A MAN has been sentenced to eight years in prison following a series of burglaries. Albert Ian James, of Mill Road Crescent, Donnington, Chichester, was found guilty by a jury at Portsmouth Crown Court last month. The 58-year-old was sentenced for the burglaries in Hampshire and West Sussex between October and December 2014 Items including high value jewellery and cash were taken from homes in Bognor Regis, Littlehampton, Chichester, Waterlooville, Fareham, and Portsmouth. The jury took four and a half hours to reach their unanimous verdict on Friday. The judge described James' catalogue of offences during his sentencing as "a campaign of highly professional burglaries". Investigating officer DS Simon Clacey, who oversaw the entire investigation, said that is was police teamwork which led to the charges. He said: "We faced many challenges in identifying James as the suspect who was ultimately responsible for the burglaries. "And ultimately it was the culmination of circumstantial evidence which convicted James of the offences. "Due to the quantity of burglaries
From only £80
DC Rebecca Brown was identified as the lead officer for Hampshire Constabulary and DC Jon Woolley for Sussex Police. "Becky and Jon deserve a special mention as they worked tirelessly over the 20 month investigation to secure justice for James' victims. "I would like to personally commend their dedication to the investigation. "This was a very challenging investigation due to lack of forensic and direct evidence, the number of, and geographic distance between the offences. "However this result shows how seriously the courts take burglaries like these, making this a very rewarding investigation to have worked on. "I am confident that James' victims will be satisfied with the sentence he has been given for his crimes."
Post THE A27 improvement scheme exhibition has its second date this Monday (Aug 1). People flocked to see the options for improving the road around the city on Monday at the Chichester Assembly Rooms. The next chance to attend a consultation in the ten-week run is at the Fishbourne Centre, from 10am–7pm, and again a day later.

Fabulous fascinators, fillies 'n frolics at fantastic festival by Carl Eldridge news@sussexpost.co.uk GLORIOUS Goodwood delivered in wonderful style this week as race-goers flocked to the most beautiful course in the world. Fillies paraded in the ring, the ladies showed off fantastic frocks as well as fascinators and a sea of striking Panama hats were evident of as far as the eye could see. And the great and the good were in attendance, of course, including former England goalkeeper David Seaman, pictured above with two smiling fans. Sir Chris Hoy also enjoyed a day at fhe races on Wednesday. Pop star Josh Cuthbert from Union J was in attendance too, and had the
pleasure of the company of astunning model Chloe Lloyd. On the track on Wednesday there was drama as favourite The Gurkha narrowly beat Galileo Gold to win the Sussex Stakes. Jockey Ryan Moore was beaten by Frankie Dettori and Galileo Gold at Royal Ascot last month, with Dettori again taking his three-year-old into an early lead. But Dettori attempted to move clear over a furlong out, but the Aidan O'Brientrained 11-8 favourite eventually won by a neck. Favourites won and lost, fortunes came and went. Glasses were clinked, in victory and defeat. And race-goers will do it all again tomorrow (Saturday) on this stunning festival's final day.

Postnewspapers.co.uk ffCharlie Stemp as Arthur Kipp
Friday, July 29, 2016
Stemp is an instant star of the stage... REVIEW by Carl Eldridge ents@sussexpost.co.uk CHARLIE Stemp has all of 23 words in his biography notes in the official programme of Half A Sixpence, the new “flash, bang wallop” Cameron Mackintosh musical at the Chichester Festival Theatre. THe “biog” may be the shortest piece to date on a lead performer in what was a mesmerising, feel-good, foot-tappin' production. But given his seemingly limitless talents, his boundless energy and his captivating stage presence, young Stemp, 21, better get used to more than a passing paragraph. Hindsight allows the audience to see exactly why a virtually unknown has been handed the part of Arthur Kipps in this fantastically
re-worked production of David Heneker’s original, which was based on H. G. Wells’ semi-autobiographical novel, Kipps: The Story of A Simple Soul. Talk about a newcomer “plucked from obscurity”. Stemp’s story to date has a hint of symmetry with that of his character, in that one minute he is in the wings, the next he is bathing gloriously in the spotlight. Or in Arthur Kipps’ case, dirt-poor, then dirt-rich (twice). What an entrance. And exit, for that matter. For Stemp and the cast more than merited the standing ovation received as they came to a breath-taking conclusion of what will surely go on to be another feather in the cap of Macintosh, artistic director Jonathan Church and executive director Alan Finch.

I am told it involves time locked away from the outside world in a house with others, so it was little surprise to see him getting his theatre fix afore his incarceration, along with ever-stunning Patricia Hodge, at the CFT for Half A Sixpence on Tuesday evening. Spiffing stuff! CHICHESTER Cathedral is such a wonderful and inspiring place to visit and Chinwag has always wondered how it looks and feels so immaculately pristine. That was until yours truly learned that the cathedral can count on the help of 600 volunteers. Wow! OUR very own town crier Richard Plowman reminds us that he is somewhat of a protected species. Or would have been. In days of yore, town criers were protected by law. "Don't shoot the messenger", was a very real command and anything done him was deemed to be done to the King and, as such, was a treasonable offence. Treat him kindly, folks.

New vision of city is so exciting, says Dignum SPECIAL REPORT by Ruth Scammell news@sussexpost.co.uk CALMING the traffic in the city and improving life for cyclists and pedestrians are among some of the exciting projects being planned as part of the Chichester Vision. It’s all part of plans to improve the city and at the same time support the local economy. Other projects include a major regeneration project for the Southern Gateway area of Chichester. Work is already underway to plan the best way of improving the area if buildings such as the courts become vacant. More ideas put forward include improving the street scene; developing an evening economy; and linking the city’s cultural destinations, in particular connecting the Chichester Festival Theatre and waterfront more easily to the city centre. Councillor Tony Dignum, leader of the council and chairman of the Chichester Vision Steering Group, said: “These are exciting times for the city. The vision will bring together a whole series of ideas and thinking for the way we want Chichester to evolve over the next two decades. “The aim is to ‘join up all the dots’ and look at the city as a whole, identifying key opportunities that may arise in future which will help improve the city for everyone. “The Vision will also enable us to apply for different types of funding for these projects. The Southern Gateway will be one of the headline projects. “Positive steps are already being taken to plan for this site and secure it for development.” When completed, the Vision will set out a clear direction for all proposed development and economic growth in the city over the next 20 years. It will give a clear sense of how people want the city to flourish in the future and detail specific projects that the community wants to be taken to the next step. THe Vision has brought together businesses and organisations across Chichester to discuss how the city can ensure it meets the needs of residents, businesses, visitors and workers and how it can build on key selling points such as its culture and history. Work undertaken so far has included researching similar towns and cities, surveying residents and workers to find

Beach litter louts are branded 'disgusting'
Postnewspapers.co.uk
News 7
by Ruth Scammell news@sussexpost.co.uk BEACH-GOERS who discarded litter along West Wittering sands have been branded “disgusting” by an angry swimmer. Now people are being reminded not to leave rubbish on beaches following the busiest weekday on record at the beach. Between 15,000 and 20,000 people flocked to the popular destination on one single day as temperatures soared. But many of them left the area of outstanding natural beauty without picking up their rubbish, which was covering the beach shortly before the tide was coming in. It meant volunteers were out for hours late at night and first thing the next morning picking up things such as food and drink wrappers, paddling pools, buckets and even nappies. Heather Bazely, 64, from Bracklesham, was at the beach enjoying a barbecue with friends. She said: “It was a very hot day. The beach was absolutely packed. We were absolutely horrified to see the amount of rubbish and the type of rubbish that was on the beach. “The tide was coming in. I swim in the sea here and it’s all going to end up on my beach by the following morning. “It’s the type of people who are doing it — I can’t believe it. It was absolutely disgusting.” James Crespi is the chief operating officer for West Wittering Estate. He said: “When we face days like that, which are two to three days a year, we struggle to operate. “It was the busiest weekday we have ever had on record and 99 times out of 100 the beach is immaculate. “The problem is when we have people down here who aren’t local to the area
and are from parts of the country who don’t appreciate the outstanding natural beauty, they leave their rubbish. “We had volunteers working until 11pm and then back again at 7am.” On one day there were 4,400 cars heading to the beach. Mr Crespi has been in talks with the Highways Agency about putting signs on the A27 and the A3 warning people not to come to the beach on busy days, as they are likely to spend hours stuck in traffic. He added: “We need to educate people on how to advise when they are down here. “Is that what people do with their rubbish at home? “Lots of people are very passionate and care about this beach and work tirelessly for free all year round to keep it clean. “There are plenty of bins on the beach. I don’t think it’s asking too much of people to take their rubbish with them. “We want to change people’s behaviour and ask them to act responsibly.”
Charity all smiles STAFF at Chichester Orthodontic Clinic were all smiles after raising almost £15,000 for children’s hospice Chestnut Tree House. Clinic owner Ritu Gupta is no stranger to donating to the hospice and in 2014 more than £1,500 was raised and handed over after Ritu shaved her head. Ritu said: “We feel strongly that supporting a children’s hospice is very appropriate for a business like ours, which is dedicated to children and parents. “A visit to the orthodontist is a normal rite of passage for many teenagers but sadly some children
will not have normal lives.” Chestnut Tree House cares for 300 children with life shortening conditions all overt Sussex as well as in parts of Hampshire. It costs more than £3.5 million each year in running costs for the hospice, with less than 7p in every pound needed actually funded by the government. The Chestnut Tree House opened in 2003 offers support for the whole family from end of life and short break care to psychological and bereavement support. CHARLOTTE JOHNSON

Let fire crews stay under our control, urges council leader by Ruth Scammell news@sussexpost.co.uk CHICHESTER residents are being asked to consider backing a new campaign to keep their fire crews under council control. The "Safer in Our Hands" initiative was launched at at a full West Sussex County Council meeting in response to plans by the Sussex Police and Crime Commissioner’s office to look at taking over fire and rescue service. Launching the campaign, council leader Louise Goldsmith, said: “I
have always been of the belief that if something is right, then you have to fight for it. "That is why I am really determined to do all I can to keep this excellent service, which provides so much to our residents in so many ways. "Please support us and put your name to our petition.” The fire service is currently part of the county council and there was crossparty support for a notice of motion that stated: “This County Council recognises the benefits for our residents of the integration of the Fire and Rescue Service with other vital council services
and its close working with partners. The service is democratically accountable and we believe that the model we are operating is the right one for us and the communities we serve. “The Council therefore encourages every member to promote this model for the service at every opportunity.” Campaigners say that as well as always being there for people in times of need, the service works directly with communities preventing fires and accidents, making them stronger, safer and more resilient.

Parents 'still face penalties' for kids' term-time holidays Novium is in line for top award CHICHESTER's Novium Museum has made the top 10 list of potential winners of a coveted award. Online community Kids in Museums have shortlisted the Novium for the Family Friendly Museum Award 2016. Families will visit the Tower Street venue anonymously to roadtest it over the summer. Historian and broadcaster Dan Snow said: "It's great to see so many museums, big and small, making a huge effort to welcome and include children and families. "It's so important for young people and communities to be able to access the shared stories and dreams that our best family friendly museums can help tell. When museums get it right for future generations, they get it right for all of us. And this award celebrates that."
PARENTS have been given a harsh reminder about being fined if they take their children on holiday during term time. Following a recent High Court case, West Sussex County Council advises parents that they still risk being fined for choosing to take their children out of school to go on holiday. Christine Field, acting cabinet member for education and skills, said: “We're asking parents to consider the impact holidays in term time could have on their child’s education. “We also want to clarify the current situation as many parents wrongly believe that they will no longer be fined after a recent High Court case involving an Isle of Wight family. “Parents need to be aware our policy has not changed and the High Court decision does not change the law, but it may have an impact on how we use Fixed Penalty Notices (FPN) for poor attendance.” The council is looking at referrals for FPNs on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the child’s overall attendance. Where a school
considers that attendance has not been regular, they can refer a pupil to the council for legal action. If the council believes an offence has been committed a FPN can be issued. If the FPN is not paid within 28 days the council will usually proceed to a prosecution. The recent High Court decision means that, at present, schools need to look at a wider pattern of unauthorised absence rather than an isolated occasion in order to demonstrate why the pupil’s attendance is not regular. If a FPN cannot be issued parents are warned a fine may be issued if further periods of unauthorised absence occur. Due to this current position, the council has found it difficult to proceed with a small number of court cases due to a lack of clarity. Ms Field added: “Schools continue to take absence seriously and are only authorising absence in exceptional circumstances. “But many parents are confused by recent events and so we'd welcome further guidance from the government on this matter. “It’s vital that children attend school regularly and do not miss lessons as there is a clear link between missing school and lower academic achievement."
CHICHESTER's very own astronaut Tim Peake met Prime Minister Theresa May after being invited to a reception at 10 Downing Street. The 44-year-old was joined by UK Space Agency colleagues just over four weeks

Students need a building project CHICHESTER College is offering a helping hand to a community project in West Sussex. THe college’s enterprise society is looking to support a project with which students could get involved, providing practical, hands-on assistance. From sprucing up an existing facility to helping to build a community garden, students from both the college’s campuses at Chichester and Brinsbury are keen to get their hands dirty. Lecturer Lianne Grogan said: “Nurturing strong links with our community is important to the college and is something we always look to build upon. “Giving students volunteering opportunities and projects to get stuck into will enable them to gain real experience . We’d like to hear from any non-profit making
organisations or community groups from across the county who need some help. "We have a diverse college, so we’d like to tap into that and utilise the expertise and talent we have across both our campuses." In 2014, the college designed and created a new £20,000 play park — Sunshine Corner (above)— in Chichester, with assistance from businesses and organisations. Lianne added: “Building the park was a huge undertaking, but it was a fantastic experience. We're hoping to repeat that success this year." Contact lianne.grogan@ chichester.ac.uk, with an outline of work needed and an idea of the resource that it may require. The deadline for submissions is September 30.

save fair then fields forever by Carl Eldridge news@sussexpost.co.uk CHILDREN squealed with delight, faces were painted, strawberries were devoured in great numbers and it was grenerally accepted that the 29th annual Binsted Strawberry Fair was a great success. But there was a serious side to the gathering apart from raising money for deserving charities. Because campaigners fear one of the possible routes for an Arundel Bypass A27 improvement options could go through the Strawberry Fair fields. So the battle cry from those fighting the cause was very much: “Save Our Strawberry Fair!” According to its website, the Strawberry Fair is held in a "beautiful 19th-century
threshing barn and the Strawberry Fair fields are a great place to meet others who love rural Sussex, to buy donated local produce including herbs and shrubs from Binsted and Walberton Nurseries, and to enjoy a range of farming and local interest and craft stands". As well as strawberry teas, visitors also enjoyed an owl display, ice creams, children’s games, farm animals and stalls with shrubs and plants, bric-a-brac and cakes and jams. And for the foot-tapping fair-goers there some of Sussex's finest folk musicians played traditional tunes in and around the barnyard. THe charities supported this year are Binsted Church Repairs, Doctors Without Borders (for refugee aid), and two Sussex countryside charities, CPRE Sussex, and South Downs Society.

'Parking fines row' charity in new home hunt by Ruth Scammell news@sussexpost.co.uk
A SERVICE which transports elderly people suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's around the area is urgently searching for a new premises. Sammy Community Transport is facing the prospect of being homeless in just over a year. And the charity chairman Roger Turner claims the service will be "effectively barred from parts of Chichester" in a parking fines row. THe lease on its premises in Chichester Road, Bognor Regis, expires in 17 months and the hunt is on for an alternative building. Mr Turner said the charity was being targeted by insensitive treatment at the hands of Chichester District Council's parking services department. As reported, its wardens have issued four parking tickets to Sammy's 17-seater minibuses when their drivers have been
delivering passengers with dementia to their lunch club. THe Traffic Penalty Tribunal has recommended the notice should be cancelled because of "the very compelling reasons to do so". THis has been ignored by parking services, though Mr Collins is still fighting against one notice. He said: "It will lead to us effectively barred from parts of Chichester and our vulnerable beneficiaries being discriminated against. "Chichester refuse to understand the people we transport don't use us as transport because it's cheaper but because they have no option. "The people on the minibuses are suffering with dementia and Alzheimer's and the minibuses are causing no danger to anybody for the length of time they are there." THe problem had been solved recently by being able to use a store's car park but Mr Collins said he feared that arrangement was set to end and the ticketing could start again.

Casablanca 1942 / 102 min / U / screening Sunday 7th August If we identify strongly with the characters in some movies, then it is no mystery that “Casablanca” is one of the most popular films ever made. It is about a man and a woman who are in love, and who sacrifice love for a higher purpose. This is immensely appealing; the viewer is not only able to imagine winning the love of Humphrey Bogart or Ingrid Bergman, but unselfishly renouncing it, as a contribution to the great cause of defeating the Nazis. THe classic and much-loved romantic melodrama, always found on top-ten lists of films, is a masterful tale of a love triangle, and the political and romantic espionage is set against the backdrop of the wartime conflict between democracy and totalitarianism. Needless to say it is the classic of all classics and will be screened in the equally characteristic setting that is West Sussex’ first ‘drive in’.

An American family settles into the French countryside at the end of the First World War, where the father is involved in the peace negotiations around the Treaty of Versailles. His wife is a devout Christian who struggles with the tantrums of their defiant young son, whose wilful outbursts begin to demonstrate a monster in the making. The Childhood of a Leader is a dark, enigmatic piece of work that hovers between visionary greatness and petty domestic triviality. Corbet's inaugural stint behind the camera marks a stunning debut.

He is trying to reconnect with his family and figure out how to move forward in his career, but his family isn't the average family. Hudson's parents are clowns who operate a backyard circus on the brink of bankruptcy. As Hudson navigates his family's quirks, he develops a relationship with a clerk at the local balloon shop. Hudson's problems, however, are bigger than a cancelled show, and how he deals with them will determine whether he ever moves forward with his life and career. Shot exclusively in North Carolina and featuring a soundtrack of all North Carolina musicians, Son of Clowns is a story about a man returning home and his struggle to find his place there. A brilliant micro-budget indie movie that is well worth a watch at this year’s festival.

But with the con proving harder to pull off than he had first intended, Harry finds himself in increasingly awkward and hilarious situations in order to keep Shahbandar's suspicions at bay, and see the job through to the end. Stanley Tucci and Tom Courtney have amusing cameos. This revisiting of a swinging 1960s UK caper movie written by the Coen Brothers is entertaining and engaging.

ff Delicious food
Excellent Park Tavern serves food for thought A traditional pub filled with friendly and cheerful staff with a superb menu and mouth-watering cuisine in such a wonderful setting... THE Park Tavern is a place to eat that really does offer something for everyone. From families to students, and dog walkers to couples - the pub, ideally located in the heart of Chichester, does not disappoint. It is a traditional pub filled with friendly, cheerful - and yet not overbearing staff - that serves great homecooked food at impressive prices. But there is something different about this place. THe walls are adorned with an eclectic mix of pictures, sayings and mirrors which keep you
smiling as you spot them. It is decorated beautifully, with natural hard wood floors throughout - there is a bar area with wooden stalls and a slightly separate eating area which has a log fire in the middle which I imagine would be the perfect place to hideaway in the winter weather - cosy and snug. My partner and I went along on a Sunday, both very hungry. THe pub offered a range of dishes that were full and varied, but that did not overwhelm when making a decision on what delicious dishes to pick.
``"It was a yummy dinner and the Park Tavern is somewhere we will definitely be going back to"
THere is a summer menu on offer, filled with tasty treats such as tagliatelle arrabbiata for smoked trout, feta, beetroot and orange salad for £9. Other specials for this time of year include dressed crab with mixed leaf salad and fries and the trusty pub treat, a pint of prawns for £10. We decided to pick from the Park Tavern Sunday menu. On this were a mix of roast dinner options from lamb to beef to a three meat for the more hungry. THere were also options such as a double cheeseburger and fries and quiche and salad for those wanting a lighter option. I went for the lamb and my partner went for the beef. THe meals were huge. Proper hearty dinners that were clearly homemade and cooked with love and care. THe portions were more than generous and we both struggled to finish our plates. As well as the expertly cooked meat, there was swede, roast potatoes, parsnips, cabbage, peas, carrots and a Yorkshire pudding which almost took up the entire plate. It was delicious. Afterwards we were asked about puddings but
were both way too full to enjoy one. We decided to share a hot chocolate pudding and ice cream, and again - it came out and was delicious. A soft sponge topped with piping hot melted chocolate and a creamy vanilla ice cream accompanied it perfectly. It was a yummy dinner and somewhere we will definitely be going back to. After dinner and fully stuffed we took our drinks out to the outside of the pub, at the front. Located opposite Priory Park it is an idyllic setting and we watched some cricket being played. It was the perfect end to a great meal. THe outside is adorned in beautiful flowers which makes the Park Tavern easily one of the most inviting and welcoming pubs in Chichester. And with a pub bar menu also on offer featuring pork pies, whitebait, Cornish Pastys and more - it is the perfect spot to stop for a light bite or a hearty meal. A must visit!

NUTELLA FRENCH TOAST ROLL UPS
Martin Lury The Post's wine expert with his opinion about this week's best buys
EVER get a craving for something totally sinful and chocolaty? Then this is the recipe for you.
SAINSBURY'S is my exclusive port of call this week and it was a 2015 Sancerre Les Caillottes which initially caught my eye. This wine is grown in the vineyards of the Loire Valley where the terroir is rich in small limestones known locally as caillottes, which must have inspired the name. This is an elegant dry white wine with ripe citrus and fresh grassy aromas and a refreshing zip in the finish. I wholeheartedly recommend this one, which is currently on offer for a very reasonable £11. Moving a little further along the shelves I spotted an Oyster Bay 2014 Chardonnay from Marlborough, New Zealand — the largest wine region in the country. This wine is currently on offer at eight pounds and has mellow tropical fruit flavours with a creamy texture to the finish. This wine is a good summer evening's drink and worth a go! Breaking the habit of a lifetime I then went for a 2.25 litre Sainsbury's House Chardonnay from South Eastern Australia and found it most palatable at £12.50 with its pleasant melon and tropical fruit flavours ! May the sun be with you and the wine free flowing!
THese devilishly delicious snacks are perfect as an after dinner treat or luxurious breakfast.
INGREDIENTS • 1 egg • 1 tbsp milk • 1 tsp Cinnamon • 4-6 slices of bread • Nutella (or other spreadable chocolate) • Sugar to decorate
TO SERVE
With different fruits (optional) • Strawberry • Blackcurrent • Banana
METHOD 1. Whisk the egg, milk and cinnamon together in a small bowl until fully combined. Put this to the side. 2. Cut the crusts off your slices of bread and roll them flat with a rolling pin. Spread the Nutella on one side of each slice. Try not to go right to the edges so it does not leak when they are cooking.
7. Take the rolls out of the pan and decorate them with sugar. If you are feeling adventurous, mix some extra cinnamon into the sugar before decorating.
3. Roll each slice of bread into a spiral, like a miniature Swiss roll. 4. Coat the bottom of a frying pan with sunflower oil or melted butter. Put the pan over a medium heat before completing the next step. 5. Dip each roll into the egg mixture that was set aside earlier. Make sure it has an even coating of egg on all sides. The rolls do not need to be soaked in the mixture. 6. Put the egg covered rolls into the frying pan and cook until golden brown. Make sure to turn the rolls so each side is evenly cooked.

f Tasty tapas fits the bill
El Castizo, top for tapas Culinary delights, warm welcome from friendly staff, superb value and caballeros strumming guitars at this authentic Spanish eatery IF you are visiting Spain then tucking into tapas is surely a prerequisite to your trip? Okay, if it isn't may I be so bold as to suggest it should be? For tapas, effectively large portions of what we would call nibbles, perfectly encapsulates the Spanish relationship with the dining experience. For me, at least. You never know, as well as the relaxed, informal nature of life and the climate in Spain, the allure of this tastebud-tingling cuisine could even play a part in persuading you to live some, if not all, of your life there as one of the thousands of Brit ex-pats who enjoy days in the sun. But you don’t have to be marauding around Madrid, walking in the Andalusian mountains, or catching the rays on the Costas to find yourself consuming excellent tapas in what is virtually an authentic setting — as much as it can be in Chichester, that is. For it is here, to El Castizo, housed in what was THrough the Greenhouse a few years back, in St Pancras, where we set our satnavs on a Saturday night to admire then devour sumptuous dish after dish...all while being serenaded with jangling, punchy, percussive guitars bringing an elaborative flamenco sound to the restaurant to add to an already vibrant ambience. I say ‘found ourselves’ but in actuality it was
anything but happen-stance that we, me and a party of five friends, came to break bread drowned in olive oil here. THat’s because El Castizo is so hugely popular that fair forewarning is essential. Be prepared to book well in advance (maybe even further in advance than that, when I come to think of it). On a latish May evening we arrived full of avaricious anticipation, given the recommendations we’d all been party to from friends, acquaintances and, indeed, complete strangers who had given us the nod on this exceptional eatery. A welcome word to the wise, if you like. Well, two words. Two words, 'THe Genuine', offering an incite into the food available in this cavern of culinary excellence. And allow me to tip you the wink, too. Spanish waitresses, beyond cordial and with smiles as wide as the Tagus, eagerly fussed over our every need after ushering us to our table. In we went, through a throng of excitable diners making the most of the uplifting atmosphere as well as the wine, Estrella beer or whatever was their chosen tipple on that memorable night. What followed was quite simply a mouthwatering Mediterranean masterpiece,
` Waitresses who are beyond cordial, and who boast smiles as wide as the river Tagus at hugely popular Chichester restaurant...make sure you book a table soon for fantastic dining experience
sorry, masterpieces. THe familiar tapas came, and came, and came again. Perfectly piquant, cooked to perfection. But then of course they would have kept coming because, frankly, we kept ordering. After our initial foray into the menu, hoping and succeeding in finding more appetising jewels, we allowed abandon to control our appetite. And so we shared, amidst hearty versions of ‘Happy birthday’ sung by half-squiffy revellers followed by endless celebratory clinks of glasses, plate after plate of tantalising teasers with never a main dish in sight (there was no order to our order, shall I say). Beautiful bites such as exquisite chicken cooked in a spicy vegetable salsa, and delectable mushrooms brought to life with an expert combination of ingredients including onion, garlic, spinach in cream sauce with nutmeg, and served on toasted bread. Next? Calamari, meatballs and fried, cubed potatoes in spicy sauce. Hot but heavenly. Room for the chorizo sausage cooked slowly in cider? Tick. Prawns? Sure thing: we chose two dishes and the spicy king prawns, cooked in garlic, olive oil and guindillas (chillies) managed to edge the rather more sedate yet perfectly cooked prawns served in white wine and
smoked paprika. A close run thing, though, it has to be said. And still more arrived: sensational yet simple marinated anchovies in vinegar and garlic; traditional tortilla far too tempting to resist even though an enemy of my everexpanding waistline. And at this point I need to sound the 'dish of the evening' alarm — scrub that, make it a claxon — for the 'parcelaf de queso', or, to you and me goat cheese wrapped in serrano ham, served with salad and balsamic dressing. Incredible, in short. Just like the entire experience. Replete, we made our way into the night, the last strains of Spanish guitars announcing our departure. To conclude, if you want excellent food, served by affable, polite and professional staff, and all at exceptionally reasonable prices, head for Chichester’s slice of Spain, El Castizo. Any regrets? Yes, that we’d not been here before and that we didn’t have room to try the mixed paella. Of course, there is always the next time… providing we can get a table!

REMEMBER that beautiful moment when you step out of the school gates knowing you have six wonderful free weeks. The end of early mornings, routines and homework. The six weeks stretched out before you. I remember hot summer days down Portsmouth Lido and the Hilsea Ramparts. Many parents love the change of routine but for some it is marred by the guilt of working, struggling to find childcare. In a far corner of the UK rumbling away is the threat to let schools set their term dates raising the possibility of summer holidays being cut in England. What might the consequences be?
Line by Line LINE dance group Line by Line will be showing their footwork at Pagham on Parade next month. Their members will be at the community event at midday on August 21 for visitors to enjoy a taster session. Regular sessions are held from 6pm-8pm on Tuesdays at Pagham Village Hall and two classes from 6.16pm on Mondays at Aldwick Baptist Church and also from 2pm on Wednesdays. One of the dancers, Shirley Spurling, said: "I'm sure the best thing about line dancing is the friends you make -not
just casual friends but great friends and friends for life. "I know of a lot of people where the dancing is a lifeline to them, an escape for others but it's such a sense of achievement when you see them dancing not only for me but for them too. "I periodically advertise for new beginners but mostly it's recommendation, word of mouth. "Line dancing is under the misconception it's all yee ha and cowboy boots. Yes, we dance to country music but also some very up to date hits. More details from Shirley on 01243 698857.
THe six-week summer holiday may be a thing of the past. Will schools in England to be allowed to set their own term dates, under plans to give them more autonomy? But will there be knock-on effects? There is of course the holiday costs and childcare. At the moment, holidays cost much more from mid-July to the end of August, because that is when families with children must take their breaks. People with no children can go at other times of year for less money. And the prospect of knocking two weeks off the summer and spreading it over the rest of the year would please many for whom it is not so much the cost of childcare as the logistics of keeping children entertained for a single six-week block.
To celebrate serving the People of Donnington over the past 4 years • BBQ Tasting How will children feel about lazy•summer Day • Saturday 28th May, having 10amtheir - 2pm Wish usstolen a Happy Birthday • Free to All from them? It's hard to imagine them being pleased at the prospect, but some experts say the idea of them having a long and enriching break at the moment is misguided. While people may argue that the long holiday encourages families to indulge in quality time together, fewer parents than before are able to devote the entire holiday to their children because of work commitments. "Children need downtime to be with their families, but six weeks is too long. Even parents who are not working send them off to their mates, or cricket, or camp - there is a lot of shunting too and fro," says child psychologist Dr Pat Spungin. In reality, research shows, most kids spend a lot of the holidays in front of the TV or computer screen. In the past few decades a huge industry has sprung up providing improving time-fillers, such as summer sports camps, art or acting courses. But these are out of the financial reach of many parents. The long holiday can be tough for some children who don't have that kind of stimulation, according to Spungin. One of the most controversial factors in setting the length of the summer holiday is the debate over how much children can forget -children's learning regresses during the long break. Whatever you think – I can’t erase from my mind that wonderful summer holiday feeling! Check out: www.bognor.today for local free events.
POPPIES are among the wild flowers which have created a colourful corner in an Aldwick park. THe distinctive red flowers have been joined by a mass of others to turn the southeastern section of West Park into a floral delight. THe eye-catching sight at the Arun District Councilowned site has created plenty of comments on social media and has drawn the attention of many passers-by as they have made their way to the seafront in the summer weather. Jan Malpas, the chairman of the Friends of West Park, said: "People are going crazy about this area. "I've had emails and people coming up to me commentating upon how
fantastic this wild flower area looks with the wonderful colours and how it is acting as a hub for insects." THe poppies were planted two years ago as one of a series of sites around the Bognor Regis area to commemorate the centenary of the start of the First World War. Jan helped to sow the poppies with Arun's contractor, ISS. THe company bought 100 packs of Flanders poppy seeds from the Royal British Legion as part of its national campaign to highlight the centenary of the war and the sacrifices of those who fought in it. She also asked the council to provide a plaque at the site to explain its meaning.
Social and economic benefits A BRAND new development of four high quality homes, developed on land owned by West Sussex County Council, has gone on sale in Orchard Street, Chichester. THe properties, consisting of two semi-detached and two detached four bedroom family homes, is the first of a new initiative to develop land owned by the County Council which is no longer required for operational use. THe project is designed to unlock the value of the site, which will allow the Council to reinvest in further projects in order to bring social and economic benefits to the county. Called Orchard Grove, it is hoped the houses will be finished and ready to move into in the autumn. They are now being marketed by estate agency Henry Adams and 50% are already sold. Jeremy Hunt, West Sussex County Council’s Cabinet Member for Finance, said: “This is one of the first projects of its type that we are developing under our PropCo initiative. “We are ensuring that the site provides high quality housing suited to the local area, using local businesses as part of the project team. Arundel-based architect Neil Holland and Chichester based interior designer Rebecca Leivars have given these homes a classical yet contemporary feel, whilst family builder W Stirland is responsible for their construction. “This focused, local approach to building homes has meant we can engage with independent businesses in the area and is the first of many schemes which will follow.” PropCo was set up to help manage the County Council’s estate management for council sites no longer in use to support wider community and economic benefits. THe land in Orchard Street became surplus to educational requirements in 2000 after the closure of a school canteen based on the site.
VOTING registration HOUSEHOLDS across the Arun district are receiving one of their most important forms of the year. THe household inquiry form is part of Arun District Council's annual voter registration canvass and it is a vital way of ensuring that information on the electoral register is up to date. Anyone who has moved home, changed their name or has somebody in a household turning 18 in the next three years will find the form particularly important. Voters who took part in the recent EU referendum last month will still need to respond to the form in order to remain registered in 2017. Nigel Lynn, Arun District Council's chief executive officer and also the electoral registration officer for the district, said: "This form is not a registration form but you do need to complete it. "By checking, completing and returning these forms, we can ensure that registration continues and you will be included in future elections. "Encouraging our young voters is so important to the future of the Arun district and I encourage you to ensure these details are completed on the form and returned as soon as possible. "More information can be found at http://www.gov.uk/ registration or http://www.aboutmyvote.co.uk" THe HEF has been designed to be as easy as possible to complete. Responses can be made online or by SMS. Full details of how to do this are in the letter on the front of the form. It can also be completed over the phone or by returning the paper form in the traditional way. Residents with further questions can contact elections@arun.gov.uk or 01903 737616.

Intriguing merged history of the Dolphin and Anchor

ffDolphin and Anchor hotel after it was repainted in the 1970s
By Pat Saunders, volunteer at The Novium Museum... THE landmark Dolphin and Anchor building occupies a long footprint in West Street from the corner of Chapel Street. Its Dolphin and Anchor emblems are still visible on the buildings parapets. The building is now occupied by several different retailers; however it was once home to The Dolphin and Anchor Hotel. Having started as two separate establishments, The Dolphin and The Anchor, they merged in 1910 and the joint name was adopted. It remained a hotel until 1996 when it was sold. Records for The Dolphin date back to the
middle of the 17th century to around 1660. In 1670 it was recorded as containing 23 hearths. To put this in perspective the Bishop’s Palace had an equivalent amount of hearths, showing the grandeur of The Dolphin. The Anchor, first recorded in 1662, was later described as a new build in 1768. The Dolphin and The Anchor have been the centre of much activity throughout their separate and merged histories. The Dolphin has been a celebrated posting-house, a house or inn where horses were kept for riders. The Dolphin also had

connections with two unfortunate people who died there rather tragically. The first was Richard Pulter, who was a chaise driver, and he hanged himself in the hayloft above the stables which were at the back of the inn. The second was Charles Triggs who, at the age of 27, became the new landlord in 1813. Sadly after only 12 hours in charge, he dropped dead in his own bar after a party to welcome him. Another chaise driver at The Dolphin was Reuban Benham, great grandfather of the author H G Wells. He had a misfortunate accident one dark stormy night when he drove a postal chaise into a wharf at Midhurst instead of over the bridge. In 1838 the Dolphin was taken over by Mr and Mrs William Ballard. They were in charge when a bare-knuckle fist fight took place between poet and novelist George

Meredith and Sussex County cricketer H M Hyndman, with Meredith the winner in a contest described as ‘rough and tumble’. Mrs Ballard was the sister of Dr Osborn, president of the Wesleyan Conference, and they helped to establish the Wesleyan chapel in Chichester. Up to her death she travelled about the city in a sedan chair, the last person to do so. In 1904 the Dolphin was reported to be the headquarters of the Automobile Association (AA). There had always been great rivalry between the Dolphin and the Anchor for the coaching trade between London and Chichester. 1996 saw the tenth anniversary for Tim Scarghill and his wife Coleen as managers and at the closure they held a ‘wake’ with their friends at the hotel.

Dig deep and back the Rocks, urges Nye Camp's Pearce by Carl Eldridge sport@sussexpost.co.uk JACK Pearce is urging businesses to back the Rocks as they prepare for a new Ryman Premier Division campaign. Bognor stage their sponsorship draw evening on Wednesday (August 3) and more than 100 firms and individuals have dug deep to be in with a chance of being drawn out of the hat to be the main sponsor. THe package includes shirt logo, match programme and ground advertising and four match tickets with boardroom hospitality to every home game. And there are other packages such as match ball sponsorship up for grabs on the night, along with entertainment and a buffet. Pearce, who has been at Nyewood Lane as a player, manager, chairman (and raffle ticket seller) for more than 40 years, says the club has enjoyed some tremendous financial support from in and around the area over the
years and for that he is grateful. He said: “It’s a great night and we are looking forward to it. To be honest, without the support of those who generously enter the draw and donate to us we would struggle. “But the club have never had an investor or a consortium willing to bankroll us and I believe that is what we would need if we are to push on and progress as a club. “Last season we missed out on promotion by a single point and fans say, ‘how come we always miss out?’ But when you consider that the team that were champions (Hampton & Richmond Borough) had someone hand them more than £100,000 you get an idea of just what we have to compete with. “Worthing, along the road, were in big financial trouble last year. Now someone has come in and paid off the debts, paid for a new 3G pitch and provided money for players and he must have spent £600,000 to £1million. “I’ve been saying it for years
to people that we can’t compete financially unless we have a benefactor. In the Premier League, you have the likes of Chelsea or Manchester City, for instance, but on a much smaller scale for us, obviously. But that is football in the modern era." *IF you would like to sponsor Bognor call Maurice Warner on 01243 822325, or Jack Pearcce on 07977 272990.

Zoners' real big slog in Surrey DOUBLE Olympic sailing gold medallist Sarah Ayton has become a Goodwood Health Club ambassador.

She said: “The facilities provide the opportunity to progress and maintain a fitness programme whilst balancing time with my children in the pool or on the tennis courts.”
Falcons fly high to victory as Spitfires are shot down CHICHESTER Falcons went 6 and 1 as they shot down Southampton Spitfires in a softball encounter at Oaklands Park. THe Falcons were shaky when they fielded in the first, with two overthrows eluding first baseman Lucy Morris. But pitcher Jason Mercer settled things down with a strikeout and a tidy 1-3 play to limit the Spitfires to a single run. Mercer wasted no time responding at bat with a leadoff walk, while Milko Giuffrida singled to left field ready for David Morris to send him home with a 2-out triple, putting the Falcons 2-1 ahead in this clash on Sunday. THe Spitfires were shut out in the second thanks to a spectacular catch by Ally Warr (right) deep in centre field, followed by pinpoint glove work from
ffDerrick Longhurst
Vicki Cathie at second base. The Falcons continued the offense onslaught with Bartolo Garofalo reaching second base with his first ever atbat for the Falcons, Louise Rowe slogged her first double of the season out to right field, and Carrie Suhr knocked over the Spitfires’ shortstop’s head to bring them both in to score. THe Falcons were running away with the game by the fourth inning as Clive Janes continued to show consistency, hitting 2 for 2 on
the day as Bronte Harvey continued to improve, drawing a walk ready for Stefan Panayotopoulos to drill his trademark line drive out to centre right. THe Falcons continued to bat right through the order in the fifth to end the game early with the score at 27-5 win. The final score was reverted to 20-5 on a mercy ruling. Falcons Juniors Fastpitch section have just completed their 10 week Summer programme, as they prepare for their inaugural tournament
day on August 21. Coached by David Morris, Nick Harris, Vicki Cathie and Clive Janes from the seniors team, of 26 kids aged 11 to 16 completed the roster. THe team were also grateful to have two visits from Robbie Robison, who brought his expertise and experience to focus on mechanics and fundamentals. David Morris said: “Having Robbie along was a massive boost. He knows how to get the best out of athletes and his drills and workouts challenged the players in a way that brought out their character and ability. Players and coaches have learned from his visits. We look forward to working with Robbie again soon.” Anyone who wants to try softball and join the Falcons can email chichesterfalcons@gmail.com.

THE Surrey Slog takes place near Ewhurst and is an appropriately named event as level running ground is replaced with over 2,000 foot of steep assents and descents. On Sunday four Tone Zoners tackled this with Colin Hiscock and Ian Bayley leading the way and finishing two minutes apart. THe course, known for its beautiful hilly tracks, challenged runners on one of the hardest half marathons in the South. THe other two runners were Laura Newell and Paul Coe who finished in 2:17. This was a tremendous effort by Paul as the previous evening at 8pm he set off from Shoreham, taking part in the Lunar-tic Marathon along side Simon Bosworth. He said: ”It was tough mentally due to the concentration needed for the last 16 miles in the dark. My pace dropped in the latter stages because of it and due to the tiredness setting in towards
midnight.” Both Paul and Simon finished in 4:31 And at Walton-onThames, Helena Wilmers (above) ran the Elmbridge 10k in 56:20. Danny Mahoney ran the Down Tow up Flow Half Marathon. It's described as a gloriously scenic, flat, multi-terrain, point-to-point half marathon along the Thames towpath. The route is run in reverse direction each year, in 2016 it is “Up Flow” therefore starting in Windsor and finishing in Marlow. Danny finished in 1:34 to finish third in his age category. Surrey Slog Half Marathon: Colin Hiscock 1.59.09; Ian Bayley 2.01.13; Laura Newell 2.17.37; Paul Coe 2.17.39 . Lunar-Tic Marathon: Simon Bosworth 4.31.29 ,Paul Coe 4.31.31.

A big win...and Lamb adds to the slaughter
ff Chichester in action earlier in the season
Tyson fan Kulis is tipped for the top DAVID Kulis will look back on a successful season with Ockley ABC, by taking his international Box Cup medal and certificate across the pond to New York to visit his parents. Polish-born Bognorian Kulis' parents reside in the Big Apple and will welcome him to their Brooklyn home this summer on his annual visit. THe Ockley light-heavyweight, 15, wears his international club Box Cup championship silver medal proudly round his neck, after fighting out a barnstormer of a final with Tommy Kerrigan, last January in Sweden. Giving away over 20kg to his opponent, and ahead on points, coach Faz Chitima threw in the towel to halt the contest declaring Kulis the runner up. "There was a lot of big punches going in from both boxers," reasoned Chitima of the stoppage. "Although David was ahead on points, we didn't want to put him in the position of getting fatigued and having to fend off a boy 20kg heavier than him." Kulis is one of boxing's characters. Many people will remember him from his elated victory dance after a stoppage win at the Butlins dinner show in November of last year. His tough, come-forward style is a product of his humble upbringing. He came to England aged eight and what Kulis appreciates most about this country is the fact he "can go to school here" — a privilege denied to him while growing up in Poland. While his mother and father moved across to the States, Kulis made the switch to England, living with his sister and grandmother. And it was the move up to secondary school which brought about the familiar story of why he started boxing. "I was getting picked on by some older boys," he reveals. "I walked past the gym in Ockley Road and wanted to start training so I could learn to defend myself." So after falling in love with the sport, The Regis schoolboy quickly became one of the most dedicated kids in the gym, going for early morning runs with Chitima and even taking on a cleaning job in the gym. With his

growing enthusiasm came a thirst for knowledge of the history of the sport. Being a boxing historian myself, I am impressed at how knowledgeable Kulis is of the sport's past champions and mega-fights, especially when it comes to Iron Mike Tyson "On a visit to my mother's, in Brooklyn we were watching TV when a clip of Mike Tyson came on," recalls Kulis. "He has been my favourite fighter ever since. His speed was mesmerising and his punches so precise. My mother and father live in the same city where he grew up." Like Tyson, Kulis is well above the average weight for his age, usually leaving him at a height, weight, age or experience disadvantage every time he steps in the ring. It doesn't deter the young lion though. He will literally go in with anyone, proving it on a daily basis by sparring seasoned pros such as myself, Alex Gibbons and Southampton knockout artist Joe Pigford. "I am not afraid to fight anyone because I want to prove to myself and my family how good I am," declared the international box cup silver medalist. If he carries on with the same determination and mental toughness he has shown so far, we may just be celebrating Bognor's first national heavyweight champion sooner than you think. Remember, you read it here first, folks!

Starlets in swing THE future of Chichester Priory Park cricket is in very safe hands if the efforts of these two youngsters are anything to go by. Owen Spicer scored 87 not out and Tom Bailey, aged just eight, hit 53 not out. And their unbroken 140 for the fifth wicket in an U12 festival led to the club trumpeting their impressive displays on social media. So chuffed, and rightly so, were club seniors that they took to Twitter to say: "Unbelievable effort boys. These are two superstars.Well done boys!" Meanwhile, to prove the dazzling
duo aren't the only wons with a bright future, Chichester Priory Park U11 beat Pagham U11 Blues by 28 runs in West Sussex Area Junior Cricket League U11 Shield West. The visitors’ Tom Bisatt took two wickets from three overs with one maiden and for five runs. In bat Bisatt was again on form and scored 19 not out, and James Pollard hit 17 not out. It gave Chichester 120 for 7 (20 overs) with a net score of 185 in reply to the home side’s 87 for 6 (20 overs) and net score of 157. ROBERT HENRY

City search for first pre-season victory by Robson Friend news@sussexpost.co.uk CHICHESTER City search for their first pre-season win when they travel to Christchurch tomorrow (Saturday). But manager Miles Rutherford is still content with the progress the team has made this summer even though he admits it is difficult to get into a rhythm with different players missing during the build-up. Following the 4-0 reverse at Newport (IoW), he said: “I think every team is the same, were struggling to get availability every week and it’s a bit stop and start with personnel, but it gives us a chance to give everyone minutes. “There was four or five missing and it’ll be the same against Christchurch. We’re struggling to get the same 14 or 15 players to a game and training has been the same. It is frustrating when the season is only a couple of weeks away but it can’t be helped. “We're looking forward to the start of the season even though we've been given a tough start, with Arundel in the FA Cup and first league game against Eastbourne Town, before Littlehampton and Newhaven. You either have a brilliant start or struggle, the first games will be important, we are looking forward to it.” As for transfers, Rutherford is reasonably satisfied with the squad that has seen many players staying on from last season but reveals there are still areas where the club
ff City lost to Rocks last week needs improving despite a few new additions. He added: “We've retained most of the players from last year and added a couple but we are looking for one or two more players to strengthen up in areas where I need strengthening. “We are struggling a little bit financially, but it is something we have to get on with. We've spoken to a couple of players but if we don't add anyone were still in a good place with what we've got. “Injury wise there is only one player struggling and that’s Ellis Martin, other than that we don't have any real injuries, just people away. It’s a typical pre-season, every manager has the same problem with players away on
holidays but it does give people the opportunity to try and keep the shirt when others are unavailable. “I don't read too much into these games but it is nice to get into good habits, we haven't won any yet despite good performances but I'm not pressing the panic buttons yet, the crucial time starts in August when we have Arundel first game of the season in the cup.” Bosham, who lost 2-1 at Cams Alders against Sydedhams Wessex Premier Division side Fareham Town on Tuesday, travel to Selsey — 4-1 victors over Sidlesham last Saturday — for another friendly tomorrow (Saturday). Sidlesham are at Pagham on Sunday, kick-off 2.30pm.

Witness Chichester City travelling as foot passengers on the ferry to last week's pre-season friendly againt Newport on the Isle of Wight. SCRIBES at Nyetimber Lane reporting on Pagham will take their lives in their hands if they choose to venture to the new press box, right. It's the brainchild of Lions stalwart Clive Elderfield, who plans to video matches from his vantage point. Wait until winter, Clive!
CHICHESTER need to redouble their efforts when they get underway this season in the National three London south-east. That’s according to head coach Rob Lawrence, who will oversee the opening to the Blues’ new campaign on September 3 at Westcombe Park. And then they host their first game against Shelford on September 17. And coach Lawrence, who is adding some recruits to his squad, there is a certain togetherness in the ranks that will bode well for the season ahead. He said: “The bond in the squad is developing all the time and we will reap the benefits of that long-term." Jack Bengal has been made the new captain, taking over from Chris Johnson. And Lawrence added: “He’s been at the club for a long time and has a very good rugby pedigree.”

Get dazzler Davis! ff Rocks' Davis, far left, in action Pictures: IMOGEN NUNN
by Carl Eldridge sport@sussexpost.co.uk BOGNOR boss Jamie Howell will pull out all the stops to land exciting Brighton winger Jason Davis following his manof-the-match display against Pompey at Nyewood Lane. Rocks went down 4-1 to the Fratton Park outfit in a well-attended pre-season friendly match on Wednesday night. But the defeat gave Howell and assistant Darin Kilpatrick plenty to be happy about, chief amongst which was the polished performance of the impressive Davis. THe Albion youngster was joined by left-back Dylan Barnett on loan from the Seagulls for the night, with Howell now
no doubt keen to wrap up longer loan deals for the duo. It remains to be seen if the pair, both members of the U23 set-up at the Amex, will pull on Rocks colours again tonight (Friday) when Howell takes his charges to Nyetimber Lane to play another friendly, against Pagham. Pompey took the lead through Conor Chaplin, before James Fraser hit the bar for Bognor. Curtis Main made it 2-0 leading up to the break but soon after the interval the home side pulled a goal back. Harvey Whyte was on hand to prod home after visiting keeper Paul Jones had fumbled. Michael Smith and Adam May added two more goals for Paul Cook’s outfit to make it a comfortable win.
