Rainbow Motor, Hove

Day 46 of 365. Today me and my brother drove down to Brighton & Hove to spend the weekend, with me running the half marathon tomorrow.
On the way down we stopped at one of our favourite pubs outside Tunbridge Wells - we had some really nice food and I had a very agreeable pint to wash it down with!
Things then started to go a bit pear-shaped after that. Finding the hotel was easy enough but the car park was another matter altogether. The first hotel car park was full so the receptionist told me about the overflow car park nearby - unfortunately due to the one way system, the fact that it wasn't signposted at all and the entrance was almost impossible to spot we drove round for ages slowly getting angrier and angrier. It became the sodding car park, then the f****ing, bloody car park and then just a howl of expletives!
Eventually, after about forty minutes (and a further trip back to speak to the receptionist!) we found it - no indication anywhere that it had any connection to the hotel at all (only by looking through another car's windscreen did we spot a hotel permit).
After a calming cup of tea and a Jaffa Cake or two we decided to go for a drink and something to eat at one of our favourite pubs in Brighton - and promptly got lost! This shot was taken while losing the will to live - after another hopeless half hour we found it and devoured a pizza each and a couple of pints. Then we had a good old laugh at our misfortunes and managed to find our way back to the hotel without any swearing!
