Where In Sussex

I can’t believe it is Sunday already!  I have had quite a busy old week, nothing spectacular, just busy every day, or that’s how it seemed.

The highlight of the week was on Friday, which was Jessica’s 23rd birthday, so I went over and her family got a take-away curry in for lunch and then we all went to watch Harry Potter at the cinema.  It was nice to have a Friday off work too!

This morning I went for a nice cycle ride at 9:30am.  It was quite tough in places, well, tough for me, I’m sure that a steroid induced rider would have found it simple.  It was a nice ride, through the flowing countryside of the Ouse Valley here in East Sussex.  I left Newhaven and went along the A26 and A27 to Beddingham and Gynde, then down the lane, past Gyndebourne Opera House to Ringmer, and then through Lewes and down the valley past Iford, Rodmell, Southease, Piddinghoe and back to Newhaven.  It was 19.9 miles, which saved my lazy week as far as cycling is concerned.  The hill from Glynde to Ringmer via Glyndebourne was a real git!  But I feel better for it; especially now I’ve had a nice lunch!
