Not sure if you are aware of this work that B&H council are proud of.
Buses now gridlocked down North Street (between 10 and 20 minutes from the station to Old Steine) and up being diverted down West Street.

What’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever done? I don’t mean “cheating on your partner” stupid, I mean stupid stupid. Like, once, I had this bubble bath which smelled absolutely delicious, so I took a big glug of it. That kind of stupid. (It did not taste delicious.)

2 arrests have been made after the recent attack on the local mosque.
1 suspected arsonist lives 25+ miles away, and the other is NFA.
There is no room for hate.
We are all the same underneath.

When the England and Wales men’s national football teams play a friendly next week they’ll walk out accompanied by 22 people living with dementia. To further raise awareness, they’ll also be playing the 2nd half without names on their shirts.

Brighton & Hove Council and East Sussex County Council are both treating Peacehaven like a child in a divorce.
They are quite happy to badmouth each other, without giving any positives about themselves.
#Peacehaven is not part of #Brighton, even if BHCC subsume it.

Are there any war historians here that may be able to answer a question about pillboxes?

Hello, is there anywhere this sound can be identified, please?
I think it may be a ground nesting bird (my initial thought was an amphibian of some kind, but now think it's a bird)
It was in Sussex.
Thank you

Does anyone know how to disable the Meta AI thing on WhatsApp on an Android phone, please?

AI and ChatGPT are "burning through energy", and the data centres used to power them consume more electricity in a year than 117 countries

I enjoy the #WalterPresents crime dramas on #Channel4, but wish there was an easy way to filter them by nation as I can't really get on with scandi drama (sorry!)
If I'm missing something, please let me know.
#FlowersOverTheInferno was great.

Springtime!
I think spring flowers cheer a lot of people up after the darkness of winter.

Hairdryer companies keep coming up with more powerful driers.
They are missing one of the largest demographics they have; people who want a quiet #hairdryer (under 65dB).
That #volume is ideal for sound #sensitivity, and you can use it in the neighbouring room to sleeping people.

It was bitterly cold and windy when I took these, apologies if they aren't as in focus as they should be.

If refugee processing centres were set up in France,a lot of this could be dealt with without the need for a dangerous channel crossing.
This should be changed asap.

If we give someone refugee status, it can't be right to then refuse them route to become a British Citizen. To say they can have a home in our country, but never a place in our society and be forever second class. freemovement.org.uk/good-charact...

@lewesdc.bsky.social Hello, I hear a rumour LDC residents can now recycle toothpaste tubes in kerbside recycling.
Is this correct?

Has anyone successfully grown peppers in Sussex? I've tried a few times with no joy, need a few pointers if you can help?
I'm going to save some seeds and buy some to see if there are any differences.
