Sunday, what a day! In fact, what a weekend!

Brighton Pier.

Glorious sunny weather, the lanes alive with Brighton’s finest, our beaches packed with families and party people, and thousands of new visitors; it couldn’t get much better!

While some were starting off their all-over-tan, many new visitors managed to get a all-over view of the city: they ran the inaugural Brighton Marathon.

Crazy, but hats off to them. Watching thousands of people trundle past, each battling their way, each raising money for a worthy cause, you couldn’t help be inspired.

The Hove lawns were alive all weekend: Footy teams out, vying for space with the army -style workout recruits;  barbeque crews getting to grips with their first alfresco meal of the year; and families and cyclists, wandering and rolling along the prom – perfect!

It’s all just a taste of things to come; the weather this week is glorious and Brighton is, as always, up for it. So what are you waiting for: Come on down!
