Summer Sunday afternoon / Brighton 30+ years later / memory lane
Decided to go and have a look at Brighton again. After all I am not that far away this weekend and it has been some time since I was there last. Easy train ride, less than 2 hours to get there…… It was actually ok – and expected that I wasn’t the only one with…
Afternoon in Britain / I love summer
