Yesterday, again
Today is cold, wet and windy; the sea is a mucky beige colour (never a good sign) so here's a reminder of yesterday's gorgeous warm blueness.

The great outdoors
It's been lovely and warm at the seaside all this week and Brighton & Hove Safari Knitters celebrated the weather this afternoon with the first outdoor knit of the year in St Ann's Well Gardens. The park was really busy and we knitters were sandwiched between bowls practice and massed groups of mums-with-kids. A noisy but nice afternoon...

Sweet things
Sweet Boutique at 172 Church Road, Hove, sells old-fashioned sweeties in the traditional out-of-the-jar way. Cinder toffee or sherbet lemons anyone?

White and fragrant
Mexican Orange Blossom (Choisya ternata) is a popular evergreen shrub for planting in seaside gardens. Once established, it's as tough as old boots and the flowers have the most glorious fragrance. This plant overhangs a wall in a Hove Street garden and you can smell the flowers from several feet away.

Fancy an icecream?
Marroccos is an Italian restaurant on Hove seafront that sells 24 flavours of icecream - on sunny days like today, there's always a long queue outside.

Pheasant on a wall
A pheasant isn't the usual sort of bird you expect to find at the seaside - much more colourful that a seagull or pigeon!

Sunset with seagulls
Tonight's sunset - the 100m high tower in the distance is part of Shoreham Power Station.

Grey
After several days of sunny and warm weather, it's been grey and cold by the sea today - one of those dreary days when you can hardly make out the horizon.

Ancient & modern
What a mixture of architectural styles! Looking from the seafront across King's Road, that's the Holiday Inn on the left and the West Beach Hotel on the right.
