Go Niners


What a day we had on Sunday. Up in the dark, even though we had had an extra hour of sleep and it was raining. Why you might add, afterall it was Sunday morning, with an extra hour in bed? Read on and I'll tell you why,

49er's fever, that's what got us out of bed and into the dark and damp

Southern Rail were doing maintenance on the rails on Sunday so we decided to drive to Polegate and leave our car there for when we returned. As I just said there was rail maintenance going on so buses were replacing the trains to Lewes.

I knew the day was going to be a typical  WFA, Willis Family Adventure when the bus driver went to start the engine and found the battery had gone flat, Nancy said he had probably played his MP3 too long.

Not to be concerned, we got off the bus and prepared to drive to Lewes, where we were assured there would be a train. But hello, as soon as we put our dainties on the wet Polgate car park a nice shiny double decker pulled into the car park. The driver informed us of his intentions to drive us post haste to Lewes and the train.
