Bognor Regis -
Visited March 2013
In a word, disappointing, although admittedly it was a cloudy Sunday and there was a bitterly cold wind. Another pebble beach, typical of the south coast it appears, not that we would have been using on this visit anyway, but we didn't find the town that appealing, nor did we find anything interesting enough to want to return, it almost felt like it was a seaside resort out of season, not a town where people live and work all year 'round. However when in the area again, we probably will revisit or at least drive through, when the weather is better and when it's more likely to be "in season".
We should also research the place for more information on local attractions and things to see and do, which I normally do, but on this occasion my wife chose the places to visit.

Worthing - Revisited April 2014
This lovely town was en route back from Bognor Regis and despite having the same bitterly cold wind and the fact that it was later on In the "Sunday", it looked more inviting, there were more people out shopping and it gave us an entirely better feeling about being there and revisiting. The town was well looked after, with very clean and tidy streets and it had a better pier than Bognor Regis, definitely worth visiting, especially in summer, when it will have an even better buzz about it.
