……I didn’t drive. I didn’t go on the train. I cycled, as part of a big London-Brighton ride in aid of Great Ormond Street Hospital. Did I do it for charity or for personal vanity? Probably a bit of both. When I finally pedalled, leaden-legged, on to the seafront, this is the track that came to mind. Featuring a young Jona Lewie, it really is about a jaunt from London to Brighton. Though I think there were only two of us in our blue & white Great Ormond St jerseys old enough to remember it being a hit.
I went to the seaside yesterday…..
