I am in the next village to Selsey. Big,big skies.

Quite often,when the rest of the country is buried in snow,we have a bit of rain.

So the sun does always shine upon the righteous then, and us.

I think its the coastal towns between Bognor and Shoreham that get the most sunshine...


River Adur runs down to the English Channel in the East and River Arun to the West in Littlehampton

The South Downs are directly behind to the North and that little "pocket" often seems to be drier than other places, drive over the Downs ..eg Midhurst and ,Horsham and its often a lot wetter...

Though this week I think we`ve had a lot of rain everywhere...

so much for Flaming June !!!.

Hi.

Just read in the paper today that West Sussex is officially the Sunniest County in the Uk.

For those of us that live here we are not suprised.

Bognor Regis { about 5 miles away from me}...holds the record for the Sunniest place... over 1900 hours of Sunshine a year according to the Met. Office....


Devon, Suffolk and Cornwall were 2nd 3rd and 4th.....
