Just a trip to the library

And boy do we have a good one in Brighton!

Bonfire

So late in getting this to the site - and many apols. But here's some pics taken from the celebrations over at Lewes on bonfire night last week.

Sorry for the .lag but i couldn't resist putting this one up.

more pics over at Brighton Daily Photo extra

BDP is in Athens

On a short work trip. Back Weds.

Brighton at night....

....I liked the colour in the lit buildings - makes our (ugly?) rooftop terrace view light up at night!

How to start the day...

...Just what I needed to kick start the day.

Brighton Rooftops

This is the new view from where I'm sat a work, impressive huh?

I only wish you could convey "smell" in a photograph, because today you can really smell the sea - and it smells great!

Bandstand Restoration

I've been meaning to get a snap of our newly restored bandstand for some time. Apols for the .lag! But here it is in all its glory. Beautifully and lovingly restored.

This is what it used to look like over in 2006 on Brighton Daily Photo

The number of times I've passed it there's always someone making use of it. When I took this photo there were some breakdancers enjoying the spotlight.

I think it just looks great and I think the residents of Brighton appreciate it and are looking after it!

Hove station

Not too interesting a shot today - Hove station. What can be seen in the background though is the defunct Dubarry Perfumery Company....here's an account of someone that used to work there years ago!

Didn't get the chance....

...to get out today so here's a library shot...can't remember if I already posted this one.

Nice nevertheless though.....

Air and Sea Rescue

There seemed to be something afoot off the Brighton coast this morning. The HM Coast Guard air and sea rescue helicopter was out as was the lifeboat. "Blues and two's" on the seafront road as well, difficult to tell what's going on from the shoreline - can only hope everyone's OK.
