You're right there it was murder on a sunny Saturday in June, the school holidays don't bear thinking about. Apart from being ridiculously expensive, there is another problem with Brighton in that Southern Railway not only cancel half their trains but they seem to have permanently stopped doing cheap advance tickets. I don't know if Thameslink (or whatever they call themselves now) do them at all. There's a pretty rubbish gWr service from Bristol way but Cross Country services don't seem to go there at all now.
