I arrived in Bexhill-on-Sea today for a four night stay. Oh, gosh, it’s good to be beside the seaside again. As soon as I knew lockdown was ending, I was on the phone to book a B&B.
May has been a rainy month. Certainly the wettest in some years. Not only that, but it has been very windy. One day I resorted to wearing a woolly scarf and hat! Today I got really cold waiting on the station platform, and then we went through one cloudburst after another. But I’m here now and I went for a walk this afternoon without getting rained on!
Today was about familiarising myself with Bexhill. On the map, it showed that Bexhill had a Tourist Information Office. Well, that’s gone! But it has a nice mix of shops and quite a lot of independent ones. The shelters on the seafront are colourful, and one plays music (just one section of it). When you enter, the music starts up. Music for the older generation – it played Ken Dodd! That made me smile.
It’s still windy, still rainy, but when the sun comes out, it is lovely. I’ve ordered a full vegetarian breakfast for the morning. Then a long walk is in order!
