Beautiful Eastbourne

[gracia143]

Been nice to have taken a bit of a break and see Eastbourne and Pretty_d30 Joy there. The above ground train ride was interesting and less boring, have sat and chatted with a few locals from Lewes. Have found out that most people who live along the coasts are older ones. Taken some photos and surprisingly enough, I wasn't wearing layers of clothes although most of them there did. It was warm and bright when I got there. Joy--see you again soon my friend and thanks for the warm hospitality. Have a great weekend everybody!

It is warm, but it is about twice what the norm is at the moment.....don't worry.......the weather will compensate for that, we should have Moscow's weather around March

Don't they have Electric buggy lanes instead of Bike lanes there?

I bet they do and though you can smell the old folks pee still it's a f lovely place.

Thanks Kimmi, yes I am alright getting the knack for discovering the UK other than suffering the weather in London. I'll be in Suffolk County next week-end to see some old friends. I hope you will get your visa soon.

Already picked up ye olde english habit of talking about the weather
Before you know it your be watching the weather forecast and find one day you talk to a neighbour or friend you see in passing and all you chatted about is the weather for 5 mintues

Hi gracia glad you like eastborne been there as well for a week holiday.but majority of the people there specially the older ones were a holiday maker.hope to go back there one day.I wonder if yor tried their sight seeing boat?it was a nice experience for me really its a shamed you`ve not been there last summer,you could then enjoy there lovely beach

[gracia143]

Yeah, right! but then we can shift to talking about football games and cricket and something about the ailing Prince too? Price of butter perhaps...all of these is really very English to me.

Oh you're right about Eastbourne Mrs. Daddy but I hadn't had the chance to take the boat and rode off to France which could have been really exciting, next time perhaps. But what interests me is the Bitchy Cliff, they call it that. Hmmm I wonder if the telltale is true about people committing suicide there.

Its very true gracia,many people jump from Beachy Head every year,they just want to escape from the tax man

Beachy Head is the main suicide place....usually a weekly occurence...I think you can buy tickets on Ebay

Something like the bridge over the harbour in Yokohama....
Where tickets machines are placed at either end.....
