Thanks to everyone who has made it out over the last weekend, all the artists for their fantastic work, and most importantly the lovely Hunny Lu Lu's staff for the help with the exhibition and pouring some mighty fine drinks. We look forward to seeing everyone next weekend.

Very Good Very Good !
A credit to Kessie , Emalii, Sam and all involved !!
A great selection of talent in a bar with character.
This will surly get bigger and better in following years.
I swung by on Saturday. Rather a flying visit i'm sorry to say. I had a day in Hastings with my Ma.
I'll be back next weekend and hope to spend longer at the bar.
See you next week

Glad you posted the pics of your tikis Trader Tark as I was not able to get a good pic on the Friday. They are very cool indeed! Sorry we didn't get to hook up but get in touch when you get a moment.
Take care - Trader Jim (Make mine a Mai-Tai!).

I just wanted to say we enjoyed the day out in Hastings. It was good to see a few Tiki folk and Saturday was also great weather for a spell on the beach. I look forward to an even bigger event next time.
Very nice to see the photos on here already - good work.
Andrew

Now that I have recovered from a weekend of rum and tiki, although this morning I drank some water and still tasted rum, I thought I should post some snaps of Hastings.
No English seaside town is complete without a pier, sadly the Hastings pier is shut, what a waste.
The net sheds down by the beach, full of tasty fresh seafood.
There are a couple of nice museums in Hastings and the exciting smugglers caves experience to entertain yourself outside of mini-golf and tiki artshows.
A lovely exhibit on "Biddy Champion tubman of Europe".
A suit covered in silver painted winkle shells.
A nice port lamp, Hastings has many fine antique stores so if you fancy a real one, go a wander up the old town and buy a real one.
..and finally some nice bits brought back by sailors, although I doubt many people would want a stuffed albatross for their bar, perhaps just on a stick.
Thanks to Kessie and Sam for being such wonderful hosts, the staff of Honey Lu Lus for letting us hang out and display our art and Shannon for coming all the way America and being such great company all weekend.
Its only a pity I can't go again next weekend and continue the fun.

Ahh... The many, subtle charms of Hastings...
It was really good to meet you Atomic Tony, it's just a shame that you're whisking yourself away to distant lands for so long. However, I know the lure of a quality stuffed marine creature will be enough to bring you back next year...

An interesting town, Hastings
So bummed out to see the amusement pier is closed. Reminds me of Pacific Ocean Park (POP) pier in Santa Monica before the fires.
Thanks for posting the pics. Learn something new everyday.

Would love to be there again but, alas, I have to work...
Hope you all have a great time though (and a Zombie or two for me).

I'll be heading off, pointing the "land canoe" south east, tomorrow early.
See you by the sea...
