Suzi and I had never been to Brighton. From inclement Scotland it appeared to be a dazzling jewel - and that’s what it was.
The story of our year in the city began here on May 17.
An ex-teacher, my passions are Paris, Elton and Mozart, horse racing, writing, Suzi of course - and memories of Brighton, 2005 to 2006.

Pleasures of the Zimmer Zone part two
We needn’t have gone to Rye and Lamb House in the east, or Plumpton in the north, or for that matter, Chichester and Goodwood in the west. Nor was there probably any need to see the Steine or the Palace Pier, Preston Park or meander through the Lanes. No, because we had everything we required in the Zimmer Zone.

Cash and co
I had five minutes of fame on Southern FM thanks to Dave Cash, although if truth be told, the person I should thank is Suzi.

SNOW IN WORTHING...
Looking back at February 2006 reminds me that at the time Suzi and were increasingly looking forward - and not enjoying it one bit. We were entering the final trimester of our year in Sussex.

THE BRIGHTON BUG...
When I left the call-centre with my prize-winning bottle of white wine, little did I know that I'd never be back...and apropos my previous post and Christopher Hitchens, a thanks to 'anubis'.

BEFORE I GET TO PLUMPTON...
What's sadder than the passing of a year is the passing of a life.

BACKACHE IN BRIGHTON...
The story of our year in the city wouldn't be complete without a health report... or two.

Pleasures of the Zimmer Zone (1)...
From the moment we moved into our flat we decided that in its immediate vicinity we'd put 'doing nothing twice' into cold storage.

I wasn't the warm-up act, but I was getting the audience's attention.
