Beside the seaside

Had a marvellous weekend, so flaming hot though! Got caught up in a hellish traffic jam on the M25 on friday afternoon for four hours. The ladyfriend and I looked like extras from Tenko when we eventually crawled into Eastbourne.

Saturday we went to Brighton Pride, Click here for picture Unfortunately we missed the parade by a sequin and trudged along behind it, feathers and flowers lined the road of dissappointment to Preston Park.

Once there it was like satan's back garden (some would say fittingly) it was so hot, we had to take shade and it did spoil our enjoyment. We left after a couple of hours and went for two lovely big Gin and Tonics in the Brighton tavern.

Sunday, the ladyfriend and I nursed our hangovers on the beach, we even took a dip, it was wonderful until I read a piece in the Times about great white sharks.
