To think this looks like hell on earth?

Brighton

Our light summer breeze was actually quite fierce.

oh, how awful, was just looking at the Brighton news, and found this

warning - tragic

I'll tell you what does look awful, blue ice cream

The DM always uses pics of Brighton for its "Phew, what a scorcher" stories. Anyway, I agree, the beach on Brighton is ghastly, though Brighton as a whole is fab.

The nude bike ride isn't my cup of tea.

I swear, they print the exact same picture every time we have a heatwave.

are you referring to the nude bike ride?

Good ol' Dave is as eloquent as ever

(Regarding hayfever)

"There?s obviously one or two plants that, when they flower, hit me and so, just this morning, I woke up and I had it."

That bit of Brighton beach is always horrible when it gets hot. Much nicer further along in either direction.

No, maddening. Just the packed beach ones.

Worthing- quieter Mr Whippys are cheaper too

Kind of reminds me of photography.nationalgeographic.com/photography/photo-of-the-day/king-penguins-and-elephant-seals/

and not a dog in sight ...

The naked bike ride was near me!! I was in my town on the sandy beach though. But there are plenty of pictures on my FB homepage by friends who it passed. Apparently Pompey has never had such a view

I love Brighton but decided not to go today as we knew it'd be heaving so we went a bit further out, to Littlehampton instead. Proper beach and not nearly as packed as Brighton.

Haha, stealth Daily Fail link foiled by my tea and kittens blocker. Life is good!

If you go to Newhaven (East of Brighton), and know the right places, you can actually find a sandy beach! It's not packed either ...

Brighton is fab, best seaside atmosphere ever.

Aberavon? Fuck me, that brings back childhood memories

I like Brighton but never go in the summer unless I am travelling by train and am childfree. Too busy and the traffic is crazy as is the parking. Eastbourne is way quieter and has better stuff for kids IMO. Newhaven seemed nasty to me but I may have missed the nice beaches. Worthing is also nice although the smell of seaweed is seriously strong!

Agree - total hell
