I have only been to Brighton once, a week after the bombing of the hotel, but I loved it.......menopausalmusinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12255069917743230560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8336705414442145087.post-67384613325933892072010-02-16T01:22:40.520-08:002010-02-16T01:22:40.520-08:00Gosh what an interesting post.

Still need to read back through your other posts yet. Thanks for posting this, really interesting. Not heard of the book, Mr Bun being a Brighton lad will want to read that. We miss Brighton badly and would go back like a shot. Moved here for the usual grandparents and our children thing. <br /><br />I always loved the West Pier, never found it sad. I always felt as if a moment in time had been frozen by it's decay and it sat there in memorium to that. The dreamer in me loved to picture Edwardian couples strolling arm in arm. A beautiful pier.<br /><br />Lisa xBobo Bunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14564557200579080645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8336705414442145087.post-76387879188081013062010-02-06T12:59:51.222-08:002010-02-06T12:59:51.222-08:00Loved your post, I worked there for seven years n...Loved your post, I worked there for seven years not too long ago, took me a while to adjust, not too many similarities with where I live in Suffolk, but once i settled in I adored it and still miss it, two years on. <br />I saw some vintage swimming costumes today at Snape, funny how I would not have given them a second glance if it had not been for what I have read on your blog!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8336705414442145087.post-33747164653314830732010-02-06T11:54:00.565-08:002010-02-06T11:54:00.565-08:00I love Brighton.

We were almost opposite the remains of the West Pier - it seemed so sad to leave it like that.VintageVickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16468973681066716805noreply@blogger.com
