I retired from personal blogging in July 2008 but you can find me over at blog.xero.com

Brighton is on the South Coast of England.
We’re staying in the Grand Hotel, which was bombed back in Thatcher days I think. It’s very nice and I’m pretty sure you could fit a tennis court in my room.
When you come from NZ I think you really appreciate the sense of History. Brighton is special with a funky shopping area and great night life. I’d recommend a few days here if you get the chance.
I blew it with laundry again. We’re about 9 days into the trip so it was definitely laundry time. So I gave a bag to reception as ‘they were expecting us’. I get back my shirts wrapped with cardboard collar formers and individually wrapped socks. Each sock cost about £3 to clean. I’m too scared to look at the total bill. I should have burnt my old clothes and brought new ones.
