A stunning day, warm from the outset and as I had noticed that several of the neighbouring towns had events on today, I decided that we would stay put and not attempt to get around Eastbourne or Hastings and risk getting caught up in traffic in the heat.

Instead we contented our selves with several walks along the beach, making the most of the low tide sand and coastal breeze to keep cool….

I also took the opportunity to de-sand the van, having no immediate neighbours I was able to take all the carpets and mats out for a good shake, wash the windows, hoover and wash the floors and experiment with putting the awning out for the first time.

Looking at the forecast for the next couple of days we might be in for more of the same but actually a break from sightseeing is quite welcome at times though I might try an early dart to Camber? Decisions…

I do miss the turquoise seas….
