Lunch with Martin James in Eastbourne: the rain was enough to soak you if you stood in it for any time or went near the sea and the wind could almost knock you down. In the high street there was a remarkably good busker called Slim Lightfoot http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRsLES2wRqU Most of the shops seemed to be charity run. There are so many that the charities are creating new retail niches. The Weatherspoon pubs were heaving with customers. We couldn't get into one so went to another where we probably only got a table because the kitchen was only operating a limited menu. But http://www.thebelgiancafe.co.uk/ on Grand Parade was nearly empty. Not surprising really because it was more Hercule Poirot than Jacques Brel. The sunniest place in the UK? What are all the other places like then? |
