Chichester's courts. The government has been asked to consider alternative proposals for justice provision. Her Majesty's Court and Tribunal Service announced earlier in the year that the courts would be closed by next
year. But Edward Cooke, representing Resolution West Sussex, an association of family lawyers, said a pre-action letter has now been sent by lawyers representing Resolution West Sussex to The Ministry of Justice. The letter states that the decision to
close the existing Chichester Combined Court building (Crown and County Courts) without putting in place appropriate alternative local provision is unlawful.

PLANS have been announced to close a Natwest branch in Emsworth next summer. The branch in High Street, Emsworth will be shut after the bank said mobile and online transactions have seen use of the branch decline significantly in recent years. It will close on June 7 next year. Sean Palmer, spokesman for Natwest said: "The way people choose to bank with us has changed radically over the last few years. "Between 2010 and 2015, mobile and online transactions have increased by over 400 per cent and mobile transactions alone have increased by 1,350 per cent. "As a result of this change, we have seen the number of transactions in the Emsworth branch declining by 31 per cent since 2011 and 52 per cent of the customers of the branch are actively choosing to use online and or mobile banking for their day to day banking needs. "We are communicating with our customers affected by the closure and proactively contacting vulnerable and regular branch customers. "We have listened closely to feedback from local communities and have extended the time between announcing
our decision and the branch closure to six months. "This has been done in order to ensure our customers have time to consider the right banking options for them. "We know that not all of our customers are comfortable and familiar with using online or mobile banking, so we have created a new specialist taskforce of Digital Experts who will be dedicated to supporting our customers with training and support with digital skills. "We are following the Access to Banking protocol and we have made the decision after careful consideration of a wide range of factors, including regular branch usage and the alternative ways our customers can bank with us. "We provide a range of alternative ways to bank, tailored to the needs of our communities and reflective of the way our customers live their lives." These include online, mobile and telephone use as well as the use of free ATMs. An agreement has also been reached with the Post Office, with the closest being 0.03 miles away from the branch. It means that customers can pay money in, take money out, check balances and business customers can get coinage. A mobile branch service is being introduced to the community. A digital expert will be serving the branch until it closes to offer training and support. The nearest branch is in Havant.
Gold award for college after a major website redevelopment CHICHESTER College has won gold at this year’s FE First College Marketing Network awards in the Website Development category, sponsored by FEmarketing. The award comes after the website underwent a complete redesign in January. Julie Kapsalis, vice principal at Chichester College, said: “We are delighted to have won gold at the College Marketing Network awards. “Our website is a gateway into the college, and we wanted it to reflect
the outstanding standards we have achieved as a college. This recognition tells us that we have been successful in that ambition. “The award is really testament to the hard work of our marketing team, especially our digital marketing officer Hazel Saegert – who has driven the new website from its conception.” The award recognises website development for college marketing, and the importance for them to be attractive, informative, interactive and up-to-date.

Ho ho ho! Youngsters spread festive cheer and meet Santa f Santa in his grotto
BY RUTH SCAMMELL ruth.scammell@sussexpost.co.uk CHILDREN have been getting into the festive spirit by meeting Father Christmas at a museum. The Novium Museum in Chichester is hosting a variety of events this Christmas time. The big man is visiting from the North Pole on December 10 and 17 to meet children and spread the Christmas magic. Laura Williams, from the museum, said: "It's our third year and it's a nice addition for the children who come to the museum as they can visit Father Christmas in his grotto. "It's Christmas time so it's a nice festive addition to the museum. "We are very family friendly and very
family focused." Youngsters can write a letter to Father Christmas and are guaranteed a reply if they supply an address. Laura added: "We get quite a lot of children writing to Father Christmas and posting their letters in the postbox. "We have a group of elves helping to respond. "The children get so excited and they get so wrapped up in the Christmas magic of it all." Throughout December, there is a Christmas stocking trail and children have the chance to write a wish on a star and hang it on the museum's Christmas tree. Visiting Father Christmas costs £5 per child and includes a gift. To find out more information about events going on at the museum please visit thenovium.org.

Hard work pays off for city museum A MUSEUM has received a coveted bronze award at the Beautiful South Awards. The Novium museum won bronze for Small Visitor Attraction of the Year while it also received two highly commended awards for its Chichester Roman Week event winning the Tourism Event of the Year and the Visitor Information Provider of the Year award for the Chichester Tourist Information Centre. The awards have been running for more than 20 years and celebrate the visitor experiences available across the south and south east of England. They reward excellence, quality, innovation and customer service. This year they attracted a record 179 entries and were judged on a variety of criteria including web searches, review sites, emails, telephone calls, visits and value for money. Councillor Gillian Keegan, cabinet member for commercial services at Chichester District Council, said: “It’s a real honour for Chichester’s Novium Museum and Tourist Information Centre to have been recognised across three categories in this year’s prestigious Beautiful South Awards. “To receive the Bronze Award for Small Visitor Attraction is a real achievement, and a great reflection on the entire team of staff, volunteers and supporters of The Novium Museum.”

` Trees are saved TREES along a Bognor Regis main road have been spared from the axe. Arun District Council has refused planning permission for the removal of 12 ash trees planted in two groups along Shripney Road. THe applicant, Mitie Landscapes, also wanted to carry out various surgery to other specimens in the area. But council planning officer Zac Denton said in his report: "THe trees make a significant contribution to the area and, therefore, in the absence of any arboricultural justification, the works to the trees would be detrimental to the visual amenities of the locality."
` Felpham thanks THANKS have been given by Felpham Village Conservation Society for the £208 donated at its Christmas lights switch on. John Fenton-Jones, of the society, was granted a street collection permit by Arun District Council for the occasion last Friday.

More rail strikes RAIL passengers faced severe disruption on journeys from Bognor Regis and Littlehampton as a second strike began this week. THe drivers' union, Aslef, started to take action and joined the RMT in its long-running dispute with Southern Railway about the extension of driveronly operated doors on trains. Aslef staged a two-day overtime ban on Tuesday and Wednesday and will follow this with a three-day strike from next Tuesday to bring the Southern network to a halt. Both sets of industrial action are set to continue into next month to add further misery to long-suffering passengers. THe situation has prompted Church of England bishops in Sussex to call for an end to the 'cycle of blame' which is
causing such disruption to hundreds of thousands of passengers. Dr Martin Warner, the Bishop of Chichester, refers in the letter to the misery being caused to working people and their families who rely on the railways for their wellbeing. Backed by the bishops of Horsham (Mark Sowerby) and Lewes (Richard Jackson), Dr Bishop's letter refers to a 'moral obligation' to provide public transport while recognising the complexity of the issues involved. THey say their task as Christian leaders is 'to promote those processes which lead to human flourishing in a just and free society'. Meanwhile, Southern Railway went to the High Court on Wednesday to seek to make Aslef's action illegal.
£15,000 watch raid AN APPEAL has been made for witnesses after a £15,000 watch was stolen in Barnham. THe victim, a 65-year-old man, was at home in Lake Lane, when he answered the front door to two men about 5pm last Saturday. One of the suspects immediately grabbed the victim's wrist and pulled him outside. THere was a brief struggle before the watch strap broke and the offenders made off on foot with his gold Rolex. Detective Constable Ali Hutchings said: THe men were threatening and violent towards the victim, causing him minor injuries and stealing his high value watch.

Illegal workers detained after raid in town centre TWO illegal workers have been arrested in Bognor Regis. THe Vietnamese men, both aged 19, were arrested in an operation by Home Office immigration enforcement officers last week. THey were found to have entered the UK illegally and were working at a nail bar in the town centre. Both men have been detained and could be seen being led into Home Office vehicles parked in Sudley Road. Action is being taken to remove them from the UK. Assistant director Richard Lederle, from the South East Immigration
Enforcement team, said: "We are working hard to tackle illegal working and those who abuse the UK's immigration system. "Illegal working is a not a victimless crime. It also exploits some of the society's most vulnerable people. "We expect everyone here illegally to leave the UK voluntarily. For those who don't, the message is clear - we will find, detain and remove you." THe nail bar was warned it would face a £20,000 penalty for each illegal worker until it could be proved it had carried out right to work checks.

Gareth learns craft skills from one of world's best AN INJURED soldier from Selsey was given the chance to attend a woodturning course run by one of his idols. Former Staff Sergeant Gareth Roberts was delighted to be able to learn from one of the world's foremost wood turners, Stuart Mortimer, with the assistance of Help for Heroes. The result was a collection of objects such as a fruit bowl and a long and shortstemmed chalice crafted by Gareth, pictured inset on an explosive ordnance disposal training course. His efforts have inspired him so much he is looking into ways to further hone his craft skills and his taste for making things has extended to wooden pens and leathercraft items. Gareth said: "The course was great. I was able to take things at my own pace due to my injury in my left hand. "I was able to talk to people outside of a clinical setting to those who are going through similar things to me. "I didn't have to be so guarded and, because I felt comfortable, I felt better. "It has definitely relaxed me because I enjoyed it so much. "I was very focused, therefore, less stressed. I learned new skills and I really enjoyed the week. I'd love to go further with this. It's really fulfilling being given a tree trunk in the morning and turning it into something completely different by the afternoon." Gareth joined the Royal Welch Fusiliers in 1976 and served for 17 years. During
this time, he was injured on exercise in Canada when he fell from a Challenger 2 tank which resulted in multiple injuries. They included a spinal injury. He left the military in 1993 after a British Armed Forces restructure saw total manpower cut by about 18 per cent. Gareth went into the world of forensic science after his military career. But he still struggled with his physical injuries, especially as his dominant left hand was damaged. He also found it difficult to cope mentally as well. "The three tours of Northern Ireland have always stayed with me," he said. "We were subjected to daily bombings and rioting. I was eventually diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder in 2008. As time went on and without help, my PTSD was getting progressively worse." Gareth became a part of the Help for Heroes Band of Brothers membership where wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans come together for experience days, courses and support. He had always had a keen interest in crafts and woodturning and being creative. One of the courses jumped out at him. He said: "Once I joined the BoB fellowship, I saw a woodturning course advertised and applied for it. I was gobsmacked to see that the tutor was Stuart Mortimer - who has an international reputation. "He's one of the foremost wood turners in the world. He's not just a craftsman, he's an artist."

`Tests show sea water at our beaches is good quality BATHING water at beaches across the Chichester district is among the best in the country. Both Bracklesham Bay and West Wittering have been classified as excellent in the latest sample results from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. The water off Selsey was found to be good, which means it is considered to be generally good quality. The standards measure bacterial levels within the water which are measured weekly during the bathing season. Councillor Carol Purnell, cabinet member for housing and environmental services at Chichester District Council, said it's good news. "This is excellent news for residents and visitors alike who enjoy the district's renowned beaches. "The criteria set by the department was revised last year to become even more stringent. So, it is fantastic that our beaches have kept up to standard." The seawater is measured weekly in the bathing season. Beaches are awarded a rating based on average levels of bacteria over the past four years.

Plaque records tree's planting as a celebration of the reign of the Queen A FORMAL plaque has been installed to celebrate a Chichester tree's links to the Queen. The plaque records the lime's planting in Florence Park as one of the 60 diamond jubilee trees to mark Her Majesty's time on the throne. As with the planting, Geoff King was present as the area's tree warden, along with Chichester's mayor, Councillor Peter Budge, and children and staff from Portfield Primary Academy. Geoff said: "The lime tree is in good health and will grow to be a tree with great character." As a tree warden, he was invited by The Tree Council to bid for one of the diamond jubilee trees being made available nationally to mark the Queen's anniversary in 2012. He chose Florence Park as the best location.
"Here was a local park which has become a favourite place for the many people who use it and which I could see would encourage further tree planting to add to its attractiveness. "This very happy occasion was the placing of the plaque with the lime tree planted as one of 60 diamond jubilee trees," he said. The onlookers at the ceremony also included Leslie Leaning and Jo Millen, of Florence Park Community Group, Chichester councillors Les Hixson and Tony French, community warden Jon Logan, Judith Ratledge, who chairs Whyke Residents' Association, and Justin Jones, of Chichester District Council's green spaces department. Other diamond jubilee trees were planted in Burgess Hill, Walsall, Fernurst, Derby and Pershore among their locations.

Battle goes on for city courts Continued from page 1 The closure of the Chichester Crown Court is due to take place in March and the Chichester County Court in June next year. The magistrate courts closed earlier this year. The letter requires the Ministry of Justice to give proper consideration to the proposals put forward by Resolution West Sussex in July. These plans would see the existing Chichester Magistrates Court site be converted to a new Chichester Combined Court building upon the closure of the existing Combined Court building next year. The new court would then deal with both the existing Crown and County Court work. Failing a satisfactory response from the Ministry of Justice within a fortnight, a formal application for judicial review will be filed. Mr Cooke said that Resolution West Sussex had taken this step “with a heavy heart” but said that the refusal of the Ministry of Justice to honour previous repeated assurances to consider its proposals for a new Combined Court building left it “with no option but to set in train a legal challenge”. Mr Cooke said: “We hope very much that the Ministry of Justice will now engage in serious and realistic dialogue with us and other groups, to ensure that meaningful local provision of criminal and civil justice is preserved in Chichester, for the sake of the people of the Chichester district.” Mr Cooke added that the proposals put forward by the Ministry of Justice for “alternative local provision” upon
the closure of the existing Combined Court building next year were “woefully inadequate". That includes video link evidence from Chichester Police Station and occasional civil and family hearings from the old Havant Magistrates’ Court. “To leave Chichester, as the county town of West Sussex, with no courtroom facilities is wholly wrong," Mr Cooke added. "West Sussex will be left without a Crown Court, which will mean that witnesses, victims of crime, jurors and others (including police and other agencies) involved in Crown Court trials will have to travel routinely to Lewes for hearings. "Thankfully many people do not have to attend court. "However, sadly, anyone can be a victim of crime, have an accident or face a civil dispute at some point in their lives. "At a time when the Chichester district faces a substantial increase in population, to leave it without any courtroom facilities makes no sense at all.” Her Majesty's Court and Tribunal Service said that the closures will enable them to reinvest in the justice system and make better use of technology. The government has said maintaining underused and dilapidated court buildings costs the taxpayer £500 million a year but some courts sit for less than half the time available. They added that the decision wasn't taken lightly and that work will be distributed primarily to Worthing County Court and Family Court. The government say it is investing more than £700 million to reform and digitise our courts to deliver swifter justice.
Chance to go green welcomed by those in flats around the city POSITIVE responses are already being received about a trial to boost recycling around Chichester. The district council has joined with West Sussex County Council to help to increase recycling in flats and shared houses. A lack of space in those properties can be a barrier to recycling. Teams from the partnership have been issuing free reusable recycling bags to a trial number of properties. Cllr Roger Barrow, the district
council's cabinet member for contract services, said: "We have been so grateful for the positive response we have already received and we are looking forward to reviewing the results. "As most people are aware, councils have been set a target of recycling 50 per cent by 2020. We need to work with our residents on a variety of initiatives, including this one, to make sure we are giving them the support they need."

CHICHESTER District Council is to lose a quarter of its councillors. The independent Local Government Boundary Commission for England has published its final recommendations for new electoral arrangements for Chichester District Council. The publication follows public consultation on its draft proposals earlier this year and draws new boundaries for each council ward across Chichester. The commission’s recommendations propose that Chichester should be represented by 36 district councillors, which is 12 less than the current arrangement. The recommendations also propose that those councillors should represent two three-member wards, 11 twomember wards and eight single-member wards across the district. Professor Colin Mellors, chairman of the Commission, said, “We are extremely grateful to people across Chichester who
took part in the review. The Commission has looked at all the evidence that was put forward during the consultation. “We believe these recommendations deliver electoral fairness for voters as well as reflecting community ties throughout Chichester.” In response to local feedback, the Commission has made amendments to the draft proposals. The parish of Elsted and Treyford will now be in Harting ward rather than Midhurst. The Pound Farm area will be part of the Chichester East ward rather than Chichester South. Similarly, the Velyn Avenue area remains part of the Chichester South ward rather than being included in Chichester Central. Bosham and Donnington ward will now be called Harbour Villages. The proposed new arrangements, which are due to come into force at elections in 2019, must now be implemented by Parliament.

Santa's take to skis SANTAS on skis in a Chichester shop window are bringing festive cheer to passers-by. The seasonal figures enjoying themselves on the piste in the display at the Chestnut Tree House shop have been attracting plenty of attention from shoppers. The delightful display in the North Street outlet is completed by a collection of knitted snowmen. Local resident and Chestnut Tree House supporter Rosie Turner, known as Granny Rosie, has hand knitted and donated the figures to the hospice. Rosie, 86, and well known in the area as the piano player for the Bosham Old Timers, is the mother-in-law of local author and supporter, Kate Mosse. Chestnut Tree House shop manager Helen Smith, pictured right with Granny Rosie, said: "It is wonderful that Granny Rosie knits these delightful characters for us. "Our window displays attract lots of interest from passers by and customers. "They are a delight and something for everyone to enjoy. "We have already received lots of generous donations in appreciation of the fantastic display." Granny Rosie has been knitting in aid of the hospice, located in Poling, for several years. Last year, her handknitted singing choirboys featured in its Chichester shop window. She also knitted the Queen and her corgis for its 'Best of British' themed shop birthday celebrations earlier this year. The shop in North Street sells a variety of clothes and other items, many of
which are ideal as Christmas gifts. It is open late until 8pm every Thursday until Christmas. Chestnut Tree House provides specialist palliative care services to 300 children and young people aged up to 19 in East Sussex, West Sussex and Hampshire with life-shortening conditions. It offers assessment, advice and information for them, specialist short breaks, emergency care, step down from hospital and end of life care.

Solicitors' donations to centre
A GROUP of solicitors are supporting The New Park Centre by making a charitable donation. George Ide LLP has donated £4,030 to Chichester's New Park Community and Arts Association. The New Park centre, home to a thriving arts scene and a neighbourhood services hub, has been part of the city’s fabric for more than a century, first as Chichester’s Central School and latterly, since 1974, as a social and cultural focal point for the local community. The firm chose The New Park Centre as its third golden anniversary charity,
donating £5 from every bill exceeding £150 plus VAT charged during the third quarter of the firm’s 50th year. Ian Oliver, litigation partner at George Ide LLP, presented a cheque for £4,080 to the charity’s chairman and development manager. He said: “It is a great pleasure to support a charity that makes such a valuable contribution to community life in our city. “As a leading West Sussex and South of England law firm we retain a special affinity for our home town, an affinity that reflects our strong local commitment
and our sense of being firmly rooted in the neighbourhood in which our business was founded 50 years ago.” To mark the firm’s golden anniversary celebrations this year, George Ide is making a series of four charitable donations. The team has already contributed to Chichester’s St. Wilfrid’s Hospice and local homeless charity Stonepillow.
Phase 2 of the Selsey and West Wittering Beach Management Plan. Councillor Carol Purnell, cabinet member for housing and environment services, said: "The shingle beaches are an important element of our man-made defences, dissipating wave energy and protecting the existing hard defences from damage. "Without the beach, the walls whether timber or concrete would be at an increased risk of undermining and ultimate failure which could lead to significant flooding or loss of land." The work is due to start on January 3 and must be completed by March 31.
In October, a flood protection scheme worth around £1 million was given the green light. Bunn Leisure Holiday Park in Selsey was given the go-ahead to stabilise a section of beach at Medmerry Beach. The scheme will complete the link between their coastal works completed in 2012 and the Environment Agency’s Medmerry Managed Realignment (MMR) Scheme. The work, which was approved by the council, will include installing a 180m-long timber splash wall as well as the replacement of two dilapidated groynes with 35m-long timber groynes.
To find out more information about the money that has been raised so far, please visit the firm's website at georgeide.co.uk.
Flood defence plan BY RUTH SCAMMELL ruth.scammell@sussexpost.co.uk COUNCILLORS have approved a contract to place 11,000 tonnes of shingle on to a Selsey beach to prevent flooding.

Countdown to Tim's exhibition THE wait is nearly over for Tim Peake fans as the exhibition charting his journey prepares to open. The Novium Museum in Chichester will be launching the event on Thursday exactly a year after the first British European Space Agency astronaut’s debut space mission. The free exhibition, which is backed by Tim and his family, takes visitors on a space journey that follows his adventure from growing up in Chichester to becoming the first British European Space Agency astronaut. The exhibition is being supported by strategic sponsors Air Products, Irwin Mitchell Private Wealth and Vanderbilt Homes. The UK Space Agency has provided funding for the exhibition as part of the 2016 Principia Mission Grant Scheme. Visitors are able to experience Tim’s mission first hand and will start by stepping into the museum’s rocket lift where they can learn all about the Soyuz rocket before blasting off into the museum’s ‘outer space’ level. They can discover what it’s like to
live in space, from eating, sleeping and even exercising in the International Space Station. Visitors can also find out about Tim’s space walk and even get involved in scientific space experiments and other interactive activities. The exhibition then offers the chance to get hands on and try on a space suit, and experience what it is like inside Tim’s sleeping chamber, recreating the experience of living and working in space. Councillor Gillian Keegan, cabinet member for commercial services at Chichester District Council, said: “We are really excited for the exhibition to open in Tim’s home city. “We are all so proud of his phenomenal achievements and can’t wait for visitors to celebrate these with us. “The exhibition will allow people to experience Tim’s mission first hand whilst placing an emphasis on and encouraging young people to get involved with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) subjects.”

Call to scrap onstreet fees for parking in town centre
` Cricket pavilion A NEW pavilion is being planned by Aldwick Cricket Club. THe club's members want to replace their current building in Brooks Lane in Bognor Regis. THey have asked Arun District Council for planning permission for a single storey building with two changing rooms, a clubroom and a bar area. A statement by Ian Guppy, for the club, says: "A previous planning application was granted in 2014 for a refurbishment but this is not cost effective." THe proposed building, at 88.5sq m, is slightly smaller than the existing structure.
f Hugh Coster with one of the parking meters
SCRAP kerbside parking fees to help Bognor Regis, a residents' watchdog has urged. Bognor Regis Civic Society wants the on street charges to be dropped by West Sussex County Council as part of its work to help the town's regeneration. THe county council is responsible for setting the payments on the roads around the town centre while Arun District Council controls the car parks. But the civic society's deputy chairman, Hugh Coster, said it was unfair that Bognor Regis was the only town in the district on which the county council imposed the street parking fees. "THere are no on street fees in Littlehampton or Arundel. So, all we want in Bognor Regis is a level playing field and to be treated the same way as they are. What we are asking for is free parking in those spaces for an hour or two," he said. "When the county council recently proposed to charge for onstreet parking in Arundel, it accepted the argument of residents that the move would damage tourism and trade. "Exactly the same argument applies to Bognor Regis. Other councils and the town traders have exactly the same problem of a lack of cash as the county council yet they are paying towards providing two hours free parking in some car parks. "It is not difficult to do this. All it requires is a few traffic regulation order changes and we would like it done as soon as possible."
THe county council charges 90p for an hour, with a maximum stay of an hour, in roads like Sudley Road and Gloucester Road. It also charges for parking along THe Esplanade and Marine Drive West at various times of the year. Cllr Bob Lanzer, the county council's cabinet member for highways and transport, said: "We provide 317 spaces that are free for two hours waiting out of a 988 parking bays within Bognor Regis. "THey are in roads like Canada Grove, Argyle Road, Steyne Street, West Street and Albert Road. THey are all close to the town centre. "THe reason behind that level of free parking is to provide a regular turnover of shoppers. "If we did allow for additional free parking, which was time limited, it would incur extra enforcement costs." THe county council also charges for parking along the seafront - THe Esplanade and Marine Drive West - between April 1 and September 30. Mr Coster also asked Cllr Lanzer to ensure the county council repainted road markings or removed those no longer needed. "THey look dowdy and ill-kept but repainting them will make them look bright, clean and smart. It will make a massive difference to the town." Cllr Lanzer said he agreed and pledged to take action against unattractive street furniture and road markings.

Michael's Big Love mission BIG Love founder Michael Johnson has taken his church from Bognor Regis to the slums of Africa. Michael is following the success of his ministry among the homeless and dispossessed of the town by seeking to improve the lives of some of the world's poorest people. His Foundations for Love charity will be launched in Kenya early next month. He said: "It is an empowerment programme. I don't want to teach a man just how to fish. I want to teach him how to catch it, clean it, process it, market it, sell it and reap from it. "THere will be four of us going to Nairobi to finalise plans for the new charity like the risk assessment and ensuring all its policies are in place." Bognor Regis resident and former armed robber Michael, 50, said he was excited about the prospect of helping to change the lives of Africans. He spent two weeks in Kenya last month with one of his volunteers. THe trip included a host of visits to and
several stays in some of the world's poorest and most violent slums, as well as going to church. THey included Kibera, the largest urban slum in Africa where the police warned him to leave for his safety. "THe police don't go in there, the Army don't go in there but we didn't go to Kenya as if we were comfortable white middleclass Europeans," he said. "You need to think why a person thinks the way they do, if you want to understand them. You have to walk in their shoes for a while. I could see the need was there as soon as I arrived in Nairobi and I wanted to find the most broken and try to bring them life." THeir hectic visit saw them make several valuable connections. Among them was Bishop Akuna who has agreed to chair the new project. "We preached in five churches in a mixture of ghettoes and in townships on the hills," said Michael. THe speed of the arrangements, which changed as the visit progressed, saw the details of the new project agreed by the
tenth day. THey are being submitted for a charity registration ready for next month's formal launch. Michael held two initial events in Nairobi and Eldoret. A total of 70 people went along in Nairobi and 55 in Eldoret. Of those, 43 signed up to take part in the project. THey included prostitutes, child glue sniffers and street criminals. "Some of the glue sniffers are as young as six," said Michael. "It was heartbreaking to go out at night and see them." A further launch will take place later next year. Michael started Big Love in 2007 after an chaotic and broken early part of his life. A childhood of abandonment and physical and sexual abuse was followed by violence and time sleeping rough. Crime, drugs and alcohol and a prison term for armed robbery came next before he began to help in a centre for homeless people where he found his calling from God.

f Michael Johnson at a Nigerian service f Kibera in Nairobi
MORE web savvy Bognor Regis residents are switching on to a council's website. THe move by Arun District Council to put a wider range of services online has seen them used by an increasing number of people. THe past four months alone have seen Arun receive more than 45,000 planning enquiries and 20,000-plus housing enquiries online. THe council has also made more payment options available online. Cllr Paul Wotherspoon, Arun's cabinet member for community services, said: "While it is important that Arun remains accessible for all, people do now expect there to be an online option available. "By allowing customers to pay their bills online, it means that the council's staff in the contact centre can perform other duties and Arun can become more efficient which helps keep the level of council tax charged as low as possible."

Festive fun with Santa Claus and fake snow
f Festive stories for children
by Kevin Smith kevin.smith@sussexpost.co.uk 01243 908506 ext 11 FATHER Christmas and fake snow combined turned Bognor Regis town centre into a seasonal wonderland. THe final speciality market of the year was a festive extravaganza last weekend. Storytimes with Father Christmas kept young children enthralled indoors and the snow falling on the London Road precinct delighted them outside. THeir parents had plenty to browse through and buy, with up to 11 stalls providing a specialist range of continental hot food, gifts, crafts and garden stalls lining the centre of the precinct. Town centre manager Toyubur Rahman said he was pleased with the market's success. "I've had lots of positive comments from the businesses in the town. Specsavers, Wilkinsons and Boots told me on Saturday their takings were above target. Superdrug matched their target. "Costa Coffee and, especially Greggs, had massive queues outside as well. "We had the most stalls on Saturday and it was a shame that two of the holders had to leave before Sunday for family reasons. But those that are left have done well. "THis is the third Christmas market I've held and it will be back again next year. I've just finalised the dates for next year's markets with the operator and we will be keeping mostly to them for the three markets in 2017." THis year's Christmas market followed the
f Storytime with Father Christmas Dickensian theme launch in 2015 and the weather-affected occasion last year when strong winds played havoc with the stalls. Cold, bright and sunny conditions proved more favourable this year and continued throughout the six days of the market. Stall-holder Hazel Worrall, from Sheffield, the owner of Hazel's German Barbecue, said: "It's the first time we have been here and we would like to come back again. "It's been a bit quiet today (Sunday), though there have been a lot of people here. But Saturday was very busy. "To have Father Christmas wandering around, and the fake snow, was really lovely. THe children really liked that and seeing Santa Claus was brilliant. "I wish we could have had that every day. It would have made a difference during the week.
THe people here, though, are nice and friendly. We've had a lot of them come back day after day. It's been nice." One young visitor to the market won a £20 Boots voucher. Alice Robbins was selected to open the Christmas window in the shop after a shop window competition run by Mr Rahman and Bognor Regis Town Council. Sunday also saw an elf amble through the town centre from Paul Inskip Photography in Queensway. Children dressed as elves collected parcels for the town's Foodbank to give out to deserving residents. Musical accompaniment was provided at the weekend by university students Danielle THomas, 25, and Simon Arthurs, 22. Saturday also saw them join with the RAFA Choir, while the Salvation Army band also played carols.

THIS Christmas season the Regis Centre have produced a wonderful festive programme filled with music, dance, theatre and, of course, pantomime such as Beauty and the Beast, pictured left. Spillers Pantomime Productions invite us all to journey with alongside Belle as she embarks on a magical adventure, full of all the wonderful costumes, music and comedy you'd expect from a show like this! Although there is much to choose from at the Regis Centre throughout December it is worth considering what they are showing in up-coming months. Between January and May next year the Regis Centre is offering audiences a packed and varied spring programme. From theatre and live music to family events, famous faces, comedy and fundraisers – they’ve got a little something for everyone. Stand out events include an evening with renowned historian David Starkey on February 14 and entertainment legend Des O’Connor on February18. David Starkey will be giving a fascinating lecture on the always-popular subject of Henry VIII. Even those with little interest in history will surely become hooked by David's experienced stage-presence and encyclopedic knowledge. Audiences are then invited to enjoy an evening with the incomparable Des in his brand-new show, celebrating the stage and screen career of this showbusiness legend. National treasure Richard Digance and the supremely talented Barron Knights will also be making an appearance in April, and acclaimed tenor Daniel Koek, recent star of London’s Les Miserables will be sharing his West End Story on the stage. For music lovers, there is everything from 70s
glam rock, wonderful nostalgia, top class tributes including Michael Jackson, Johnny Cash, and Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons - plus Big Band music and performances from local orchestras. Fans of musical theatre will be treated to a wide range of shows such as modern musicals like Legally Blonde and the Dolly Parton smash-hit 9 to 5 The Musical, as well as classics like The King and I and Orpheus in the Underworld. THere will also be unknown gems like City of Angels, new British hits like Betty Blue Eyes and a wonderful family musical version of Alice in Wonderland. THe theatre sees the welcome return of several community groups this spring, as well as some new groups to the venue. So they hope you will join them to welcome Chichester College, FMS, the Samantha Jane Performing Arts, the University of Chichester, the Southdowns Concert Band, Dance House, Bersted Arts, Littlehampton Concert Band and Rainbow Productions to their stage. Whatever the reason for your visit, the Regis Centre look forward to welcoming you this spring.

Christmas in town 'better than big cities' TOWN centre trader Jharmel Singh has praised Bognor Regis for its Christmas celebrations. Jharmel said the effort given to the past two weekends in the town put much bigger centres to shame. "THe town council and the town centre manager, Toyubur Rahman, should be proud of what they have done. "THeir work compares favourably with what happens in centres which are bigger," he said. "I was busy yesterday (Saturday) when the Christmas market was on with a lot more people than I would normally see - and quite busy today, but I was mobbed when the Christmas lights switch on took place the previous Saturday. "I've been here five months and it's the busiest day I've had. It wasn't just the regular people who were here. THey were coming from elsewhere. "THere was a really nice atmosphere. People were jolly. THey were taking photos of the icicle stiltwalkers and putting them on social media and they probably attracted other people. "I can't fault the town council and Toyubur for trying to improve the town." Jharmel's business, JSL Fashion, is
based at Southampton, and has a semipermanent spot on the vacant site between Burtons and Greggs on the London Road precinct. He has to put up and take down his structure every day but is in town for the next two years. Last week's Christmas market saw Father Christmas host story times in Bright House, Greggs, Kids Stuff Toys, Claire's and Hays Travel. Among those who enjoyed the session in Claire's was Robbie Batten-Johnson, aged two. His mum, Sophie Johnson, 22, of Bognor Regis, also took along nine-month-old Romeo BattenJohnson. She said: "THis is an amazing event and really good for the community. I moved down here from Lewisham in South London, after graduating from the University of Chichester in English and history, a few months ago and they didn't do anything like this here. "It's fabulous to have events like this. THere is so much to do in this town, like Rox, but it's always good to have more."

A PARTIALLY sighted Bognor Regis woman has one of the satisfied users of a successful Talking Books service. Shirley Buck has enjoyed the tomes made available by the RNIB for those with vision difficulties. THe service has attracted 11,000 new users for a 30 per cent increase in members since the charity made it free last November. Shirley, 78, who was diagnosed with muscular degeneration in 2004, contacted the RNIB about Talking Books as her mother had used the service after she was diagnosed with glaucoma. "RNIB's Talking Books service has been able to replace one of most enjoyable hobbies - reading books," said Shirley. "THere is such a wide choice of books and the readers are excellent. "Now I can no longer read books, Talking Books has given me back my joy of reading." More than 25,000 Talking Books are available in formats such as USB, CD and MP3 download. Added to giant print and Braille books, its accessible library numbers 60,000 items as the largest of its kind in Europe. Anyone who has difficulty reading standard print books can join.

Students are success in three languages f Lee, centre, with Steve Catt, left, and NHBC chief executive Mike Quinton
Lee is a winner for building work SITE manager Lee White has been named one of Britain's best builders for his work in North Bersted. Lee won a Seal of Excellence in the second round of this year's NHBS Pride in the Job Awards. Known as the 'Oscars of the house building industry', winning an award is an exceptional achievement. Lee was selected from more than 16,000 UK site managers and was recognised at a Brighton ceremony for his work at Bersted Park for Berkeley Homes. Steve Catt, the NHBC's regional director, congratulated Lee on his win. He said: "Pride in the Job is now firmly established as a significant

The Community Programme Fundraising Exhibition opens at Pallant House Gallery on 29 November in the Studio.

The Community Programme provides opportunities for local people with disabilities, health issues and those who are isolated to follow their art interests and be part of the general life of the Gallery. The focus is on art, not people’s disability or other support needs, and for those involved it can be an important life changing opportunity. The 2015 fundraising exhibition sold 34 works of art ranging from paintings to prints, raising a total of £1,940. Once again, the Gallery is offering members of the public the opportunity to purchase an original piece of art and, at the same time, support the Gallery’s award-winning Community Programme.

artists with chronic illness or recurring bouts of poor mental health are able to continue their Community Programme membership without worrying they will lose their place.

Wines to take your breath away Martin Lury Our very own bon vivant gets to grips with all the best buys
FRIDAY November 25th at Fontwell Racecourse was the spacious venue for a wine-tasting extravaganza where Gusto Wines served up a dégustation par excellence! I will subsequently select a small selection of the vast array of wines on offer and, although there was an abundance of French wines to taste, I decided to cast my net further afield to Europe and beyond (with one or two notable exceptions). Who then, pray, are Gusto Wines? THey are in fact a small family-run independent wine merchant based in Ford and fronted by Simon and Clare Wallace who were recently awarded the prestigious Overall Business of the Year 2016 at the Arun Business Awards, and pride themselves on a very personal and attentive service . Simon Wallace, pictured above right, hosted table six and I first elected to sample a 2014 Topuku New Zealand Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc and would ascribe to it qualities of an archetypal Sauvignon Blanc (priced at £9.69) being both crisp and fresh with lychee, citrus and gooseberry flavours.
English wines turn out to be a true revelation
On Simon's recommendation I next sampled a Mitchell Clare Valley 2014 Watervale Riesling from Down Under. THis wine took my breath away and resembled a French wine in its composition ably crafted and fermented spontaneously to complete dryness with ambient yeasts muting some of the riesling's aromatic high notes, whilst leaving the intense ,citrusy varietal flavour intact. A crisp, bone dry finish complemented the concentrated rounded flavours and priced at £13.95 this wine is a veritable taste sensation! Two red wines to savour then beckoned and for chocolate lovers the distinctively bottled Negroamaro Alfredo Rocca Salento priced at £11.99 would tantalise with its deep and dark red colour sporting a complex bouquet of ripe fruits and hints of spice. Produced in Salento, a few
kilometres from the Ionic Coast, the wine exudes a velvety roundness with an oaky note-well worth a try! Finally acquiescing to the lure of French vinification I happened upon a 2013 Vidal Fleury Saint-Joseph from the Rhône Valley which fully justified its £21.99 valuation, being delightfully smooth with vanilla and spice to the fore and, in my view, a superbly crafted Rhône wine whose taste lingers seductively and with its peppery overtones is a wine to savour! For high spenders the Champagne Gosset Grande Réserve at a princely sum of £41.99 is everything a good Champagne should be and the Frapin VSO Cognac divine (£44.99)! Gusto Wines is well worth a visit and you will receive great attention at Ford Lane Business Park if you so choose!
Readers' Readers' Recipes Recipes
MOST definitely not a true wine-expert like the wonderful Mr Lury, I was at least certain of my personal favourites at the Gusto Wines tasting night. In a surprise turn, these came in the form of a collection of English wines made locally at the Highdown Vineyard on Littlehampton Road. Owner Aly Englefield was at the event to offer up a delicious choice of whites, reds and rosés. First I sampled the Southdown White which is regarded by Aly as their most accessible of wines. It had a fresh, fruity flavour created by the blend of different grapes. Aly described it as "A good representation of English wine." THe other Highdown whites provided plenty of diversity for the palate. THe Mother's Share Chardonnay burst onto my taste buds with a very sharp yet lean quality. However, it was the dry Bacchus that truly caught my attention with its delightfully English elderflower and
gooseberry hues, coupled with a fresh acidity to finish. THe Chalk Ridge Red also did a lot to impress. Highly distinguishable from the other foreign imports available that evening, it provided a much softer flavour, perhaps more appropriate for those usually not so enamoured by red wine. Overall though my choice wine for the evening was, even more surprisingly, a rosé. I relished every drop of the Millers Reserve Rosé that was fruity yet not overly sweet, and brisk yet not acidic. Its strawberry aromas transported me for a moment back to a summer's afternoon, something most welcome on a November night. Highdown Vineyard are proud to be changing popular opinion on English wines. But Aly was fervent that their wines be enjoyed for their taste and not because of their locality. She said: "I want people to buy it because it's good, not just because it's local." Wines from Highdown can be purchased at www.gustowines.co.uk Fiona Callingham

YUMMY
CHOCOLATE LOG INGREDIENTS • 85g golden caster sugar • 85g plain flour (less 2 tbsp) • 2 tbsp cocoa powder • ½ tsp baking powder
FOR THE FILLING & ICING • 50g butter • 140g dark chocolate, broken into squares • 1 tbsp golden syrup • 284ml pot double cream • 200g icing sugar, sifted • 2-3 extra-strong mint • icing sugar and holly sprigs to decorate - ensure you remove the berries before serving
METHOD 1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Grease and line a 23 x 32cm Swiss roll tin with baking parchment. Beat the eggs and sugar together with an electric whisk for about 8 mins until thick and creamy. 2. Mix the flour, cocoa and baking powder together, then sift onto the egg mixture. Fold in very carefully, then pour into the tin. Now tip the tin from side to side to spread the mixture into the corners. Bake for 10 mins. 3. Lay a sheet of baking parchment on the work surface. When the cake is ready, tip it onto the parchment, peel off the lining paper, then roll the cake up from its longest edge with the paper inside. Leave to cool. 4. To make the icing, melt the butter and chocolate together in a bowl over a pan of hot water. Take from the heat and stir in the syrup and 5 tbsp cream. Beat in the icing sugar until smooth. Whisk the remaining cream until it holds its shape. Unravel the cake, spread the cream over the top, scatter over the
crushed mints, if using, then carefully roll up again into a log. 5. Cut a thick diagonal slice from one end of the log. Lift the log on to a plate, then arrange the slice on the side with the diagonal cut against the cake to make a branch. 6. Spread the icing over the log and branch (don’t cover the ends), then use a fork to mark the icing to give the effect of tree bark. Scatter with unsifted icing sugar to resemble snow, and decorate with holly.

Anti ageing treatments at The Beauty Rooms There are so many more alternatives now to surgery or nasty medications After suffering with bad skin in my teens, and having tried all sorts of products that promised to work, but unfortunately never did, I decided that I had nothing to lose and booked myself in for my first ever facial. I was so impressed and pleased with the results that it ignited a spark of passion in me to learn and study the science behind skin and skin care. So 30 years ago I studied and trained to be an aesthetician/beauty therapist and I haven't looked back since. It's a very exciting time in skin care right now. Whether people want to slow down the ageing process or deal with something more debilitating like Acne or Rosacea. There are so many more alternatives now to surgery or nasty medications that have terrible side effects. At The Beauty Rooms Chichester where I work as an aesthetician/beauty therapist we only use a 100% organic natural product line called Pevonia, and I have been fortunate enough to have been trained in the science behind the range by Dr Jurist who is their global educator. Consequently I have gained a high level of skill and knowledge in an ever evolving market. Also last year I trained under the close supervision of Andrew Hansford who trains doctors/aestheticians all over the the country using the latest technology and anti ageing treatments.
One of those treatments we now specialise in at The Beauty Rooms is IPL-Intense Pulse Light, which works on an array of conditions from hair reduction to skin rejuvenation. Light therapy reverses sun damage to the skin. It penetrates the skins surface targeting melanin, blood supply and collagen production, thus drastically reducing skin imperfections such as thread veins. We are also proud to be able to offer our clients the award winning and Industry's number one choice in skin needling treatment The Dermapen. Which I have been using for over a year now and am continually impressed with the incredible results I have seen. It aims to not only tighten, but also lift and rejuvenate the skin. Used to treat fine lines, wrinkles, surgical, acne and trauma scars, stretch marks and pigmentation. Skin and anti ageing has always been my passion and I get a great deal of satisfaction helping men and women feel better about themselves and how they look because after all if we look good we feel good.

Best hangover tips. 'Tis the season! WE’VE all done it. You know what I am talking about... Lying in bed the next morning after a great night out consisting of dancing on the tables, possibly snogging a work colleague that you have fancied for the entire year, ordering shots with everyone at the bar because somehow, at that point in the evening it seemed like a really good idea. Your head is pounding, your throat is dry, the nausea is awful (you feel lucky if you haven’t been sick yet) and there is absolutely no way you can even entertain opening the curtain and letting even a millimetre of light in as it feels like it could burn a hole in your eyes. Yes, it is the season...the season to party! Works parties, friend’s parties, family gatherings! It goes on and on in the month of December. But why do some of us never learn that hangovers can be one of the worst feelings on the planet? THere are a few little tricks to drinking that could just help you reduce that ‘next day’ sickness and those involve learning which drinks are less likely to cause such awful hangovers. Of course, not drinking at all would be the best option, but, as that’s unlikely to happen with the majority, its best to know your facts! THese are the rules to play by: Alcoholic beverages that are light in colour, such as gin, light rum, vodka or white wine leave you with less of a hangover, especially if you only stick to one type of alcohol all evening. Do not mix your drinks - it’s an age-old rule! If you start blending dark liquors, such as mixing red wine with brandy,
you'll be ingesting different varieties of congeners from both, setting yourself up for a worse hangover than if you'd stuck to only one type of spirit. Some congener-laden spirits to avoid in excess are, brandy, red wine, bourbon, dark rum and whiskey. In case you don’t know, congeners are a byproduct of some types of fermentation. Sometimes they're impurities in spirits, and other times they're trace elements added to stabilise or flavour them. THese substances vary in different types of alcoholic beverages, but when they get into your system they cause or heighten some of the symptoms associated with hangovers. Alcohol is a diuretic, which makes your body work hard to conserve water after the binging is over. THis is what results in headaches and nausea. Along with all that liquid loss, you also lose important trace chemicals like magnesium and potassium, which will make you feel tired and lethargic. THe best hangover cure is not a greasy fry up followed by copious amounts of coffee, as that will dehydrate you further! Initially, what you need is hydration, toxin removal and anti-oxidants in abundance to give you your natural energy back so you don’t crash and burn later in the day. If you haven’t already got one, get yourself a Nutri-bullet, or a similar type blender. THrow in some alkalizing, toxin removing and anti-oxidant making remedies and sip through a straw. Admittedly a little effort is needed in order to achieve this, but it is worth it. You are worth it! First of all get yourself some coconut water. It contains anti-oxidants and
electrolytes, specifically potassium. Anti-oxidants and electrolytes are key components of any hangover cure, as is potassium for hydration. THen throw in any number of the following natural, immune boosting, hydrating and antioxidant ingredients such as pineapple, celery, parsley, ginger, lemon, limes, berries and peppermint. You can use chlorella (the super food powder) in your smoothie to help remove some of the toxins and pop some milk thistle drops in as an added measure. Milk thistle stimulates the regeneration of cells damaged by alcohol. Charcoal tablets are also an amazing remedy to have on stand by. If you take
them when you get home rather than waiting until the next morning, its even better as they absorb toxins and help remove out of the body. THen you can get on with your Christmas preparations without feeling so bad, enjoy! Note: My 5 day detox package is available for anyone that wants a quick cleanse before Christmas. 4 x juices per day for 5 days. Soups are now available for your evening meals too.

Community News & Views My Sisters' House WELCOME to our latest column provided by My Sisters’ House CIC Arun & Chichester Women’s Centre. THese columns will draw on, and briefly question, relevant issues in the Post circulation area and shows existing community provision that can help. It is not a direct promotion of the centre's services but raises issues and increases access to what is available.
MARKET organisers Chris Warden and Michele Redford are nearing £1,000 fundraising for charity. THey have raised £938.17 from the tombola they hold during each of the Crafty Pint Markets in the function room of THe Waverley pub in Bognor Regis. THeir past two markets of 2016 brought in £100 which will be used for Granddad's Community Wrap which was held yesterday at THe Laburnum Centre. Chris and Michele are pictured above presenting the GREAT news for anyone being stalked this week – male, female, LGBT or professionals, such as doctors, who are targeted by patients. Stalking and harassment includes behaviour that happens two or more times, directed at or towards you by another person, which causes you to feel alarmed or distressed or to fear that violence might be used against you. What makes the problem particularly hard to cope with is that it can go on for a long period of time, making you feel constantly anxious and afraid. Sometimes the problem can build up slowly and it can take a while for you to realise that you are caught up in an ongoing campaign of abuse. Stalkers will be hit with court orders from the moment their victims raise the alarm under new plans. Police are to get new powers to apply for measures to stop people stalking strangers or acquaintances before it spirals out of control. Suspected stalkers could be ordered to stay away from their targets or have their internet restricted even if they have not yet been arrested or charged. Other conditions could see stalkers required to attend a rehabilitation programme or seek treatment for mental health issues. Breaching the orders will be a criminal offence with a maximum sentence of five years in jail. THe Stalking Protection Orders aim to protect victims while investigators gather evidence for potential prosecution. THe new crackdown is aimed particularly at "stranger stalking" before it escalates. It builds on Domestic Violent Protection Orders, which were rolled out in 2014, to clamp down on abusive partners and spouses. Statistics suggest one in five women and one in 10 men will be affected by stalking in their lifetime. THere were 4168 stalking offences recorded in the last year, up by 32 per cent on the previous year. Locally, we have given out 12 ‘stalking packs’ in the last six months. Of course, for many, stalking is often part of the domestic abuse they suffered and, when they have left or ended the relationship, the partner carries on the abuse in the form or stalking or harassment. If it is happening to you, it is important that you report it. Getting help early will assist to protect you - www. stalkinghelpline.org or 0808 802 0300 have a list of local organisations, like ours, that can help you.
DOG owners and their pets enjoyed Bognor Regis and District Dog Training Club's Christmas party, pictured above. A large number of members had fun with a selection of 'doggy games' at Felpham Memorial Village Hall. Press officer Phil Lewis said: "THe club also made a presentation of £1,400 to WADAR which was raised at its annual companion dog show held in June. "THe cheque was presented
cheque to Danny Dawes. THe final market of the year attracted 25 stalls with a cross selection of goods. Chris said: "THis market has been running for twoand-a-half years and is very well received by the local population and tourists. "As with all the markets, we hold a tombola and donate the proceeds to a different charity or local cause." Previous causes backed have included the MS Society, Bognor Pier Trust, Bognor Regis Seafront Lights and Bognor Regis Museum.
by the club's chairman, Pauline Burtenshaw, secretary Hilary Sykes and treasurer Maureen Fitzgibbons to Keith Walder, a trustee of the charity." THe ever-popular fancy dress competition was won by Eddie, owned by Christine Saunders, and who was dressed as Father Christmas. THe club is on its Christmas break but its classes resume on January 5 and 6 at the hall. WADAR is an animal rescue which cares and protects a wide range of animals.
A DISPLAY of prints and multiples by the contemporary Scottish artist and poet Ian Hamilton Finlay (1925-2006) will go on display at Pallant House Gallery this autumn. THe artist, best known for his celebrated garden at Little Sparta near Edinburgh, created work which engaged with themes drawn from classical writers such as Virgil and connects the display with the Gallery’s major autumn exhibition, The Mythic Method: Classicism in British Art 1920-1950. Finlay’s practice was unusual in that it encompassed a variety of different genres and media. He expressed poetry, philosophy, history, gardening and landscape design in material forms such as cards, books, prints, stone inscriptions, wood sculptures and even room installations and garden environments. His famous work at Little Sparta, referencing classical poetry and philosophy through garden sculptures and carvings, explores the contrast between nature and culture, wild gardens and the act of gardening. Originating from his poetic background, Finlay’s creative relationship with language is the element that ties all his works together. Finlay’s concern with the power of language is seen in the words and phrases, playfully invented or borrowed, that are inscribed onto real objects in his work. THe sometimes enigmatic combination of these words and objects act as suggestive and, at times, witty metaphors that direct the viewer’s thinking to wider political themes and comments on society. THe exhibition includes Finlay’s important sculptural installation Four Blades (1987), four pieces of slate carved to look like guillotine blades inscribed with quotes from notable figures of the French Revolution and himself, revealing Finlay’s fascination with the aesthetics, philosophy and politics of neoclassical thought.
Using classical images as models for portraying modern society, Finlay’s pieces comment on the possibilities of revolution, freedom and equality. He even envisages his recurrent garden theme as a levelling method for society and equates the gardener with death, a comment on how death eventually cuts short everyone’s life. A group of his prints shown in this exhibition were made in collaboration with other artists and published by the Wild Hawthorn Press, an organisation that Finlay founded in 1964 with Jessie McGuffie Sheeler. THe juxtaposition between the antique and the modern is a theme carried throughout the Gallery’s autumn exhibition programme, especially in the major exhibition The Mythic Method: Classicism in British Art 1920-1950, which explores how Modern British artists drew on classical myth and ideals in a ‘return to order’ following the First World War. Similarly, an ambitious installation by the Argentinian-born artist Pablo Bronstein provides the latest contemporary installation in the Gallery’s 18th century townhouse. Bronstein has created a series of panoramic wallpapers featuring heavily decorated, historic architectural landscapes. Ian Hamilton Finlay: Neoclassicism and Revolution will take place until February 19, 2017, and will be exhibited in Room 17. On February 9, 2017, there will be a talk on ‘Ian Hamilton Finlay and Little Sparta’ by Prof. Stephen Bann.

History of Pallant House goes back a long way By Lorna Still, volunteer at The Novium Museum IT is hard to imagine that the Pallant was once an industrial area full of tanneries and breweries. But when Henry Peckham and his wife had Pallant House built there in 1712/13, on the site of an old malthouse, it would have looked shockingly different from anything else around it. Indeed, it strongly influenced later building in the city. Henry Peckham was born in 1683. His father died in debt when Henry was 16. But by the time he was 27 he had become a wine merchant, paid off these debts and married Elizabeth Albery, a rich widow aged over 40. Together they decided to build a grand house in Chichester using ‘a New Modell
Drawne at London’. They employed a local master mason, Henry Smart, to copy the design of a London house they liked, adapting it to their wishes and requirements. The English Baroque style reflected Henry’s strong Tory leanings as it was the style favoured by that party, which was briefly in power from 1710 to 1714. By the gate are two stone ostriches as these were the Peckham family crest. However, they do not really look like ostriches, and the house was nicknamed ‘Dodo House’ (it was not officially known as Pallant House until 1913). Henry was granted permission to remove the leatherworkers’ wooden market cross in the centre of the Pallant to make room for his

coach. It was at a time when there were very few coaches in the city. He provided ‘a convenient shedd’ in St Martin’s Lane to replace it as a market place, which would also reduce the noise and smells outside his house. Elizabeth had a large input in the design of the house. She even had the kitchen rebuilt when she realised that she did not like her original choice. However, the marriage failed and Elizabeth left both house and husband by 1720. She took Henry to court for failing to keep to the pre-marital contract concerning her allowance and the use of her money, though she readily acknowledged that she had willingly spent money on the house. The case lasted four years, much of the debate concerning the amount spent on Pallant House.
Elizabeth finally received about half of her remaining entitlement, Henry being unable to supply the rest. Henry lived in the house until at least 1740, but it was not mentioned in his will when he died in 1764, aged 80. The house continued to be used as a domestic dwelling until 1919 when it was then officially purchased by the Rural District Council. Many of the internal fixtures and fittings were stripped out. The house was used as council offices for nearly 60 years. An improvement in the fortunes of Pallant House occurred when a growing movement within Chichester to restore and re-open the house coincided with Dean Walter Hussey’s wish to bequeath his private art collection to the city. You can read more about this next week. Pictures are provided by Pallant House Gallery.

Kia's new CEE’D GTs mix power and looks Twin models feature comfort and elegance KIA’S GT twins, the three-door pro_cee’d GT and five-door cee’d GT combine sparkling performance with premiumclass sporty looks. BOTH are powered by a turbocharged version of the Gamma 1.6-litre directinjection petrol engine, which satisfies EU6 emissions standards. Driving through a six-speed manual gearbox with an ideal spread of ratios, it delivers a scintillating, off-the-line performance, with 0-60mph achievable in 7.3 seconds - on the way to a top speed of 143mph. At the same time the pro_cee’d GT and cee’d GT are efficient everyday cars, with the emphasis on usability and civility in
all conditions, rather than raw track-day performance. Sports-tuned suspension, steering and powerful all-disc brakes, now uprated from 16 inches to 17 inches at the front, ensure they are more than capable of handling the impressive power and torque outputs of 201bhp and 265Nm. Both feature stylish new 18-inch alloy wheels shod with 225/40ZR18 Michelin Sport tyres. THe increased size of the front brake discs shortens the 62-0mph stopping distance from 36.4 metres to 35.2 metres. THe new GT models have an electronic sound generator which delivers an even more distinctive and exciting engine note into the cabin. When activated via a ‘GT’ button on the

steering wheel, the traditional analogue speedometer changes to a digital numerical display and shows torque and turbo gauges. A new aluminium engine start/stop button is part of the Smart Entry System, complementing the new chrome-tipped window switches and air-vent surrounds which lend the interior an even classier appearance. Equipment upgrades include the addition of an MP3-compatible DAB radio as part of the six-speaker audio system. THere are now illuminated USB and AUX ports, while the CD player has been ommitted due to the preference among buyers for digital music streaming. THe GT models also have a new 7-inch satellite navigation screen with Kia Connected Services featuring TomTom® Connected services. THis uprated system includes European mapping and a Traffic Messaging Channel, and permits UK postcode entries. It allows drivers to choose the fastest, shortest or most fuel-efficient route to their destination and supports 15 languages. TomTom® functionality is another first for Kia, and supplies additional driving information such as traffic updates, speed camera locations and weather reports. THe 7-inch screen is also linked to a colour reversing camera. As one of the flagship models of the cee’d and pro_cee’d ranges, the GT models are
offered in an extremely high specification. THeir exteriors benefit from a number of unique styling touches, including the front bumper designs, side sill mouldings, dual exhausts and 18-inch alloy wheels with red brake calipers and 225/40ZR Michelin Sport tyres. On the inside the Recaro seats are finished in leather and suede, with power lumbar adjustment. Red stitching is applied to the D-shaped leather steering wheel with perforated grips and the gear knob, and there is black headlining and high-gloss black trim garnish.

Chi get that winning feeling again - PostSport but warned they must keep going CHICHESTER will be looking to make it backto-back victories for the first time this season when they tackle fellow strugglers Colchester tomorrow. (2pm) THe Blues showed their true colours last week, registering a convincing 27-6 bonus point win away at Guildford. Hopes are high that Rob Lawrence's men can put in a repeat performance at Oaklands Park tomorrow when they welcome the Essex side. A win would put clear daylight between third-bottom Chi and Colchester, who sit directly below them in the National League 3 London table. Roger Gould, the club's press officer, said: "Blues are now set on their clear mission to climb away from the relegation threat. "THe return from injury of inspirational Chris Johnson helped the pack to be a strong welded unit in both the tight and loose. "THe quick service and long touch kicks from Henry Anscombe earned territory and apart from the first ten minutes and the last five, the mid-table Surrey team were outplayed." Guildford had won their last two matches and must have fancied their chances in fine
IN the run up to Christmas, the 'Sandy Carter Memorial' Mixed Pairs knockout took place at the Newtown Social Club. 26 pairs turned up to compete, but last years champions were a no-show. Could last years runners-up, and champions from the 2016 summer league, Paula Duckett & Dave Owens, take the title? Or could the champions from two years ago, Janet Grinstead & Gary Blackwood, regain their title? THe first round saw the three-time finalists Debbie & Ashley Clements make it through, but they lost out in the second round. Duckett & Owens also went out in the second round, beaten by Grinstead & Blackwood. THe first semi-final saw Tracey Reeves & Ben Todd take on Michelle Skeites & Adam Hall. A close first leg saw Hall miss double 12 for a ton plus out-shot, and Skeites hit the double 6 to take the leg. THe second leg saw Reeves hit 95, but Skeites & Hall were more consistent, and Skeites took out 39 in two darts to take the place in the final.
weather on a dry pitch. But it was Chi who made the breakthrough with the returning Johnson powering over from five yards out. THe home side replied with a penalty shortly after. But it was the Blues again who had the cutting edge when Johnson crossed for his second just before half-time. THe break came and Chi were 10-6 up. Into the second period, and the visitor's pack continued where they left off. A lineout led to a scrum and a big surge. THe back row drove on and the whole pack shoved as a unit for lock Alex Grace to press down under the posts. It was converted by Taff Davies, who followed it up with a further penalty. THe Blues sealed the bonus point win when a further five metre drive maul saw Grace fall short, but Tom Belcher followed it up to touch down. THe final whistle came and coach Rob Lawrence looked delighted with the five point win, his side's first since the start of October. THe hope for all at Oaklands Park is the next victory will not take so long.
W
THe second semi-final saw Rachel Hall & Adam Judd against former champions Janet Grinstead & Gary Blackwood. Blackwood started with a 140, while Judd followed with 135. THe end of the first leg saw Grinstead hit treble 17 to bust their out-shot, but after Blackwood halved the score on his throw, Grinstead only needed 1 dart to take the leg.

Sofija strikes gold in Olympic venue TALENTED trampolinist Sofija Kalnicenko was bouncing with joy after claiming gold in the national league finals. THe youngster was ranked number one in the 11/12-year-olds category going into the competition at London's Olympic Park. On the big stage she beat performances from 76 others to take top spot, much to the delight of everyone at the Dragonflyers club where she trains. Linda O'Leary, coach of the Bognor-based club, said: "Kalnicenko performed her high difficulty routines of double and twisting somersaults with courage, determination, power and accuracy to hold onto her top place ranking and secure first place under pressure." THe victory rounded off a successful season for the talented youngster, which includes two international finals and also making the last eight of the national development finals both as an individual and as part of the southern region team. Kalnichenko's Olympic performance was
backed up by team mates Libby Morton , Anya Johnston and Izzy Hauxwell. THe girls all increased their difficulty tariff from qualifying by adding double somersaults. Morton (9/10yrs), who was ranked 13th, moved up four places to take 9th place. Johnston (15/16yrs) finished tenth while Hauxwell placed a credible 19th. Linda said: "It was a fantastic end to the club's season." THe Dragon Flyers Trampoline Club has been running for just over ten years and has more than 50 members in the Portsmouth and Chichester/Bognor area. Training takes place Monday to THursday at THe Regis School in Westloats Lane. Most of the members are aged between five and 19 although there is a growing number of adults taking up the sport. As a not-for-profit group much of the club relies on the support of volunteers. If you are interested in trampolining, call Linda on 01243 825015 or visit www.dragonflyers-club.co.uk.

THe second leg saw Grinstead hit 108 & Blackwood hit 128. Once again Grinstead bust their out-shot but this time Blackwood hit the winning double to get to the final. THe final saw Blackwood win the bullseye, and again start with a 140. Later in the leg Hall scored a ton, but that still left them trailing. After 26 darts between them, Blackwood hit 52 in two darts to take the first leg. THe second leg saw Blackwood start with a ton and late follow that with 102, but Skeites hit 85 & 125, while Hall hit a ton, taking them in to the lead. One dart was all that was needed for Hall to take the second leg in a total of 25 darts. Hall then proceeded to start the last leg with a ton and 81, giving them the early lead. Blackwood followed with 85 & 100, but they were still behind. Hall tried first for the double, but missed, as did Skeites. THis gave Grinstead a chance, but she could only leave double top. From here both teams started missing, either busting their scores or leaving odd numbers. Skeites & Hall ended up on double 1, while Blackwood had left 3 for Grinstead. Grinstead stepped up, with the second dart hit single 1, and then followed it with the double, to take the leg and the title of the 'Sandy Carter Memorial' Mixed Pairs Champions 2016/17.

f Tone Zone runners enjoy a day in the sun
Tone Zone lap up winter sun FIFTEEN Tone Zone Runners lapped up the sunshine in southern Spain to take part in the Benidorm Half Marathon. First to finish for the club was Simon Gill in 1.17, although he was disappointed with that time as he slowed in the second half of the race. THe majority of the runners finished within 12 minutes of each other but one runner who was just pleased to finish was Glenn Penfold. With only six miles run in the last eight months he decided to give the race a try. THe first eight miles went well but then the lack of running took its toll but he struggled on to complete the run in just under two hours. Afterwards he said that the last four miles were the toughest of his life but was over the moon to have completed the half marathon. Elsewhere and at the Hayling Island 10 mile, Jessica THomson and Nathan Bilham continued their great recent form, both achieving personal bests of 1.15.47 and 1.25.33
respectively. THere were also good efforts from Robert Little (1.31.14), Stuart THomson (1.34.19), Paul Stevenson (1.34.22), David Sinclair (1.35.02), and Sarah Spurr (1.48.36). Joan Woolley ran in the Martello Marathon where she came first in her age group in 5.19.53. THen last month Paul Coe embarked on an amazing challenge to run 3 marathons in consecutive days - completing all three in around 4 hours 20 minutes. To round off a remarkable effort, Paul then took part in THe Mouth to Mouth Ultra marathon, which is a 27.5 mile run from the River Adur in Shoreham to the Arun in Littlehampton. He completed it to make it four marathons in eight days and his 41st in total. A special mention should also be made to Tony Holcombe, who took part in the six-hour multi lap event known as the Winter Festive Frolic in Staunton Country Park..
PAGHAM chairman Tony Shea is on the look out for additions to his squad, despite the Lions returning to form in a battling draw with runaway leaders Shoreham. THe Nyetimber Lane side have struggled in recent weeks with two successive losses seeing them fall to third in the SCFL Premier. But a spirited show in front of a bumper crowd saw the Lions hold the Musselmen to a 1-1 draw last weekend. Shea now wants his side to push on - with the aim of closing the eight point gap on Shoreham in the league and lifting some silverware in the cup competitions. And he told the Post, to do this, he was not scared of making additions in order to achieve the club's goals. Shea said: "Watch this space. We're always looking to improve the squad and hopefully we will have some news on that front in the coming days." THree players who are due to return in the coming weeks are the injured trio of Terrell Lewis, Johan Vandriel and Ryan Cox. All three got a run out in a training match
against Sidlesham on Tuesday and Shea admitted having them all back "felt like new signings". Focus tomorrow shifts to the league, where Pagham must travel to Worthing United (3pm). Despite beating the Mavericks twice already this season, Shea warned against complacency.
THen Tuesday sees the Lions return to Nyetimber Lane, taking on Loxwood in the quarter final of the RUR charity cup. Shea said: "Both sides have improved in recent weeks so we will need to be at our best. "We're trying to take one game at a time and while we all want to do well in the cups, we need to keep up our league form."
Sids still chasing Bosham Tim Ridgway Football sport@sussexpost.co.uk SIDLESHAM are looking to keep up the pressure on Bosham at the top of the SCFL Division Two as both sides continue their remarkable unbeaten runs. Both have been near unbeatable all season - and at the halfway point sit one and two in the league. Bosham are five points clear at the top, winning 13 and drawing once in their 14 league games so far.. But Sidlesham, under the direction of new manager Daren Pearce, have not tasted defeat in 16 and continue to keep up the pressure on their neighbours. THe two sides are yet to play each other, with the first meeting planned for Boxing Day. Before then, the Sids will be able to close the gap - as this weekend the Robins are in cup action, hosting fellow SCFL Division Two side Westfield in the Sussex Intermediate Cup quarter final tomorrow (1.30pm). A win for Andy Probee's side would put them through to a semi final against lower league opposition and within touching distance of lifting the trophy for the first time in the club's 115 year history. THey head into the match in good form, smashing six past Rottingdean Village on
f Sidlesham make it 16 unbeaten with a 2-1 win against Roffey Saturday in a convincing away victory. THe Sids meanwhile can close the gap at the top to two points, making the relatively short trip to hapless Ferring (3pm). THe hosts are bottom of the league, without a point all season and with a goal difference of minus 162. Even the most pessimistic of punters would presume nothing but a convincing win for Pearce's in-form team.
THe Sids will be even more buoyant after a 2-1 triumph against Roffey last weekend. John Phillips rose highest at the far post to head in a Callum Dowdell free kick to give Sidlesham the lead early on. After being pegged back, Tom Bayely bagged his 20th goal of the season ensuring that Sids avenged the opening day defeat to the Horsham-based side - which remains their only loss all season.
Selsey creeping up the table after Seaford win
Email@ sport@sussexpost.co.uk
SELSEY will be hoping to continue their march up the table after bouncing back to form. THe Blues have been consistently inconsistent this season - winning six, drawing five and losing four of their 15 league games so far. But a 2-0 home win against Seaford Town at home last weekend took Selsey into the top half of the SCFL Division One. And with up to five games in hand on those around them, hopes are high at the Bunn Leisure Stadium that the side can push on. Two first half strikes from Joseph Clarke and Morgan Forry were enough to give Selsey all three points against a Seaford side which has struggled of late. Next up for Steve Bailey's team is a trip to
Crawley tomorrow to play Oakwood (3pm). THe home side are without a win in three, albeit having played some of the best sides in the division in recent weeks. Sitting three places and three points behind Selsey, Oakwood will feel as though the visit of the Blues will give them a chance to register a victory. But Bailey's side are full of confidence - with a recent 5-1 hammering at home to Lagney the only league game lost in November. During that time, Forry has been on fire, netting five in five and helping his side slowly move up the table. And with the playing surface at Oakwood among the best in the whole county league, there will be no excuses for Selsey not to continue their attractive brand of football.

PostSport Chi make FA Vase history Howell has old boy to thank for f Former Reading Academy prospect Dan Lincoln asseses his options in the Rocks goal
"top class" goalkeeper Lincoln Next Game
Folkestone Invicta (A) 17th December | 3pm
Tim Ridgway Football sport@sussexpost.co.uk ROCKS boss Jamie Howell has praised his "top class" goalkeeper Dan Lincoln - and thanked a Bognor old boy for bringing him to Nyewood Lane. THe former Reading Academy prospect signed for Howell's side in October - and since then has firmly established himself as the club's number one. A string of fine performances was capped off on Tuesday, when Lincoln made a series of saves - including a penalty - in the Rocks' 1-0 win over Harrow. Speaking to the Post after Lincoln's man of the match performance, Howell said his impact has been "absolutely top class" - and revealed his arrival at Nyewood Lane was due to former stopper Grant Smith. Howell said: "Dan has been brilliant since day one. He will play at a far higher level. It's so important to have a good goalkeeper, as even the top sides find out to their cost. "We were struggling in that area and I spoke to Grant who said he had a mate who couldn't get a club but would suit us to the ground in the way that we play. "He got us the goalkeeper and, so far, Dan has just been brilliant." Lincoln's man of the match performance was his first since signing for the club.
But, during that time, he has marshalled the defence well, keeping five clean sheets in 14 matches. Some Bognor fans were worried when last month Lincoln signed dual-registration forms at National League side Braintree Town. But Howell said that was just a short term fix and Lincoln, who has also spent time at Oxford United and Met Police, remains a Rocks player - for now. He said: "Braintree were short at one stage but don't think he has any intention of going up there full time. "He is our goalkeeper but like anything, if he got an opportunity he will, like all the players, move on and we will be very grateful for the work he has done." Lincoln and the rest of the squad now have a week off as planned opponents Leiston are in FA Trophy action. Howell said the rest was welcomed by all at Nyewood Lane, as it would allow his injuryhit squad to get some much needed R and R. He said: "THe lads are just dead on their feet and it's difficult for them as I'm bringing them back from injury quicker than what they should be to help the squad. "THey are not match fit and some of them are just doing it on willpower alone. "It is a good chance for us to regroup. We have achieved far more than anyone thought we would have done so far.".
Rocks still top after Boro win Tim Ridgway Football sport@sussexpost.co.uk BATTERED and bruised Bognor remain top of the Ryman Premier despite being far from their best in two competitive league matches. THe Rocks started the week with a trip to fellow promotion hopefuls Tonbridge Angles and were outplayed in a 4-1 loss. But, as has been the case all year, Bognor bounced back, battling to a 1-0 win against Harrow Borough at Nyewood Lane on Tuesday night. Despite the mixed few days, boss Jamie Howell was full of praise for his side, which continues to struggle with injuries. Speaking after the Harrow game, Howell said: "It was not a great performance but a great three points. "We haven't got enough players at the present moment and that's my responsibility. "We have seven first team players out and it's very hard to cope I'm very proud of the players at the moment. It may not have been great for the neutral but in terms of team spirit and the side fighting for each other it was top notch." Howell was looking for a response after
this side were outplayed in Saturday's trip to Dan Lincoln making a number of top saves, including a penalty deep into the second half. Tonbridge. THe win took the Rocks back above Havant A James Fraser strike in the second half was not enough to get the Rocks back into the to into first albeit having played two games more. game going into the break 3-0 down. With Leiston winning 5-3 on penalties Tuesday saw the return of Daryl Wollers, who is dual registered with Pagham, and against Eastbourne Borough in the FA Trophy, Jimmy Wild start up front playing in a face Bognor are without a game this Saturday. THeir next match is away to Folkestone mask. Just one goal from the recently returned Invicta on December 17 at 3pm. Harvey Whyte in the first half was enough to secure the points, tapping home from close range. After that it was a rearguard action, with the visiting Reds pushing forward for an equaliser. But the Rocks defence stood firm, with f Angels score their third (courtesy: David Couldridge) goalkeeper
CHICHESTER City boss Miles Rutherford has hailed his history-making side - but warned against complacency. THe Lillywhites progressed to the fourth round of FA Vase after dispatching fellow SCFL Premier side Newhaven 3-1, thanks to a brace from Scott Jones and an effort from Josh Clack. THat was despite Chris Hooker being dismissed 20 minutes into the match. THe victory takes Chi into the latter stages of the national non-league cup competition for the first time since 1995/6. THe reward is a home tie against Devon-based Buckland Athletic, planned for January 7. Speaking to the Post, Rutherford, pictured below, said: "We're not kidding ourselves. We will do what we can but the last 32 will never be easy and any side left will be decent at this level. "Buckland beat [fellow SCFL side] Horsham YMCA 3-0 in the last round so it will be tough." Before that, there a number of fixtures to catch up on, starting this Saturday at home to struggling Littlehampton Town in the league. A win against a side which is fourth bottom could take Chi above Pagham into third in the SCFL Premier. But with a number of recent signings, including the returning striker George Gaskin from Shoreham, Rutherford knows that his charges could be in for a tough
afternoon. THen comes a trip to Conference South side Eastbourne Borough in the Sussex Senior Cup third round. Rutherford said he had reduced training down this week to ensure that his limited squad could rest ahead of a busy Christmas period. He said: "In an ideal world I would want to rest some of the lads for the midweek game as it's another long trip for us. But we're not in the position to do that. "If we are doing well in the league, which we are, then really that should take preference over all of the cups." -Chi ladies are all raring to go for a top of the table clash with Plymouth on Sunday (2pm). It's first versus second at Oaklands Park with Chi knowing that a win will put them in prime position for promotion from FA Women's Premier League Division One (south west). THe side will be fully rested after last week's match against Shanklin was postponed. But there was some good news off the pitch with manager Liam Greenfield picking up the Division One FAWPL Manager of the Month award for November. Elsewhere and the under 15s beat previous table toppers Ferring Youth 5-0 with Alex Collighan scoring four, while the under 12s, seen celebrating above, produced a great defensive display to defeat Oakwood Youth 2-1.
