Just a tad too far to walk to the seafront and get the Coaster buses, so we'll have to return on the 1807 Brighton & Hove service 2 to Shoreham-by-Sea (Holmbush Centre), arriving there at 1921 on Friday evening.
Deciding to sample a different service number, we next board the 2052 Brighton and Hove service 26 to Brighton (Old Steine) that arrives there at 2105 on Friday evening.
We walk around the corner to North Street and, heading away from this area we frequent to often, board the 2128 Brighton and Hove Coaster service 12 to Eastbourne (Cornfield Road), arriving there at 2240 on Friday evening.
That was the last train to depart, so taking advantage of the overnight travel relaxation rule, we bide out time away until we board the 0506 Southern service to Falmer that arrives there at 0519 on Saturday morning.
We take 5 minutes to walk the 0.3 mile to the eastbound railway station bus stop on Lewes Rd, where we await the 0606 Brighton & Hove Regency Route service 29. We alight at Uckfield (Bus Station) at 0637 on Saturday.
Avoiding Thameslink and central London like the plague, we next board the 0903 Southern service 1C16 to Fratton, arriving there at 1057 on Saturday morning.
From the station forecourt, stop R, we take Stagecoach South service gold 1 at 1241. We alight at Camberley (Pembroke Broadway, stop A) at 1303 on Saturday.

I normally stay in the Premier Inn in Addlestone when I go to London, massively cheaper than central London and means I can enjoy the train ride into Waterloo!
We take 3 minutes to walk the 0.1 mile into Kingston railway station, from where we await 2O55, the 1918 South Western Railway service. We alight at Clapham Junction at 1939 on Saturday.
Noting there is just a five-minute connection time for Southern services at this station, this allows us to board the 1946 Southern service to Reigate that arrives there at 2024 on Saturday evening.
