Today's excursion: Brighton Library! We took the boys up for story-time and admired the Jubilee Library, which is all glassy and modern. That said, I prefer the weathered old architecture of the Hove library (photos to come), which is more in keeping with the sort of weathered old atmosphere I like in my libraries.
Oh, and we strolled around the Brighton Pavillion and shopped at Marks&Spencer. But the library was the best bit.
Nice library! Hope the petrol situation doesn't cause you any problems driving to Corsham.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, if Derek takes you to his "local" ask to meet John,a 90-yr-old who has visited NZ before and who knows Barry Friend. He would be absolutely delighted to meet you. Just watch out for his handshake - he was an RSM in the British Army.
ReplyDeleteSarah and I did pop into the pub after we got home from Bath, but we missed seeing John. I did get warned about the handshake though!
