It couldn’t have been a more beautiful, sunny, balmy Saturday afternoon for the Pride fundraising picnic. A couple of dozen people gathered to chat, drink Pimms and pink Champagne, nibble nuts, and nurse shark bites, just behind the Meeting Point at Hove Lawns (I don’t think many people know how to find it in daylight).

Photos are taken, much alcohol consumed, more photos taken and… well, you get the idea. I was drinking my way through someone’s kindly supplied Pimms, and passing around a complete stranger’s sausage rolls. Suddenly it was 8 o’clock in the evening and I’m glowing with a Chernobyl suntan. Well, I certainly enjoyed my afternoon. Roll on Race Day.
