 Dear Adastrans,

PUBLIC TRANSPORT TO THE RECORDERS' SEMINAR

This is really only suitable for those with concessionary bus passes!

It used to be possible to catch a No. 40 bus from Brighton to Hassocks 
Stone Pound and walk to the Adastra Hall before the 10:00am start time. 
I have searched every bus timetable and there is not a single bus 
leaving Brighton that arrives at Haywards Heath before 10:00 am.

BUT..... There is a way.....

>From Brighton catch No. 29 Tunbridge Wells bus, leaving Brighton 
Churchill Square at 05:52am, arriving at Tunbridge Wells station at 
07:15am (be aware that the 29 is limited stop as far as Falmer).

>From Tunbridge Wells station (Stop U) take the No. 291 Crawley bus, 
leaving T. Wells at 07:29am.  Get off at East Grinstead War Memorial 
(Stop J), arriving at 08:11am. (It is also possible to change at Forest 
Row (o/s Brambletye) if the 291 is late, but Metrobus services generally 
keep good time).

>From East Grinstead War Memorial (Stop H) take the No. 270 Brighton bus, 
leaving at 08:23am.  This passes through Forest Row (opposite 
Brambletye) at 08:32am and continues via Lindfield and Haywards Heath to 
Brighton.  Get off at the "Lindfield Adj West Common Drive" stop, 
arriving at 09:00am.  From the nearby mini-roundabout walk down 
Appledore Gardens and Oathall Community College is just past the end of 
this road.

I'm tempted to try this myself because the connections are good, but not 
too tight, and should work smoothly.  The Brighton & Hove route No. 29 
buses normally keep good time on Saturday mornings.
