I am rather fascinated by the thought that I actually might spot or be spotted by charliefarlie walking round Brighton!!! That would be a first for me and truly unexpected as I never ever see BE bags anywhere.

(If a toddler through a sippy cup at me in an airport - well I just might retaliate.)

Jenova - You just may see ME walking around Brighton soon. I am planning a trip there as soon as I get the go ahead from my family there. Seriously, I would love to meet up with the two of you for a bit.

Moonfancy - You poor thing. I will be feeling your pain on Friday. I'm glad you didn't get arrested for slapping that man, but it may have been worth it!

His legs were like 9 miles long, and hers were very short. I felt like getting up and slapping him. I would have been arrested for doing that, though, so I restrained myself. I hate long layovers in airports.
This is so funny!! I can just imagine you sat there reporting on all the days events with your beloved BE beside you. Are you travelling with a particular style?

Hi, Kel. Sorry I didn't see your post until today. I had my Choco Crash MMS midi with me that day. I do love that bag, but SO wish I'd ordered the full size. I managed to smash all my stuff into it, but I really could have used a bit more room. I've got an LM Goldie bespoke going right now, and I think I'm going to get the regular size. I am also suffering tizzies over the pewter, but I don't want to get another MMS or LM. I'm thinking the pewter in WTM?? I want to try all the different BE styles. I also love that sweet Hug Me, but would want longer straps so I can carry it on my shoulder. Hello, my name is Moonfancy, and I am a pocketbookaholic.

I shall be looking out for you Jenova! I have never seen a BE on someone else so if I do, it must be you ! Don't worry, I won't be stalking you, and I will try and stop my son from throwing his sippy cup at you! I am actually near Lewes but go into Brighton far too much!

Suzi, def visit Brighton if you can its such a great city, much more relaxed than London. Whereabouts are your relatives?

I've been to Lewes to hunt through the antique shops. Lovely little town but I always chose a freezing cold day when it pours with rain.

Finzup - You are the only one who even noticed (probably because I couldn't resist posting). April Fools!

Charliefarlie - I have been to Brighton many times, but it has been quite a few years since my last visit so I remember what it looked like but I would not remember how to get around. I have family in County Durham, Brighton, London and Oxford, so I was going every couple of years. However, when DH started his business it became difficult for us to leave the country because you really need a couple of weeks for England. Thankfully, things are getting to the point where he can trust others to run it. my favorite aunt in Brighton is very very sick and I have told her and my cousins that I will go the second they give me the okay.

We will all have to meet up for coffee or a pint (as you English say) when I get there.

I was just in Lewes a couple of weeks ago. My sister lives near there. I visited some antique shops as well and we had bruch in this lovely place called Bill´s. The weather was lovely as well as the town. For some reason I seem to visit Lewes nearly every time I go to England. Next time I am planning going shopping to Brighton.

LOL first I noticed you were banned, and then I saw a post where Megs was banned too, so I knew it was a joke :)

I go to Bill's when I am in Lewes. There is another branch in Brighton. Lots of shopping to do here!

Moonfancy.....YES YES YES....I just wrote in another thread, and in many others since its arrival that the pewter WTM is my favorite bag EVER!!!! I have had my share of bags and this one rocks so hard!!! I love EVERYTHING about it (except that d*mn secret pocket that never stays closed!!). I would buy this bag over and over again!!!! If you don't happen to get your mottled gold LM....then you really won't be disappointed with the pewter crash WTM. I have only carried my LM for one day, but my initial impression is that I love the style of the WTM more than the LM!! The LM is the BE bag that I fell in love with (as far as pix go) but there weren't any available when I ordered from BE. So I got the WTM and man, is that baby comfortable!!!
