December 2025. Bexhill-on-Sea. We’d entered the gates of Bexhill with such noble intentions. Culture at the De la Warr, a long bracing walk along the front, Eddie Izzard’s model railway… But too much beer early on had scuppered plans, and I wasn’t even in the mood for some clothes shopping for me.

The street art is one surprise, the extravagance of the row of houses between Marina Court Avenue and the… Continue reading MORE PRE-EMPTIVE BEXHILL-ON-SEA
BEXHILL SPOONS CARPET SPECIAL
June 2023. Bexhill (-on-Sea, if you must, pedants) Yes, another sunny morning in Sussex, and while Mrs RM works in the caravan I do the hard yards of exploring pubs culture on the coast. Bexhill is one of those towns I’ve always wrote off as “dull south coast retirement Cons club“, with two flying visits… Continue reading BEXHILL SPOONS CARPET SPECIAL
