A channel for sharing my travels around the UK and my van adventures with Zeus the Staffordshire bull terrier,including walks in the countryside and coast and some chatting.
Brighton these days is an unholy mix of the super woke posh and aggressive chavs who come down from places like East Croydon to spend a day drinking at the seaside (I suspect that guy who told you not to record him was one such). For many years it felt like half of the Brighton population were internatioinal EFL students, especially in summer, which gave it a nice vibe, but it seems a lot of the language schools and colleges closed down during the lockdowns and didn't re-open.
Not the place it was in the '60's and '70's but a run down , dirty , neglected pale shadow of what it was like in those two decades . The Woke / Left wing politics of the large student population only adds to it's woes . A shame to see such a lovely town (now city ) decline so drastically and a place l avoid as it's too depressing and sad remembering how it once was and how it is now .
Only been once about 1995 and it was like being on a film set. Coming from a coal mining village up north I hadn't met anyone like the people who live in Brighton. Men wearing lipstick & Nail varnish. Went for a pint and the barman was wearing a leather waistcoat & cap and shorts with big boots. I don't think heavy industry had reached Brighton it was still operating in cottage industries. And everything was expensive.
@velvaalvarez9099 Thanks very much for viewing This particular video was intended to be a tour around the Brighton lanes,I will no doubt do one of the seafront at some point.
B-right-on 🌈. He should try walking around some of the estates pointing his silly little camera at people, ACTUAL Brightonians instead of visitors and students, try calling them “idiots” and see how he gets on. Not so “woke” 🏴
@ElisaMcGowan-t2q I love Brighton, it's my second home and I could not care less about any cult or movement, and at no point did I say anything negative about it.
_Brighton Lanes' videos are always inspiring and full of life. Their passion for Brighton is infectious, and their storytelling is top-notch. Keep up the great work!_
It is a lovely spot to be sure. Went a couple of times back in the 1950s with my parents. We travelled on the old Smith's coaches from Reading. I do not recall it quite so commercialised in those days but it is still very appealing nevertheless.
_Norden Farm is pure magic! You've captured its soul beautifully. This is breathtaking reminder to slow down and appreciate life's simple wonders. Your video is an invitation to connect with nature and find peace. Thank you for sharing this hidden gem with the world._
