Ken Frost, a director of OhSoSwedish, which trades on the seafront to the east of the Palace Pier, said that the eastern side of the seafront was suffering from neglect while the western side was regenerated. He said: “With regard to the general decay of the seafront on the east side of the pier (unpainted railing, dilapidated areas, paveme wnt cracking) it is clear that the council only has eyes for the west. “Grants that have been awarded to Brighton have not, as far as I can see, been spent on the east side. Why? Where has the money gone? And why has it not been spent in part on the east side?” Ian Coomber, a planning consultant, who is working for both the Brighton Wheel and

the Soho House project at the Aquarium Terraces, also called on the council to back those schemes to bring the eastern side back to life. Gill Mitchell, a Labour councillor who chaired the seafront scrutiny panel, said that the party would be making repairs to the seafront a priority now it had the most seats on the council. She said: “The full scale of the repair work needed to the Madeira Terraces has just become clear and is made more worrying by the fact that there is currently no funding solution for their restoration.’’ A council spokesperson said that it was closing only those units and sections of walkway that had to be closed for safety reasons.

Spotting examples of everyday typography

Most people come to Brighton for the beach, the shops or a good night out. But for blogger John Worthington, Brighton has other attractions. The Scottish designer and self-confessed typography obsessive said that he “spent more time getting lost in the maze of streets around the city centre than on the beach but the amount of great type on offer (not to mention the pubs, markets and galleries) made the diversion worthwhile”. Mr Worthington, a part-time printmaker who lives in London and writes a blog called Urban Typing, scrutinised the town’s tiled doorways, painted shop signs and advertisements – and even old coal-hole covers. In a two-part blogpost, he wrote: “It certainly wouldn’t be a good type hunt without some coal-hole covers and the North Laine area has plenty.” Further afield, in Preston Street, he was delighted by earthy-coloured tiles, in a shop doorway, featuring hints of a decorative typeface that was almost completely faded away. Elsewhere, there was faded lettering of Hart Manufacturing Hatter - hidden in plain view high on the side of a building in

North Street. He reported: “According to Photo History Sussex, Hart Manufacturing Hatter was founded in the 1850s, meaning the type itself could be over 150 years old. Pretty good

going, considering its exposed location. “The lettering seems to be a mixture of three typefaces, a Clarendon-style slab serif, a regular grot and a more formal serif.”

Rivervale Mazda opens new showroom

www.brightonandhoveindependent.co.uk

Brighton Marina is sold to Wellcome for £200m

Brighton Marina is undergoing an ambitious development”

Rivervale Mazda has completed the renovation of its Victoria Road showroom, updating the dealership in line with Mazda’s new brand style. The changes ensure even better customer access and presentation of vehicles, plus stylish new furniture and fittings. The new identity for Mazda dealerships is being rolled out across Europe. Martyn Brown, general manager at Rivervale Mazda,

said: “We can’t wait for customers to see our new-look showroom; we’re sure it will be very well received, thanks to the sleek and stylish design. “We have been a Mazda dealership for over 10 years now and we have sold over 2,500 cars in that time. We believe this is thanks to the fantastic design and reliability of the Mazda range and, in its biggest year ever, we are very excited to be a

part of the brand’s development in the UK.” The six-car showroom was visited by Jeremy Thompson , Mazda UK’s managing director, to celebrate the opening.

For more information, visit Rivervale Mazda in Victoria Road, Portslade. Telephone: 01273 707007. Visit: www.rivervalecars-mazda.co.uk

Brighton Marina has been sold to the Wellcome Trust health charity for a reported £200 million. It will now become part of the trust’s £18 billion investment portfolio, which provides income to fund its work. The trust said that it had bought Premier Marinas Limited (PML) from the BlackRock UK Property Fund. Peter Pereira Gray, managing director of the Wellcome Trust’s Investment Division, said: “Taking sole ownership of PML adds a third wholly-owned UK assetbacked operating business to the trust’s investment portfolio and is a demonstration of our commitment to the industry and

our confidence in the management team and employees. “We will take a long term approach to the ownership of the business and look forward to the continued success and growth of PML.” BlackRock director Paul Tebbit said: “PML has generated strong returns for BlackRock over the last decade during which time we have expanded the business significantly. We are very pleased to have sold PML to the Wellcome Trust and are confident that the business will continue to thrive under their stewardship.” The Wellcome Trust is the world’s second highest-spending charitable foundation.

Golfing cyclists to raise money all way from Orkneys to Paris Greg Hadfield @BrightonIndy Paul Bonett, the Kemptown estate agent, is helping to raise money by undertaking the annual First Base Day Centre charity ride 130 miles, from Brighton to Paris. In a day. On June 20, the longest day of the year. But that’s not enough for him and fellow fundraiser Jim Stevenson. They are prefacing it with a ride from the tiny nine-hole golf course on North Ronaldsay on Orkney, down through Scotland and England, playing golf at a variety of courses on the way. And, just make the 1,000-mile trip more strenuous, Mr Bonett will also be taking part in two or three aikido classes on the way. (He is an aikido teacher.) The pair intend to leave North Ronaldsay on Monday, June 1, and arrive in Brighton on the evening of Wednesday, June 17. They will then play a last round at

Paul Bonett and Jim Stevenson are raising money for First Base Day Centre East Brighton Golf Course, get a night’s rest, and head for Paris with the main charity ride leaving Brighton for Dieppe on the night ferry on June 19. Mr Bonett said: “We are hoping that at every course, we will get a bunch of golfers to play a round with us, raising money for the charity. Also, we hope cyclists will join us for parts of this trip, to ride with us for a few miles and even play golf or practice aikido too. “Or all three!”

Starting from North Ronaldsay, Orkney Islands on Monday 1 June 2015, we will cycle through Scotland, England and France to raise money for a cause close to my heart. Along the way I will also be playing eight rounds of charity golf and taking Aikido classes, raising donations for BHT’s First Base Day Centre. I’d love for you to join us along the way.

Up to 60 jobs at risk as language school faces closure A language school in Ovingdean is closing with the loss of up to 60 jobs - a mix of full-time and part-time posts. About 20 of the staff live in and have been given a month to find somewhere else to live. An announcement on Ovingdean Hall College’s website said: “It is with deep regret that we announce the

likely closure of Ovingdean Hall English Language School. Please note that we will not be accepting any further inquiries for bookings.” Staff were called to a meeting on Wednesday (May 13) and told that the school had no money and no bookings and would close in the second week of next month (June).

The language school, which took over the 18th-century building from Ovingdean Hall School - a school for deaf children, which closed five years ago - was founded and run by Susan Evans. The school website said: “Sue has over 20 years’ experience in educational management and consultancy.”

Can the Greens and Labour bury the hatchet? Dan Wilson @wilsondan

Labour bagged the most seats on the council and are well within their rights to form a minority council administration. But the Greens, with 11, are far from a spent force. The challenges the new council faces are numerous. Since 2010, the government funding to the city council has been reduced by 40%. Local authorities up and down the country have borne the

There is an online campaign for a passport to the “Republic of Brighton”

brunt of cuts so far. And now we have a majority Conservative government, unfettered by the Liberal Democrats, that process will likely accelerate. Councils can function effectively as minority administrations and a coalition isn’t any more necessary this time around than it was 2011, when the Greens won the most seats. But it would be much easier if the red and green parties could co-operate to some extent. The citizens of Brighton and Hove sent a mixed message in the ballot box that we need to decipher. But there is a clear majority for the left-leaning, progressive, anti-Tory - take your pick – parties, in terms of votes and seats. And the Greens and Labour have common cause and some shared values. They both oppose the evisceration of local councils and they want to see front line services protected. There are many who don’t understand why Labour and Greens can’t work together for the good of the city. Many expect fullblown collaboration. But the barriers to cooperation are not purely, or even predominantly, political.

Brighton and Hove – but not Kemptown – is seen as a haven for left politics

There is genuine bad blood and animus between Labour and Green activists and councillors - as frequent bitter Twitter exchanges demonstrate. And the stage is set for further personality clashes. The Greens have elected the uncompromising Phélim Mac Cafferty as their leader. And with Alex Phillips also elected as one

of the deputies, it’s clear that the “watermelon” faction – green on the outside, red on the inside - is in the ascendency. Leading the council will be Labour’s Warren Morgan, who is something of a hate figure for Greens. On Labour’s part, many members hold the Greens responsible for Labour’s recent

wilderness years, with no MPs in the city and the 2011 relegation to being the third party. It’s a classic People’s Front of Judea - Judean People’s Front situation, so loved by the left. And loathing runs deep. But both parties need to remember they are there to do a job that’s much more important than party politics. And neither will be rewarded if the ugly bickering and posturing continues. It will be fantastically difficult to engineer a rapprochement, but business as usual will be a plague on both their houses. Just because something is hard doesn’t mean it isn’t worth a try. Ongoing angry tribalism and recrimination helps only one group: the Conservatives. And they love no sport better than watching their opponents tear strips off each other. The well-worn caricature of Brighton and Hove as the rebellious, leftleaning capital of alternative politics conveniently ignores the fact that one of the three city MPs is Conservative. And, out of 54 seats on the city council, 20 are Tory-held. Dan Wilson - a freelance writer and author - is a Labour Party member in Brighton and Hove

DISCOVER OUR NEWLY RENOVATED GUEST ROOMS 185 en-suite rooms have been refurbished, and have been transformed into comfortable, stylish spaces which effortlessly capture the Arts and Crafts movement, with historical styling alongside feature. Guest rooms have been redesigned in calming, harmonious tones complemented by highly functional, beautiful lighting. Guests are able to revitalise themselves in renovated bathrooms, featuring a large walk-in shower.

Factfile: “Dave Davey is a pretty male Lurcher who is almost two-years-old. He is so very special the staff named him twice! “He is a very friendly boy who is happy to greet people out-and-about. However, he prefers affection from his closest human friends only. “He does enjoy playing with other dogs but can be a little too much for some! “He loves his toys and will happily play on his own and needs to continue his training to encourage him to share. “Dave Davey needs an active home with owners who have the time to give him the attention he needs.”

Business Big investors eye restaurant business founded in Hove Investors are weighing up whether to take a stake in a restaurant chain that was founded in Hove six years ago. Giggling Squid has grown rapidly since it started selling Thai tapas in Church Road, Hove, in 2009. Now the husband and wife owners, Andy and Pranee Laurillard, are looking for funds to pay for even more new openings. Mr Laurillard said: “We’re trying to raise funds for growth. We still want to retain a majority stake and we want to pay our mortgage off. We mortgaged everything for this.” As well as in Hove, they have a restaurant in Market Street, Brighton, and 13 other sites in Sussex, Surrey, Kent, Essex, Suffolk, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Bath. At least eight new openings are in the pipeline with the goal of operating a chain of 50 to 70 restaurants within five to seven years.

Andy Laurillard has a recipe for growth

Their company, Giggling Restaurants, is working with accountancy firm Grant Thornton to attract investors, with an information memorandum due to be published in a few weeks’ time. Trade buyers and private equity investors are showing interest, according to the Propel Info newsletter for the food and drink trade. Propel said that Giggling Squid was “already in advanced legal negotiations to acquire six more sites, five in the Home Counties and one in the Midlands”. The company is looking to raise

about £10 million. Its most recent accounts, to the end of March last year, show turnover up from £2.7 million a year earlier to £4.5 million. Operating profit fell from £282,000 to £46,000 and pre-tax profit dropped from £258,000 to £4,000 as the cost of new openings rose. Mr and Mrs Laurillard are aiming for Giggling Squid to become Britain’s first national Thai restaurant chain. They spent £150,000 on a refit of the original Hove premises last year after huge hailstones came through the roof and led to the restaurant flooding. The Brighton and Hove restaurants are two of the bestperforming in the company. Meanwhile, Giggling Squid has hired Peter Morrison as its new operations director. Mr Morrison, who previously worked as operations director for Prezzo’s Chimichanga brand, lives in Brighton.

New director for Churchill Square

Mark Buchanan-Smith is returning to Churchill Square

Churchill Square Shopping Centre has appointed a new director. Mark Buchanan-Smith has significant experience in retail management as well as a strong background in operations and project management. Before joining Churchill Square, he was retail delivery and technical services manager at Hammerson, the leading ownermanager and developer of retail property. His appointment marks a return to Churchill Square, where he previously held the position of assistant centre director.

Mr Buchanan-Smith said: “It’s a fantastic time to be re-joining Churchill Square. “The centre is undergoing an exciting transformation with the Western Road frontage improvements, incorporating the new Topshop. There will be also be new names joining the list of leading retailers, such as Holland & Barrett, Kiko, and Schuh Kids. “These are exciting times for the centre and I look forward to getting to grips with my new role and contributing to the continued success of Churchill Square.”

The Rehearsal Chichester Festival Theatre May8 - June 13 The Count, better known asTiger, is famous for his spectacular parties. In three days’ time, in his elegant French château, his guests are to be treated to an evening of amateur dramatics, complete with lavish Louis XV costumes. The glamorous cast includes Tiger’s mistress, his wife, her lover,

and Lucile, the beautiful young governess who looks after the château’s twelve resident orphans. But as soon as rehearsals begin it’s clear that this eighteenthcentury play will unleash just as much passion, shock and intrigue off stage as it will on. Soon it’s hard to know when the scheming twentieth-century cast are acting and when they’re not. Written in 1950, Anouilh’s

savagely funny and devilishly clever comedy is a searing exposure of the characters we adopt, the truths we conceal and the secret roles we most passionately want to play. At its heart is a profound question: what is performance, and why do we need it? For tickets, call: 01243 781312 or visit: www.cft.org.uk

Summer clear-out at the Amex? Bradley Stratton @BradStrat

The Albion Roar Alan Wares @albionroar Sitting writing this as the sun is shining, we realise the one day of summer is nearly upon us – and that means cricket. We can tell this is the case because (a) it was foggy and rainy on Monday and (b) Sussex lost. This week in the Radio Reverb rabbit hutch, we welcome back

Zac Toumazi, chief executive at Sussex County Cricket Club, and Sussex fast bowler James Anyon, fresh from his stint in the commentary box with Adrian Harms. Tune into Radio Reverb, 97.2FM, online at www.radioreverb.com, or via the podcast on iTunes and www.albionroar.co.uk. The show is brought to you in association with www.oldfootballshirts.com

Albion need improvement in a number areas over the summer. Recruitment – or lack of it – can make or break a season before a ball has been kicked. It happened at Blackpool in 2014/15, and to a certain extent at the Albion too. With Sami Hyypia not arriving until mid-June, many deals to bring in players weren’t made until the season was underway. They weren’t prepared early enough, and that combined with a number of other factors led to what was a season to forget. This year, the Seagulls need to get things right, and with Chris Hughton in charge most fans will be confident he can do that. A number of positions need covering, and there’s every chance he could bring back some of the players who were on-loan last season on a permanent basis. Greg Halford and Joe Bennett would both have roles to play in defence. The former is being released by Nottingham Forest, and can play anywhere across the back four. The 25year old Bennett will find out

whether he will feature in Tim Sherwood’s plans at Aston Villa in the next few weeks. In midfield, Albion is well covered, and Andrew Crofts’ return from injury will feel like gaining a new player if he can get back to full fitness. However, there is still a need to add a creative attacking player who can break down opponents – in the mould of what Vicente, Andrea Orlandi and Joao Teixeira have offered in recent

years. The key area of recruitment is up front. Our defensive record last season wasn’t awful, but our strikers just couldn’t score. Whether we need a direct replacement for Leonardo Ulloa is debatable, but Hughton needs at least two new strikers – and one of those must be a proven goalscorer at this level. To make any progress, Albion must add goals to the side.

Jimmy Case: A true Brighton and Hove Albion legend Dan Tester @BHIndyAlbion Over the course of the close season we’ll be focusing on the people, players and games that shaped the club we know today. One such luminary is Jimmy Case. The word ‘legend’ is often used in football parlance these days, often wholly inappropriately, but in terms of this combative midfielder it is fully justified. James Robert Case joined hometown club Liverpool from local non-league outfit South Liverpool in 1973.

Jimmy Case, a true Albion legend

While learning his trade in the reserves he continued his electrician apprenticeship and finally graced the hallowed turf of Anfield for the first time in April 1975. Renowned for his toughtackling, pinpoint passing, thunderbolt shot, and classic Scouse moustache, Jimmy soon become a fixture in the side under Bill Shankly, winning the league four times and lifting the European Cup – when it was a knockout competition – on an incredible three occasions. Aged 27, Case was used as a makeweight in a deal that sent the cultured Mark Lawrenson – who always seems to forget he spent four years at the Goldstone Ground – to work with Bob Paisley. At this juncture, Albion were an established First Division club and in 1983, Case scored in nearly every round as Jimmy Melia, and his disco shoes, reached the FA Cup Final. Manager Chris

Cattlin, in his infinite wisdom, decided 30-year-old Case’s career was winding down and flogged him to Southampton for a paltry £30,000. The midfielder then went on and played for a further six seasons in the old First Division! A campaign along the coast at AFC Bournemouth and Jimmy ended up back at the Goldstone, at the ripe old age of 39! His creativity remained, if his legs had slowed somewhat, and his experience made a difference to Liam Brady’s side. Possibly the most memorable contribution during his second stint was towards the end of a stunning League Cup victory at Leicester City in 1994 when, with his team 2-0 ahead, Case timewasted taking a corner and was promptly sent off. He protested to the referee that he couldn’t hear the whistle – because he was deaf! His much worn boots were finally hung up at 41 and just a fortnight later he replaced the sacked Brady as manager, under incredibly difficult circumstances. His short spell at the helm is largely forgettable but what a player. Jimmy Case crunches into Manchester United’s Ray Wilkins during the 1983 FA Cup final A true Albion legend.
