen it already...no one should be subjected to that monstrosity twice. Haha.
Edited to add: My husband, who is from Brighton, describes it as England's San Francisco: very hilly, very hippie, very gay.
