Good striding!

Oh bless, Julie! It’s lovely, isn’t it!

Before I got fibromyalgia and old! I would run from Bevendean to Hove lagoon and back. I live in Somerset now but have memories of most of the places you paint. You paint them so well, I can feel myself there. X

Thank you, Julie. Hope your fibromyalgia gets better. Somebody on the bus just now told me magnesium cream is the answer to all our woes!

Thanks Shirley, magnesium cream is helpful and Epsom salt baths. I walk now as unable to run. Other half still runs though. We lived below Holingdean golf course another of your fabulous paintings. My fibromyalgia is severe. But I've accepted it and manage better now. Still horrible. As long as I can still draw though.

Excellent painting Shirley.

A place I used to go very frequently. Loved striding up and down it.
