After a quick breakfast Toni and I decided to go to Hastings, I figured the fresh air might do me some good as it was a nice day.
It's nice to see that Hastings never changes (apart from the cliffs which are slowly collapsing) and I was delighted to see the cliff lift still working.
Toni all smiley and yummy
KT feeling like shit and feeling it too
Nice to see the fisherman's huts still intact
We started off walking through the old town and discovered and amazing bookshop. It was wall to wall, and floor to ceiling books. There was hardly room to move in there but it was an amazing treasure trove of goodies. We walked away with five books and it was just as well we weren't spending longer in there as that could have been fatal.
Refreshment came courtesy of Costa Coffee and a chance to chill before stocking up on cold busting drug remedies in Boots. We then popped into Waterstones as they were having a Steampunk day. It was very nice to see this genre getting a push rather than languishing in the shadows of the Sci-fi and Fantasy section. As we had already bought a load of books our wallets were spared another bashing LOL. Our final shopping trip was a therapeutic hosiery session in Marks & Spencer which Toni and I both love doing. It's such a joy to be able to share this with her *grin*
Once back at Pam's we relaxed and watched Seven Years In Tibet. Somehow I had managed to not see this over the years so it was good to finally see it. I thought it was an excellent film and if you haven't seen it, you should.
Chinese food was ordered and then we watched a programme on short actors which was followed by The Station Agent. This starred short actor Peter Dinklage, of Game Of Thrones fame. It was an interesting film, quite different but really good. It's nice to be taken by surprise by a film and this one is definitely one to watch if you get a chance.
