I should post here more often....

ummm, funny situation, got tons of stuff going on in my life which may well make interesting reading to the 5 people that know about this blog, but the lack of free time i have - because of all these interesting things going on - makes it tricky.

a strange, and very 2003 i suppose, vicious circle.

Pier Today, Gone Tomorrow...

Oh, the last entry here was about the Palace Pier being on fire. And now this one is about the West Pier being on fire. I see a pattern developing.

Perhaps I should register www.piersonfire.com or something....although at this rate, Brighton won't have any piers (on fire or otherwise) in a year or two!

Anyway, that'll be the end of the West Pier then...you don't quite expect landmarks that have been there throughout your whole life to actually ever disappear, but I suppose they do. Current reporting is suggesting that the people behind the restoration project still think it can be saved. I have my doubts about that.




The full pictures, if you should so want them, are here, as large (1mb or so) JPEGs.
