The Undercliffe Walk at Saltdean, east of Brighton, is a very pleasant spot for a Sunday morning stroll even if I did make life more difficult for myself by making the already heavy Nikon F3HP even heavier with the MD-4 motordrive I’d picked up the day before from Park Cameras in Burgess Hill!

I love the area around Brighton for photography, so much to see, so many characters! Saltdean, a few miles east of central Brighton, is a much quieter place for a Sunday morning stroll though…

The above sign adorns Dave’s Comics in Brighton, East Sussex, a business occupying two shops on Sydney Street… but if memory serves this sign is actually above the one at No.3!

I’ve photographed this cheeky sign that advertises That Little Tea Shop in the Lanes in Brighton a few times but as yet I’ve not sampled said shop’s menu… I really must pop in for tea and cake at some point!
