Sunday/Monday - Seaford

Arrived at Ken & Beryl's for lunch. We had never met them before but they made us feel welcome. We had some lunch and then they took us out. We visited Ken's boat and had a drive around Newhaven and to Beachy Head. We had driven close to it on the way but unless you know about these places you end up missing them. The cliffs are being eroded away very quickly and they have lots of pics of where it was when.
Unfortunately it is also known for suicides and later that night a man, wife and child were found. Very sad story.
After a lovely roast dinner we went for a drive into Brighton so show us where to go the following day and to have a look whilst not so busy. It is such along beach and all along lots of accomodation. The carnival was going on the pier and it was bustling.
Next day we went to Brighton to see the Royal Pavillion. WOW what a place. Extravagant, mindblowing and beautiful furniture, walls everything.
We also went north to the Bluebells railway and managed to get there in time for the last train ride. That was nice. As per ususal got lost on the way back and didn't arrive until 5.30. They must have thought we weren't coming back
