Ahh, Autumn is here and Winter approaches. I'm gathering my nuts and getting ready to roast on open hearth and I'm already getting annoyed with Christmas ads on the telly.

Whilst most seaside towns are in decline for the winter, it's just business as usual for Brighton, albeit with a different wardrobe out on show.

So it's nice to pop into the Amsterdam and see that they're not just a 'sun-is-out-so-let's-do-the-Amsterdam-terrace' queeny thing and that the bar is cosy and awash with lovely friendly people!
