I couldn't agree more. I hope your move closer to sea level isn't too depressing, Guy

At least you can go for a walk up the hill to see such spectacular views, "above the clouds"

Hello,

27 October 2008
On the last fine day before the forecasted cold weather, there were no butterflies to be seen on Mill Hill, just two Red Admirals on the Ivy on the Pixie Path and the last butterfly was a good condition Speckled Wood in the Butterfly Copse next to the Waterworks Road. In the afternoon, a Large White fluttered across Eastern Avenue, Shoreham near the railway crossing gates, followed by three Red Admirals, one over Southlands Hospital and another in Buckingham Park.

26 October 2008
No butterflies were recorded on a rainy day.

18-25 October 2008
Both Large White Butterflies and Red Admirals were seen on every day, but only a few and sometimes one only of each in a day cycling or walking around the residential areas and outskirts of Shoreham, Southwick and Lancing.

No Clouded Yellows recorded this year.
