West Pier, disappearing
After a reasonable sleep at the M4J4 Holiday Inn we made a journey to Brighton and its famous beach! I was interested to see the old West Pier as it was damaged further over the winter. The last time we were here there was quite a bit of superstructure left but now it's just the central area that's left.
on the beach, literally
the Palace Pier, still standing......
Then it was on to Fleet to see Ro and Mike our Arsenal loving friends. Nice to see them again and they have two labradors, Mia and Tilly. Very boisterous, not like Benson but still cute.
Visited the O2 store to get a couple of sim cards and sort out the best data plan. Now this was all very well but my phone battery went flat so went to get the charger. No charger, the last time I saw them was in the M4J4 Holiday Inn. As "Keeper of the Technology" it is my responsibility to make sure the electronics follow us everywhere. I triple checked all the bags, the car and any where else, but no chargers........ this morning contacted the Hotel and asked them to check the room, they had nothing in lost property, so we made plans to visit Maplin (UK answer to Jaycar) and buy another.
Later in the morning as I was drinking coffee Penny arrived from upstairs with the two chargers in hand, she had only looked in one place and there they were, of course I too had looked in the same place and found nothing. My theory is that she had secreted them to fool me.......
