 Ailz guessed the tapas bar would be closed when she saw one of the guys who run it breeze past on a bicycle. And so it was- for "technical reasons" according to the note pasted to the inside of the window glass. Instead we went to an Italian restaurant a few doors up that we hadn't tried. Very good it was too. Eastbourne is full of excellent places to eat- and though we've had simple meals and run-of-the mill meals I don't think we've ever had a bad one.

 Water rats (that's the species to which Ratty in The Wind in the Willows belongs) have been re-introduced to East Sussex. I doubt I'll ever see one but it's nice to know they're around....

 The Sahara is turning green again. This is due to equatorial weather systems moving north. The anchor woman who fronted this story tried to put a negative spin on it by saying this meant countries like Nigeria and Cameroon were no longer getting the rainfall they need. Unfortunately for her agenda the clip had been watched by people who were better informed and the comments underneath mostly said things like "I'm a Nigerian and our country has never been wetter."
