OUT IN THE FIELD: Fur coat no knickers as Winter Garden refurb is cut back
How wonderful it is to see the long awaited Eastbourne Civil War Memorial taking pride of place in the Peace Garden at the Wish Tower. But even though it is in place, money is still needed to pay for the steel plaque listing the 180 names of those who died in the Second World War and plants to adorn the garden need to be brought. If you can get involved, details of how to donate are on page five.
And talking of additions to Eastbourne seafront, Mr Gulzar has announced the clock will finally be replaced at the entrance to the pier very soon. And going to chime just like Big Ben in London, apparently. I am sure I am not the only person to be wondering if it will chime every 15 minutes and on the hour every hour morning, noon and night.
