West Sussex County Council is to plough £15 million on permanent repairs for our roads. As anyone left changing a tyre on the side of the road after driving over a canyon in recent months will know all too well, the condition of the county’s roads has deteriorated since the snowfall earlier in the year. By the end of March the county council will have repaired over 20,000 potholes since the beginning of the year, with 30 teams repairing up to 500 potholes per day.

Most of the repairs have been temporary but a programme of permanent repairs is now underway. Some roads - including the A24 at Buck Barn and the A272 Cowfold Road, have already been resurfaced. The decision means many non-urgent schemes will be delayed while money is diverted towards permanent road repairs such as resurfacing, deep patching and surface dressing. If anyone at County Hall is reading, any chance a few quid could go to Lambs Farm Road?

Where’s the money from? • £5m from existing road maintenance budgets. • £8.7m from delaying some schemes and by using capital grants and funding. • £1.3m in government grant. County Council Leader Henry Smith, said: “We want to return the roads to the best condition residents rightly expect but to do this we need to find a substantial amount of money to fund permanent and lasting repairs. “The Cabinet has therefore decided to defer some schemes from the planned programme of Highways and Transport works for 2010/11 and use the money to pay for permanent repairs on our roads.”

The Collector cash in on Miller’s talent The Collector saved the best for last at the first Aardvark of Rock to night be held at the Forest School on Friday. The band, veterans of the local music scene, headlined the event with a number of up-and-coming singer-songwriters also performing. And it was one of these - Leah Miller - who provided a star turn with the evening’s final song - joining The Collector to sing a song of the same name. Even on the band’s Myspace site (www.myspace,com/thecollectormusic) it’s a clear stand-out track, but live it was considerably more emotive, with Leah’s soaring voice dominating over a lovely, simplistic melody. But it’s not the only good Collector track. There was the lovely, poppy ditty of Blue Lights, numbers such as Without a Word and One Day which have an early 90s REM influence, and the excellent Not Today, which if singer Simon Mole had a grizzlier voice wouldn’t be out of place on an Eels album. There’s nothing remarkable about the musicianship - The Collector are
a band who keep it simple and have a great ear for melody. And in Gary Holder (double bass) and Alan Stubb’s excellent

keyboards they’re an excellent and amusing - live experience. Earlier on in the night, Peak 3, talented newcomers from Forest School, had kicked things off. For a first show they did a fine job. Comprising Chris Henman on keyboards, Sam Worskett on drums and Dan Manion on saxophone, they played a number of their own compositions and even a Herbie Hancock cover! Next up was Taygan Paxton, daughter of local rock legend Nick Paxton and already a seasoned performer. Clearly she has a talent as an acoustic performer, but it’s the voice which truly grabs the listener, and you can’t help but feel that a couple of her songs would benefit from the sound of a proper band - in particular ‘Waiting’.

space.com/tayganpaxtonacoustic Calum Pratt (below) gave a confident performance, with his folkpop songs captivating the audience. We really enjoyed Calum’s performance, particularly his “people watching song” that’s built on a lovely, simple chord pattern of the sort you’d expect from the likes of Fionn Regan (Mercury Prize nominated Irish singer - listen to Put a Penny in the slot and you’ll have an idea of what young Calum sounds like). Leah Miller was next up. A world away from her front-lady duties with rockers Eight Dirty Pages, Leah’s acoustic solo work consists mainly of gentle fables of lost love and heartbreak, in the vein of Martha Wainwright. Leah ended on a more positive note, with her best song - This Summer Night - before her superb turn with the headliners. Completing the line-up was Gregk Foley, a more contemporary, upbeat singer/guitarist who showed great skill with his instrument and impressed with a diverse range of songs.

Piazza Italia
It is, of course, the Piazza Italia festival this weekend, and Horsham will be graced by some of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most beautiful cars. The Ferrari F40, The Pagani Zonda, The Lada Riva - theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll all be there! We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t guarantee there will be a Lada actually - weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not entirely sure how it slipped in last year! Anyway, do pop along - itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fantastic event provided by Horsham District Council and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s free! Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve devoted way too much space to publicising it this week - see our one million page spread from Page 15...
Pothole news
We started dropping off copies of The Resident at the West Sussex County Council offices (at the old Sun Alliance building) two weeks ago. Since last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in depth report on potholes in our paper, the council has revealed it will invest ÂŁ15million on permanent repairs! Coincidence? Almost certainly!

Double boost for East Street traders Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not all been plain sailing in recent times, but the future looks bright for traders in Horshamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s East Street. This weekend businesses will look to take advantage of the extra footfall that the Piazza Italia will bring, by launching a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;loyalty schemeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in which customers can pick up stamps to enter a monthly prize draw. And work will soon start on constructing a shared surface for Horshamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s East Street. The 22 week work programme is scheduled to start on 6th April and when finished will see an improved area for pedestrians. During that time, it is likely that Wabi will open at the former Horse and Groom pub site at the corner of East Street/Denne road. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all a far cry from the disagreement and confusion concerning the flow of traffic along East Street in the last year or so. The new look East Street will not

separate cars and pedestrians, but will give priority to pedestrians, whilst driving will be prohibited at all times except for loading and Blue Badge holders. Waiting areas for loading and Blue Badge holders will also be put in place. Commenting on the project, Horsham District Council Cabinet Member for the Local Economy and Leisure, Cllr Roger Paterson, said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The renovation of East Street is another step forward in creating a distinctive street scene on the east side of Horsham, which is becoming known as The Quarter. When we trialled the pedestrianisation of East Street last year it was a huge success, and I am sure that East Street's new shared surface will prove an even greater attraction for both residents and visitors.â&#x20AC;? West Sussex County Councillor Brad Watson OBE, Chairman of North Horsham County Local Committee, said: "The District and County have been working very closely to develop a scheme that will further improve the vitality and economy of the town as well as the environment. "I am sure the shared surface for pedestrians and only essential vehicles will work well and help create a cafe culture in this part of Horsham, which is already
very popular with restaurant users. "It will also link in with the popular lanes area of Piries Place - another great benefit." The ÂŁ400,000 jointly funded project from Horsham District Council and West Sussex County Council follows a year long experimental pedestrianisation carried out in East Street in 2008/09. During the construction works East Street will be fully open to pedestrians but closed to road users, except for deliveries. Coinciding with start date for the East Street works, local businesses will be launching their own loyalty scheme, the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Quarter Cardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; over the Easter weekend. Currently 14 businesses in and around East Street, the heart of the area of Horsham becoming known as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC; T h e Quart e r â&#x20AC;&#x2122;, h a v e committed t o
working together over the next six months to run the scheme which offers purchasers the ability to collect stamps to enter a monthly prize draw. The businesses are pooling their resources to offer a fantastic prize pot of ÂŁ200 of vouchers from a selection of the participating businesses which comprise Beauty Secrets, Cape Scarlett, Cote, La Source, Leaders, Pizza Express, Premier PC Supplies, Purdies Linens, Rainbow Healing, Steamer Trading, Strada, The Aga Shop, The Cutting Room, and Tortellinis. Horsham District Council has been actively supporting the group in getting the scheme up and running.

news Ian Bradley never gave up against Asa Pearson (right) at The Holbrook Club on Saturday night
All Pictures by Vic Heritage
Pearson packs a punch Through the night, a huge crowd at the Holbrook Club had been unwavering in their support for Horsham Amateur Boxing Club’s fighters. They had with one voice cheered on wins by Harry Orsini, Danny Kirkland and Carl Francis, roared as Dan Purchase boxed superbly to win his bout, and supported Ben Pringle as he lost out in a narrow majority decision against Whitehawk’s Lloyd Martin. But the last bout of the night drew a line between the two sides of the sports hall. Two of the Horsham club’s boxers were paired together due to no-shows from fighters coming from other clubs. Both Ian Bradley and Asa Pearson had tremendous support in the crowd, and the noise as the two entered the ring was deafening. And the two didn’t dis-
appoint, producing a breathless three rounds of boxing. If it weren’t for the hugs in between rounds, you might have been excused for thinking they were bitter rivals! In the first round, the heavier Bradley came out like a man on a mission, going straight in for the leaner, quicker Pearson, who used his extra reach well. In a frantic first round, both had drawn blood by the time the bell rang. But as the fight wore on, the fitter Pearson began to get on top of his rival, who was visibly tiring and running on adrenaline alone by round three. But to the huge appreciation of the crowd, he never gave up, going for the win until the final bell. Sensing he was beginning to get on top, Pearson went for two huge punches in the third, looking for the knockout, but Bradley was alert enough to dodge them both. After winning the fight in a unanimous judges decision, Asa Pearson paid tribute to his rival and the supporters. Earlier on in the night, but still in front of a healthy crowd, young Harry Orsini had kicked things off with a great win,

followed up immediately by a classy displays by Danny Kirkland and Carl Francis, the three fighters demonstrating the pedigree of Horsham ABC’s junior training. Ben Pringle took on a tough opponent and certainly held his own for much of the bout, but with Martin beginning to get on top Ben resorted to some big swings. He failed to connect and lost out to a majority decision, which while unpopular with some supporters was generally deemed to be the right result. The only real disappointment for Horsham was Archie Hutchinson, who was understandably upset when his fight was stopped before it had Archie Hutchinson pleads his case, but this cut caused an early halt to his fight.
barely got going. Archie suffered a cut above the eye in the early exchanges and while he clearly didn’t want to stop, the decision was made for him. We’re sure that’s not what Archie had in mind on what was a big night for our local boxers, and we wish him better luck at next year’s showcase event. Up until the final bout, the biggest cheer of the night had been for Dan Purchase, who never looked troubled by his opponent, Scott Hillman from Whitehawk club. Spurred on by the great support, Purchase had his rival on the ropes in the latter stages, and was unanimously declared the winner by the judges, al-
though he later regretted not being a little more attacking. After the evening had ended he said: “It was a great night for us and a great night for the Holbrook Club. We had people queuing to buy tickets whenever people left, so we probably had more than 600 come through during the night. “It means that we’ll be able to put some new flooring down in the gym, so the money will go straight back into the club. “I thought the final bout of the night was terrific - both boxers are a credit to the club. It was a pity that we had to ask them to fight one another after others had dropped out, but it ended up being the bout of the night!” All Pictures by Vic Heritage

Pub ban after nightclub fight A Horsham man has been barred from every pub in Horsham after pleading guilty to an assault at the town’s Chameleon nightclub. Shane Weston, 22, appeared at Hove Crown Court last Thursday (25th March) and was given a sixmonth prison sentence, suspended for two years for a serious assault at the Chameleon in April 2009. Weston, of Eversfield Road, Horsham, pleaded guilty to the offence of assault occasioning actual bodily harm. He received a two year banning order from every pub in the Horsham District, north of the A272. He also received two hundred and fifty hours of unpaid work, £2,000 in costs and was ordered to pay £500 in compensation to his victim. DS Lillywhite of Horsham CID said: “Police were called to a report of an assault at the club and attended, the victim in this case was taken to hospital and there was
concern for his condition, he has since recovered from his injuries. "The investigation of public place violent crime remains a Sussex Police priority, in a bid to keep the community safe. This sentence sends a clear message that public place violent crime will not be tolerated by Police and Courts, especially when it takes place around licensed premises. “Local licensing officers will seek banning
orders on offenders that commit offences after consuming large quantities of alcohol and then go on to assault other members of the public or licensing staff in or around premises.”

Turn the amps to 11... Time to see how you look in your kid’s school uniform… Due to large demand Bad Boy Boogie return to the Holbrook Club, in North Heath Lane, Horsham, on 9th April. In a special show, the band are celebrating AC/DC history by playing two classic AC/DC albums in their entirety, in addition to other classics by the band. To mark the 30th anniversary of the ‘Back in Black’ album, reputedly second only to Michael Jackson’s Thriller in worldwide album sales. It is also 30 years ago that original singer Bon Scott tragically died, so Bad boy Boogie will also play the ‘If You Want Blood’ album in entirety. Bad Boy Boogie formed in 1995, and faithfully reproduce the Bon Scott and Brian Johnson eras of AC/DC. They recreate the look and sound of the band, right down to Angus Young’s schoolboy
outfit and duck walk! Holbrook Club members are free, guests of members £3 and non-members £4. Doors open at 7pm, with support from Redfish Biteback.

Market’s nostalgia trip Horsham folk took a little trip back in time during the Easter Charity Market on Sunday. The Rotary Club organised event included free rides around Horsham town on a Southdown Bus. The bus was built in 1964 and was promoting a very special event to be held in the town on Sunday 9th May as part of the English Festival, when Southdown Buses will re-enact their sixties timetable between Horsham and the outlying villages. As well as being able to buy some wonderful gifts from the many charities that were present, families were able to join in the fun of an Easter Egg Hunt with the top prizes being fantastic iced chocolate eggs courtesy of Thorntons. But it didn’t all go to plan due to a poor weather forecast - an appearance by Horsham choir Voices from the Coal Shed was cancelled, along with another musical event at the bandstand. John Le Rossignol of Horsham Rotary Club said: “The bus driver got a bit carried away and was taking passen-
gers on a 15 minute trip all around the town! “The weather wasn’t actually too bad but the town wasn’t very busy. Still, the charities took about £2,000 between them and the Rotary Club made another £500 so it was a successful event. “We’re now preparing for Kidz Stuff and the English Festival. If anyone has a classic 1960s car that they would like to bring to the English festival do please get in touch with the us.”
l The first details about the 2010 Kidz Stuff festival have been released. The event will be held on June 4th-6th in Horsham Park (4th will be for children with Special needs and their families and friends). Highlights include Dave Benson Phillips of Children’s TV fame, Jez Avery’s motorcycle stunt show, Bob Hogg’s sheepdog and duck display, bird of prey show, laser quest and daily world record attempts.

Good Art is hard to find When The Resident visited The Horsham Gallery, formerly known as Gallery 204, a passer-by came in and paid a considerable sum for one painting. From a layman’s perspective, the painting - by Christ Hospital based artist Alexandra Bex - looked an untidy splattering of dark colours, but something captivated the buyer. “I walk past the gallery every day and it always grabbed my attention,” she said. “I’ve never paid so much for a single piece of art but I’m very happy.” Which is why Vernon Holt makes a better manager of an art gallery than we would... Vernon has extensive experience working in London’s thriving art scene, and brings that knowledge to Horsham’s only art gallery in New Street. He said: “We have a core selection of artists, each very individual in style. Their work has been carefully selected, however we always encourage them to 'do what suits themselves'. “This ensures the painting has genuine meaning, something which most clients express interests them the most.” Vernon added: “We have to maintain a high level of standard in order to attract well-known artists with
good reputations. It is very important to maintain that and sometimes I do make mistakes - but placing the wrong art can actually put off many artists.” The paintings and images ex-
hibited at Horsham Gallery change every two weeks. Recently, beautiful nature drawings by Chris Wright, who works for Horsham based wildlife charity
Born Free, were on display, as well as intriguing wildlife paintings by Andrew Vince. Among those exhibiting soon are Jo Starkey (1st-14th May) and Adam Swaine (15th-31st June). During the last
two weekends of June, the Gallery will host the Open Studios of Horsham, with lots to see from individual artists across the town and beyond. Vernon admits that he has been inundated with requests from local artists looking to exhibit, but he is having to turn most requests down. However, there are several who have or have had work displayed at the Gallery, including the talented Jake Spicer from Henfield, and Horsham’s John Wakefield. In addition to the superb contemporary paintings the Gallery offers a full picture framing service and photographic printing and imagery. Vernon can offer image editing and printing onto canvas, watercolour paper and photographic paper, which allows you to have your own pictures turned into a work of art. And the Horsham Gallery through partner John Lines, provides a professional photographic service as well as an eclectic range of greetings cards, including artists cards and a vibrant collection of photographic images, also available in full size canvas and photographic prints. For more details call the Horsham Gallery on 01403 256444 or visit www.gallery204.co.uk

New lights
A multi million pound makeover of West Sussex street lights is about to get underway. More than 68,000 street lights, illuminated signs and bollards are to be replaced or upgraded over the next five years as part of the biggest street light project in the country. Old equipment over 15 years old will be replaced with modern, energy-saving lights, which will reduce carbon emissions by up to 25%. New technology will also allow the lights to be dimmed or turned off completely after midnight if required.
Drainage
Drainage improvements on the B2133 Billingshurst Road, Ashington, will start from Tuesday April 6th. The £28,400 West Sussex County Council scheme will involve laying new drainage pipes and road gullies to absorb excess surface water between Eastlands Farm and Spear Hill. The work is scheduled to take up to five weeks to complete, weather permitting. It will be carried out Monday to Friday from 7.30am to 5.30pm. Temporary two-way traffic lights will be in operation for the duration of the scheme.

A different class It’s a question that has puzzled man’s greatest minds for centuries - how can you make toast by riding a bicycle? Okay, it’s not, but pupils at Northolmes Junior School were shown skills they can use throughout their lives as part of Junior Citizen Week. The Junior Citizen event, organised by Horsham District Council, has run for over 15 years and aims to teach children aged eight to ten in a fun way about being a good citizen. A new element to this year’s event is ‘The Magnificent Revolution’, a g r o u p w h i c h uses bicycle power gener-
ators as educational tools. Various household appliances - including a toaster and a Scalextric track - were rigged up to the generators, so the children could pedal and see how much energy is needed to power something. Alongside this, there were nurses from the local area teaching the Junior Citizens all about hand washing and hygiene. Sussex Police and West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service taught the children about personal safety when out and about as well as in the home. More than 550 children from seventeen schools from all over the district took part in t h e
event, held at the Drill Hall, Denne Road, throughout the week. The event was funded by the Health and Wellbeing Board, of which Horsham District Council is a partner, and EDF Energy. Greg Charman, Community Safety Officer at Horsham District Council, said: “We break the sessions down into 10 minute slots, and it’s a great way for the partnership organisations to get short, sharp messages across to the children. “The event has been refreshed this year with some new activities and the children seem to be re s p o n d i n g well to it.”
The next Junior Citizen event after this one is set to take place near Pulborough from Monday 14th to Friday 18th June. Schools interested in attending the event should contact Fiona Hiron at Horsham District Council by sending an email to fiona.hiron@horsham.gov.uk or calling 01403 215427.

Gardens ready for final season
Just three months to discover Leonardslee
Spring’s late this year, thanks to one of the coldest winters in recent times. That’s great news for garden lovers everywhere, who like to get out and about to see
the best that Sussex has to offer, like Leonardslee lakes & gardens. The Grade 1 listed site plays host to one of the most spectacular displays of floral colour in the country, and this year looks like being a season to remember, in more ways than one. After a century of opening its doors to visitors, the 225acre valley will be ready to welcome visitors for the final season, opening everyday from the 1st April until the 30th June. There’s a kaleidoscope of colour to revel in, so the message is – catch it while you can. Magnificent magnolias and red swathes of camellias compliment drifts of Easter daffodils, then seas of bluebells line the paths for the emergence of Leonardslee’s crowning glories – the rhododendrons and azaleas. The winter chill can help rather than hinder the blossoming of these splendid species, which originate from the far climates of the Himalayan region. The Loder family has nurtured them on the site over the generations, giving their name to several varieties including loderi,
which displays huge white, lightly fragranced blooms that drape over some of the many miles of woodland and lakeside walks. Leonardslee offers a great day out for all the family – from the romantic setting of middle
walk and the panoramic views over the lakes, to the famed herd of wallabies, longstanding residents who always attract eager eyes around the time that the baby joeys emerge. Indoors, the “Beyond the Dolls House” Victorian market
town and country estate presents a marvel in miniature, featuring thousands of lovingly crafted items that illuminate a time past, even including working models brought to life with electric automata. There’s no better time to ex-
perience one of the truly memorable gardens of England. This year is your last chance before the doors of Leonardslee lakes & gardens finally close.

Piazza Italia 2010 The best guide to Horsham’s Number One festival
Piazza Italia 2010 More vehicles than ever before will be cruising into Horsham as part of the Piazza Italia event, taking place over the Easter weekend. On Friday 2nd April (Good Friday), Saturday 3rd April and Monday 5th April (Easter Monday) the biggest line up of Italian vehicles to visit Horsham Piazza Italia since the event began will come through the town. This includes Italian super cars like Lamborghinis and Maseratis, as well as Ferraris, Minis, Ducatis, Alfa Romeos and Fiat Coupes. Piazza Italia takes place in Horsham town centre, and involves many other places including Pulborough, Billingshurst, West Chiltington, Dorking, Three Bridges, Southwater and Rusper. In Horsham, Piazza Italia kicks off on Good Friday with Ferrari Friday with Sussex, Surrey, Wessex and Kent Ferrari owners clubs driving to the Carfax and East Street between 12.20pm and 3.30pm. Over the course of the event there will be a wealth of family entertainment on offer right across the town from the authentic Italian market to gondolier, accordion players and Venetian stilt walkers. Prestige Sports Events will be running a Scalextric Italian Challenge in County Hall North along with Pizza Express, which will also be running a name the
chef competition. Local brewery Hepworth’s and its special Piazza Italia beer will be available from the local produce market across the three days in the Carfax and many of the shops and restaurants will be running special offers, promotions and giving away samples of Italian fayre and products throughout the town. Autografica has donated some Italian themed items, and a pair of football boots signed by England footballer Michael Owen to be sold in aid of The Chestnut T r e e
House Children’s Hospice. Last year more than £4,000 was raised for the Hospice over the course of two days, but this year with an extra day added to the event all partners involved hope even more money can be raised.

Don’t miss...
If you couldn’t care less for gas-guzzling Italian supercars and feel that they might as well name it ‘Top Gear fest’ , here’s the best of the rest, with some more opposite...
Italian Market
It’s not cheap, but it sure is good. You can even try out your Italian. Don’t be a wise-ass and say “Do you take Lira?” to the traders. You’ll look an idiot as they use the Euro in Italy. We know - we asked last year. The Market is open on all three days from 10am-4pm.
Italian Music
Think of Italian music, and you’re probably either thinking of Pavarotti singing Nessun Dorma from Italia 90, or the Cornetto song! Hear the Venetian Gondoliers, Il Figaro Barbershop Quartet, La Dolce Vienetta Violin and Accodion band and the Italian Musical Chefs play those two songs over and over!
Easter trail
It’ll be like the Old Trafford car park There are ways in which the Piazza Italia festival could have been better. For instance, the Italian Job mini run could have climbed up through Swan Walk multi-storey car park, chased by some old Alfa Romeos with ‘Polizia’ stickers on the bonnet. Or the organisers could allow the Ferraris to perform tyre burning ‘doughnuts’ in the Carfax. But we’re only talking little things - Piazza Italia is once again
gearing up to provide a truly memorable Easter weekend. This year’s Piazza Italia will take place on Good Friday, Saturday and Easter Monday, 2nd 3rd and 5th April 2010 (a break for Sunday, so motoring fans can watch the Grand Prix, presumably!) Again the festival will support
On the Friday and Saturday, Horsham Museum is the start point for Roman Centurion Easter Trails. Also in the museum is the Toovey’s Artventure exhibition in the new museum art gallery.

Chestnut Tree House Children’s Hospice. Piazza Italia is hoping to beat its 2009 record by attracting about 80 privately owned Ferraris on Good Friday, with both Kent and Wessex Ferrari Owners Clubs joining those from Sussex and Surrey this year. Also on Good Friday, Ducati led Italian motorcycles will converge on the Carfax, which will be closed to through traffic to provide plenty of display parking. The De Tomaso led Italian Supercars will also park in the Carfax - this year on Easter Monday. Also on that Easter Monday, Alfa Romeos, Fiat coupes and 500s will be in the Carfax and East Street. In Horsham town centre the popular Italian market, Italia in Piazza, will return along with Ital-
ian themed entertainments and m a n y free samples and promotions from local busi-
nesses. And don’t forget that you don’t necessarily have to catch the cars in Horsham - the Ferraris will also be in Pulborough, Billingshurst and Dorking, while Southwater will again be treated to a visit by the Italian supercars. The motorbikes will meet at Motori di Marino in West Chiltington, while Rusper will once again be the meeting point for Alfas and Fiats. Confirmed event partners of Piazza Italia in 2010 include: Strada, La Source, South Lodge Hotel, West Sussex County Council, Prestige Sports Events, Hepworth Brewery and Rusper Alfa Romeo. www.piazza-italia.co.uk

Good Friday As if there wasn’t enough Ferraris at last year’s Piazza Italia, this year the organisers have extended the invitation out! So members of the Wessex Ferrari Owners Clubs will be joining members of the Surrey and Sussex Club at this year’s event. On Good Friday, the Wessex and Sussex members will meet at Pulborough, before making their way to Billingshurst, while the Surrey members converge on Dorking. They will all then head off to Horsham once again. We are told that some 80 Ferraris are currently booked to come into Horsham on Good Friday, so the event looks set to beat its 2009 record of attracting nearly 60 privately owned Ferraris. All the vehicle owners taking part in Piazza Italia over the three days are happy to help raise money for Chestnut Tree with Sussex Ferrari Owners
The Ferraris will again visit Billingshurst
Ferrari Collector’s Cards
Club leading the fundraising through their local association with the charity. Also on Good Friday, Ducati led Italian motorcycles will converge on East Street and Carfax,
which will be closed to through traffic to provide plenty of display parking. On Friday and Saturday, Horsham Museum will be the start point for an Easter centurion
hunt around the town, with Easter Egg prizes to be won and the chance to learn more about the sixteen hundredth anniversary of the end of Roman Britain.
Kids - don’t miss out of the Ferrari ‘top trumps’. The special packs are becoming a regular feature of the festival. The Ferrari collector’s cards, sponsored by Ringway, will be back again this year. The cards will be available for a small donation, which will go straight to charity.
Don’t miss the Scalextric challenge at County Hall North Horsham Churches Together will be performing on Good Friday in the Carfax (Bandstand). Also performing over the course of the festival are The Venetian Gondoliers, The Italian Accordionist and The Il Figaro Barbershop Quartet

Saturday There’s just a chance that some of you will be bored by the Italian supercars this year. “Yeah great, Ferrari F40 -seen it , Pagani Zonda - seen it, Lamborghini Countach - seen it...” So here’s something a little different! Pizza Express and V i n e s (Gatwick) Mini are joining forces to add a fun new element - an Italian Job mini run. Starting from the Mini garage near Three Bridges station in Crawley just after 11:30am on Saturday, a cavalcade of 50 Minis, some specially marked for the occasion, will set off for Pizza ExpressHorsham’s East Street location to create the festival’s first Pizza Express Italian Job mini run. Leading mini rally charity The
Drive in legendary Italian run
Italian Job is supporting this weekend’s Horsham Piazza Italia extravaganza. The Italian Job’s Giulia St. George has rallied a team of classic mini drivers to boost the mini car rally coming into Horsham on Saturday and will also be offering the chance to win a brand new mini. Once there the cars will be on display to the public and there will be many Italian themed activities to enjoy. Jenna Maynard, Manager of Pizza Express in Horsham, said “We are looking forward to celebrating the festival this year and it is sure to create a fantastic atmosphere, both in the town and our restaurant. “I’m working with my team to generate a real buzz around the

to the film. By contrast, Fiat offered the producers as many cars as they needed and $50,000, but were turned down because it would have meant replacing the Minis with Fiats.
l event and we are sponsoring the Mini run as we love the ‘Italian Job’ theme. “We will be working with MINI To raise funds for Chestnut Tree House and have decided to hold a competition in Piries Place where two special cars will be on display. “All visitors will be able to guess how many Pizza boxes can fit in a Clubman for £1 per guess, with all
proceeds going to the charity. “At various times throughout the festival we will also be giving away Pizzatines to all those who get involved. “On the Saturday we will also encourage people to visit County Hall North where we will be supplying prizes for competitors who win a race in a Mini Scalextric competition”.

The Minis were driven by legendary stuntman Remy Julienne and his team. Remy also drove in six Bond films, but received a suspended jail sentence after a fatal crash during filming of Taxi 2.
l About sixteen Cooper S's were used
during filming. The Coopers that were thrown out of the coach were regular Minis dressed up like Coopers. Ken Morris, one of the production crew members stated that six surviving Mini's were put in a lock up garage and as far as he was aware nobody returned to collect them!
There will also be a selection of competitions taking place in Horsham with the proceeds going to charity. Pizza Express will be holding a ‘Guess the Number of Pizza Boxes in the Mini’ competition, as well as a ‘Guess the Name of the Chef’ competition. To take part, just visit the restaurant in East Street.

Hi, I'm back for Easter!
FULL FULL
Easter is used to celebrate Jesus Christ rising from the dead. Jesus was crucified on Good Friday and rose on Easter Sunday. Good Friday was called God's Friday many years ago. Christ's rising from the dead is called Resurrection. I have been learning about it from school in R.E. There are many poems and fun songs to learn at Easter and stories to read. In Ancient days they had the Easter rabbit and coloured Easter eggs like we do now. I cant wait to go on a Easter egg hunt i find it really fun. I also cant wait to get lots of Easter eggs. My favourite one is creme egg, I hope to get one of them. I hope you have a fun Easter!

Easter Monday
The need for speed After the little incident with the metal bollard last year which saw several million pounds worth of supercars held up by a stump four inches high - the Italian cars will be staying away from the Forum this year. Instead, they will be in The Carfax, after a flying visit to Southwater in the morning. They will be joined by the Fiat 500s and Alfa Romeos, who will be meeting in Rusper before heading into East Street and The Carfax. As The Resident went to press, we had not had confirmation that the white Lada looking rather out of place among the glitz and glamour of last year’s event - would again be on public view! There will be a selection of firsts for the event including the Fiat Coupe Club joining the rally for the first time and a visit from a very special edition of the now near legendary Pagani Zonda supercar. Continuing the motoring theme of this year’s event, Autografica will be auctioning a host of signed memorabilia at County Hall North. Autografica will also run a silent auction over the weekend and in keeping with the Italian theme, will provide items that will be Ferrari/Italian based, including signed items by Michael Schumacher as well as a number of other Ferrari related champions such as Mike Hawthorn who was killed on the A3 at Guildford in 1959 the year after he won the World

A feast for your senses
If it wasn’t for pop music and rugby, Italy would be pretty much brilliant at everything. The beautiful country has produced exquisite football teams, the fastest road cars the world has known, an army that can take over most of the world, and of course, amazing cuisine. And you can sample a little taste of Italy in Horsham during the festival. In addition to several local restaurants - including Strada, Tortellini’s, Pizza Express and Filippo’s - all serving up superb Italian dishes, the Italian market will be in Horsham’s Carfax for all three days of the festival.

New look play area
Parents and children are enjoying a new look play area in Roffey. The newly refurbished and extended play area in Littlehaven Lane in Roffey has just been re-opened for all children
under the age of 10. Provided by Horsham District Council, it replaces a small and outdated neighbourhood playground and has been funded from property developments in the area.
I wouldn’t step into the lake at Southwater Country Park for a million quid - not with that man-eating snapping turtle in there! But if you’re super brave, on Monday 5th April (Easter Monday) there is a ‘come and try day’ at Southwater Country Park for people to get a taster of some of the watersports available at the facility. Windsurfing, canoeing and sailing are just some of the fun activities that all the family (aged 8 and up) can try. To book call 01403 734424 or email adrian@southwatersports.co.uk Youngsters will enjoy the newly opened adventure play area the Park has to offer. Complete with a newly stabilised earth mound in the play area and a huge six metre high bird’s nest tree climbing net installed at the
top of the mound, the unique design will enable daring climbers to reach heights of 58 meters above sea level, with panoramic views across the Park. At Warnham Nature Reserve, on Warnham Road in Horsham, work has been completed to improve the bird feeding station. It has been enclosed for better viewing and means even if the weather’s not great, the nature viewing still can be. Warnham Nature Reserve includes a 17 acre millpond, marshes, grassland, reedbeds, hedges and woodlands. The site provides a haven for a variety of wildlife, being known to having recorded over 400 species of plants, from Common Birdsfoot Trefoil to orchids and ancient Oaks. More than 100 species of bird have been spotted including a thriving Heronry, wildfowl, woodpeckers & Cetti's Warbler.

Another roaring success
The second showcase of the work of Dramaworks students took place at the Barn on Monday night and there were nearly 100 children participating, nearly double the amount at Christmas. The young people ranged from four to 17 years-old and it was a packed and varied programme with 'Space' mime and movement pieces and a sample of dances and songs from the 'Lion King' kicking off the show, with the highlight being 'I just want to be King!' The ethos of Dramaworks is fun and that was certainly evident! The intermediate and older groups tackled a version of 'Street Child' which traces the journey of a Victorian street child and the effect it has on Dr Barnardo, who is spurred
on to create the famous network of childrens' homes after hearing the story of Jim who was played by Abi Jewett, Guy Mannion, Ella Vardy (who is to be commended as she was quite ill) Isla Martin and Toby Read with sensitivity and empathy. Alex Taylor and Julien Barnet struck a note of fear in their m a s terly performances of the evil landlord and domineering teacher in the workhouse whilst Nathan Rierson,Oliver Hanniford, Megan Stonestreet and Julia Forbes added a touch of humour as did Sacha Goodman as the hopeless cook! Phoebe Phillips gave a strong performance as the owner of the workhouse and all the
children captured the misery of the homeless children very well. The final scene with Edward Southgate as Dr Barnardo was touching as the children realised how many
homeless children there are still in the world. At this stage of Dramaworks, empathy and understanding are very important principles. The final section was much

Villages set for 30 limit More villages in West Sussex could be in line for a 30 mph speed limit following a decision by West Sussex County Council. If we’re honest, you can’t really go any faster than that in most cases anyway, in case a pothole rips your wheel apart, but it’ll be good news for many villagers, and bad news for those drivers who are always in a hurry. The Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport Derek Whittington has taken a decision to amend the County Council’s speed limit policy for villages. It follows a Notice of Motion by County Councillor Mike Hall at a meeting of the full County Council in February calling for village speed limits
to be reduced. It means that County Local Committees (CLCs) will be able to review villages that currently have a 40 mph speed limit, with a view to reducing it to 30 mph. Derek said: “The clear view of the Council is that it wanted to see changes made to enable speed limits to be reduced and as a result I have taken a decision to amend our policy.” County Council Leader Henry Smith said: “Many villages have raised concerns over speed limits being too high at 40 mph and the changes mean we can directly respond to those. “It means the network of County Local Committees will now be able to assess village
speed limits in their area.” The policy change applies to all villages that currently have a 40 mph speed limit. County Local Committees will be able to include village speed limit changes in their prioritised lists for Traffic Regulation Orders (TRO) - currently three per year per CLC. The change in speed limit would be subject to a TRO. This would be advertised and put into place if there are no objections. If objections are received, they will be considered by the CLC before a decision is taken. The change to policy will be closely monitored by the Council and surveys undertaken at villages where changes to speed limits are made, to help inform any policy changes.
Train Operator Southern today announced the revised timetable it will be operating when signallers belonging to the RMT union go on strike next week. If it goes ahead, the dispute
over working conditions means that many signal boxes across Southern will be closed and many train services will be cancelled. Network Rail will be manning key signal boxes between the hours of 7am and
7pm. There will be two trains per hour between Brighton and Victoria and between London and Horsham. Passengers note that no services operate after 6.50pm.

‘We’re not heroes!’
Six members of the West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service’s Technical Rescue Unit (TRU) have scooped a Mercury FM Local Hero Award. The radio station presents the awards in recognition of outstanding local individuals and organisations from across Sussex and Surrey. The award, which was pre-
sented at the Effingham Park Hotel, Copthorne, Crawley, was recieved for the part the Technical Rescue Unit played in the UK’s 64-strong International Search and Rescue Mission in earthquake-hit Haiti. They spent 10 days in the capital, Port-auPrince, after it was devastated. The six members of the TRU are: l Station Manager St John
Stanley (who lives in Billingshurst). l Crew Manager Chris Kemp (Horsham). l Firefighters Peter ThorpeHinks (Steyning) Brian Vincent (Worthing), Rob Negus (Hove) and Mick Lewin (Billingshurst). St John Stanley said: “We don’t really consider ourselves to be
heroes. We were just doing our job to the best of our abilities. The real heroes were the Haitian people.” Henry Smith, Leader, West Sussex County Council, said: “They carried out a difficult job in difficult conditions. It was a magnificent team effort and they are, indeed, true local heroes. “Congratulations to them all.”
Service changes
West Sussex County Council’s five Register Offices, which are at Chichester, Crawley, Haywards Heath, Horsham, and Worthing, will operate as one from Thursday April 1st. This means births or deaths occurring in West Sussex can be registered at any of the offices and couples will be able to give notice of marriage and civil partnerships at the offices. “This wasn’t possible in the past. We have now made the system much more flexible,” said Peter
Evans, Cabinet Member responsible for the Registration Service. However, anyone subject to immigration control will still need to give notice of marriage or civil partnership at Crawley Register Office, which also offers a Nationality Checking Service.
A member of the West Sussex & Surrey Region of the FSB has been elected as the organisation’s National Chairman. John Walker, who has been Policy Chairman of the 210,000 member strong FSB for the past 8
years, heard the result during the FSB’s recent national AGM and Conference in Aberdeen Mr Walker said: “It is a great honour to have been elected to this position after being involved at all levels of the organisation during the past 20 years”

Lucky Heather springs up first prize flowers With 45 entries in seven daffodil classes, Horsham Horticultural Society’s annual Spring Show got off to a fine start on 27th March at the North Heath Hall. The most popular classes proved to be specimen daffodils, closely followed by three trumpet daffodils and three miniatures. Inevitably winter and early spring conditions resulted in a worrying time for exhibitors; overall entry numbers were lower than last year, but nevertheless all but one of the 32 classes in the show had participants. Show Secretary, Geoffrey Kirk, commented on how pleasing this year’s show had been in new members’ participation. He said: “Several of the new members were very successful, including one of the cookery classes being won by a man!” After a very stimulating talk on Flower Arranging as part of the Society’s winter programme there was a record number of beautiful entries with the theme “Spring is Sprung”, the first prize going to Heather Morten.
The winners of the Spring Show contests Chairman, Derek Santer, thanked everyone concerned with organising all aspects of the show for their sterling efforts and members and visitors for coming to view the exhibits. Derek distributed small fuchsia plants for members participating in the Betty Santer Cup competition at the Summer Show in August. The
task will be for members to grow the best fuchsia plant between now and then. The cups were presented by the Society’s President, Alan Harris, with warm words and encouragement for all the winners, including: Stanley Cup - for the best exhibit of daffodils and narcissi: Ray Hartley
Irene Crackston Cup - for pot plants: Lynda Ashby (daffodils) Ball Cup - for cacti and succulents: Sue McMahon (cactus) Spring Floral Cup - for spring flowers and heathers: Jan Unsted (heather sprays) Secretary’s Cup - for small floral exhibits: Derek Santer (camellia) Woods Mill Cup - for shrubs etc. Geoffrey Kirk (forsythia) Butcher’s Trophy - for the best painting, drawing or other handicraft: Geoffrey Peckham Domestic Cup - for the most points gained in cookery: Celia Jarratt Weald Cup - for the highest number of points gained overall in the show: Celia Jarratt & Geoffrey Kirk Jubilee Cup - for the member gaining the highest number of points for exhibits at winter meetings: Rita Ginn. The Society’s Summer Show will be held at North Heath Hall, St Mark’s Lane, on 14th August. The show will include the annual photographic competition. Full details at www.horshamhorticulturalsociety.co.uk
Slinfold show
Slinfold Horticultural Society’s Garden Club held its Spring Show on Saturday, 20th March. The bitter winter we have had meant that the narcissus section looked relatively sparse, but all other classes, for pot plants, for Floral Art, Cookery, Handicraft and Children’s classes were strongly represented. Mrs. Daphne Davies won the Bill Cowan Cup for the best bloom of the trumpet daffodils. Sarah Woodley won the children’s Spring Award for the best piece of handicraft in the children’s division. The children also collected seed potatoes for the Great Potato Challenge (where they grow a seed potato in a bucket and bring it along to our Sweet Pea & Rose Show on Sunday June 26th when the biggest crop wins a prize) and put their names down for pumpkin seeds for the competition at the Autumn Show. Local children who wish to enter these competitions should contact our Secretary on 790464 to obtain seeds & details. Also at our Sweet Pea & Rose Show on Sunday June 26th we are inviting other local Horticultural Societies to enter our Society Class, in any 3 of the following 5 items. l One vase, containing 3 types of flowers minimum 8 stems l A plate of soft fruit (numbers as in RHS rules) l A plate of 6 new potatoes l A cherry cake l A Floral Art exhibit “Fountain of Flowers”, - 90cm (30”) table space allowed Any society that would like to enter this class but have not yet heard from us, should contact the Secretary on 790464 for details

Weave your magic with sewing class Horsham mum Helen Windwood is setting up new sewing classes for children and adults. “In a time of make do and mend it is important for our young people to learn skills that will serve them throughout their lives”, said Helen. The classes will cover a range of sewing techniques and everyone will be encouraged to stamp their own personal identity on the things they make. From cushions to toys to room tidies to bags to clothes there will be a variety of things to design and make. Brand new sewing machines will be available to use and all equipment and materials will be provided as part of the course
fees. Helen is an experienced dressmaker who learnt her sewing skills at school. She said: “My sewing teacher, Mrs Putman, was one of the teachers who inspired me the most. Sadly the school curriculum today doesn’t allow as much time as I had for learning skills like sewing. I wanted to provide an opportunity for keen sewers to develop their abilities further.” The children’s classes will be for boys and girls although Helen is expecting the male market will be a harder one to crack. Knitting is enjoying a bit of a resurgence, thanks to new heroes such as The Knitted Character (left) and Peter the Duck of Harry Hill’s TV Burp fame. However, any teenage boys wishing to take up the classes might be wisely advised to keep quiet in class about it! The first courses for 8-11 year olds and 12+ children will start after Easter. Contact needlesandpins@tesco.net or Helen on 01403 251332 for more details.

Heart-throbs rock at HYC Horsham Youth centre really did rock on Friday, March 19th when it offered unsigned bands the chance to support teenage heartthrobs, Amy Can Flyy. The bubbly Bournemouth foursome attracted a sell-out gig with over 200 excited youngsters attending. Indie-pop group Note to Self opened the night which surprisingly was also their first ever “proper” gig. They were all jitters and laughs before performing to the bustling crowd and only managed to stutter out that they were, needless to say, “really nervous!” However, the shy group blossomed onstage with a mix of beats that lightly resembled Arctic Monkeys and stirring acoustic melodies. Following Note to Self were the bouncy bundle of boys, Flight School Academy, who effortlessly juxtapose the unlikely concoction of electropop and grime. These guys weren’t even fazed by playing to all those eager ears, and with second place at the recent Crawley BOTB finals under their belt, they had nothing to worry
about. The trio of Conor Allen, Will Martins and Jacob Fooks formed on Christmas Day and have travelled a long way since then, with a collection of fans already devoted to them; “they’re amazing” said one excited fan. 2010 sure looks good for FSA with a heap of shows lined up already and the promise of an EP looming. The audience went especially crazy for their remix of Kesha’s “Tik Tok” , jumping, waving and screaming like there was no tomorrow. The somewhat suggestively named Baby-Oiled Bodies were next on stage playing
their first gig. Formed last September, the group of college friends entertained the audience with their easy-listening guitar melodies accompanied by some haunting and beautiful vocals from the female lead. These friendly, smiley, enthusiastic music maestros are currently setting up their MySpace, but ask any fans to check them out on Facebook, as they’re hopefully recording soon. Casiokid were the penultimate band of the night; the duo of Jack and Stu also recently supported Amy Can Flyy on their February tour with Canada Water. Combining a mixture of screamo, punk sensibilities, jukebox jungles and raw vocals, the band got the audience raving and jumping with a slight creation of a mosh pit throughout the set. And, to close the night, the ones the audience had been screaming out for all night, Amy Can Flyy burst on the stage promoting their new EP and new single “Letting Go Of The Monster”, which differs from their old work with its softer vocals and more emo-

tive and personal lyrics, but is undoubtedly just as catchy as their previous songs. Returning for their third time, the boys spoke of the “Horsham Curse”, as on their previous shows, malfunctions with the computer and unlikely fire alarms prevented them from performing at their best; but, it was a case of third time lucky on Friday as the lads bounced on stage with their mental onstage presence that the audience
mimicked by jumping and singing along. Loudly. The mix of influences, from old 80’s bands like The Smiths and The Cure to new wave electro and lyricists such as Max Bemis and Justin Pierre help to make their sunny, sing-a-long, gameboymix tunes. Anthem “Doctor, Doctor” was the favourite of the night, whilst the audience interaction throughout “Dinosaurs Go Rawr” was immense too.

You should have had one through the post recently, so do have another look through the Pizza leaflets and charity collection bags to make sure you have it. The card has information for residents on how to do their bit to reduce carbon emissions – and save money. Under each of the five topics are three ways of making a change, graded easy, medium and harder, giving everyone the opportunity to do their bit. In the ‘I will reduce my energy use’ section, the three options are to always turn things off, apply for a grant to insulate loft and walls, and switch to a green
energy tariff. For businesses, as well as individuals, the topic ‘we will become carbon neutral’ is one which has sensible suggestions including recycling at work, switching to recycled stationery and organising a green team to really get things moving. The other topics are, ‘I will use local food’, ‘I will only buy what I need’ and ‘we will walk to school’ all of which have some
simple steps to help residents sign up to the climate change pledge. Cllr Robert Nye, Leader of Horsham District Council, said:
“Climate change is one of the greatest challenges that we face both globally and locally. “Horsham District Council will play its part in addressing this issue but we will only be effective by acting together with the local community.” Acting Together on Climate Change is the first climate change strategy for the Hor-
sham District and was launched last summer. The strategy commits everyone to challenging targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across the Horsham District. To get a copy of the poster, either use the pull out from the Horsham District News magazine, or download it from www.horsham.gov.uk

Seymour’s legal services Relationship breakdown Relationship breakdowns are traumatic and difficult for all concerned. Therefore take advice from a specialist family law solicitor who will help to resolve matters so you can move forward. Below is brief information from the author’s perspective.
Divorce If you decide to divorce, the procedure can be straightforward as most ‘suits’ proceed as ‘undefended causes’ which take about three months to Decree Nisi. Your solicitor will help you decide which “divorce fact” you should use; they are: (i) adultery, (ii) unreasonable behaviour, (iii) desertion for a period of two years, (iv) two years separation with consent and (v) five years separation which does not need the Respondent’s consent. There is one subjective ground for divorce “the marriage has irretrievably broken down without any prospect of reconciliation”.
Injunctions If life is unbearable then the Courts are there to help and can issue injunction orders that will regulate occupation of your home and protect against harassment and violence.
Finances on divorce Issue of a divorce petition gives the Court jurisdiction to resolve the financial consequences of a marriage breakdown.
An advertising promotion for The Resident
An experienced solicitor will advise at which Court to start divorce proceedings which will generally be your local County Court. But, if financial matters are not straight forward, complicated by other factors or the case has an international element it may be appropriate to use the Principal Registry of the Family Division in Central London. Courts make interim and final financial orders regarding income and capital by consent or following a contested hearing. A capital order only takes effect when the Decree Nisi is made Absolute. This Decree ends the marriage, affects inheritance and impacts on pension rights. Court applications can be made for interim maintenance, also a contribution towards legal costs before the divorce is final. An expert matrimonial solicitor will advise on the viability of an Application. Also whether a “freezing order” is required to protect family assets from being dissipated. Throughout financial proceedings there is an obligation to provide continuing financial disclosure of relevant information and documentation. Your solicitor will guide you through this difficult process and will advise on the likely outcome. The House of Lords case of White v. White (2000) emphasised the principals of fairness, non-discrimination and equal division of matrimonial assets. An equal division is the starting point, but will be otherwise in certain circum-
stances. The outcome will be determined by personal, domestic and financial circumstances, the wide discretion of Judges, and, critically the skill and experience of your legal team.
Separation If you are un-decided or not ready to divorce, but are or will be living separate from your spouse or partner and have sorted out all matters then you should consider a separation agreement to regulate your financial and other domestic arrangements. The agreement is effectively a contract between both of you. The agreement will not bind the Court [should divorce or other Court proceedings follow] moreso if your personal circumstances change. It will however demonstrate your intent at the time which factor should be considered when a future Order is sought.
Finances following cohabitation You will be treated differently when determining financial matters if you are not married. It is a misconception that if you have lived together for a significant period of time you are a “common law spouse”, this is a fiction. You will be a cohabiting couple which is not equivalent to marriage. Cohabiting couples don’t have the same financial rights as married couples. A specialist solicitor will advise on the law and your options. Any claim against your former partner’s
assets will be determined using Property and Trust Law also the principals of the Law of Equity all of which are more restrictive than matrimonial jurisdiction. Successful claims will depend on financial contribution. So, if you have not contributed to the acquisition of property or other assets you may not have a claim. Dependent on circumstance you could establish a beneficial interest, but not maintenance. If you have children then matters can become complicated, but beneficial, as it may be possible to claim for a child’s financial provision and property adjustment using children legislation. The House of Lords case of Stack v Dowden (2007) clarified the position for cohabiting couples.
Caution! Before you remarry or live with another consider a prenuptial or living together agreement... it could save you a small fortune in legal fees! Check to see if you have Legal Expense Insurance... you could be surprised. Whatever your situation, an expert and specialist matrimonial and family law experienced solicitor can advise and assist you in dealing with all the consequences of relationship breakdowns.

Darling’s final duty? The Chancellor’s last budget before the general election included the dramatic news that the stamp duty threshold for firsttime buyers will rise from £125,000 to £250,000. The rise in the threshold follows the successful stamp duty holiday on properties worth between £125,000 and £175,000 that ended last year. This was seen as a key driver in improved transaction rates at the end of last year. However, the news may not help as many potential homeowners as the government has initially indicated. The Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML) points to confusion surrounding the definition of first-time buyers. It says that many first-time buyers are in reality returning buyers who have rented for a period. But according to the HMRC’s strict definition of first-time buyers this group is unlikely to benefit from this latest stamp duty concession. The CML points out that the HMRC guidance says the first time buyer must not “have previously acquired a major interest in ...residential property....anywhere in the world". The CML says this may be difficult to verify and instead calls on the chancellor to create a far simpler concession of exempting all properties worth less than £250,000 from stamp duty. The body estimates that around 136,000 first time buyers may still be exempt from stamp duty. However, the figure would have been more than double this if the concession were available to all buyers including those who are selling a property. The government is planning to pay for this stamp duty holiday for first-time buyers by increasing stamp duty tax from 4% to 5% on properties worth more than £1m from next year. CML director general Michael Coogan said: "The Budget offers a modest potential boost to the housing
and mortgage market in terms of reducing transaction costs for first-time buyers, and potentially improving efficiencies for lenders. “But as always the devil is

in the detail, and the detail is confused. The stamp duty concession in particular looks like a tax loophole waiting to happen.” Others are less critical of the stamp duty announcement. Paul Smith, chief executive of estate agency chain Spicerhaart said: “First-time buyers are the lifeblood of the industry and the wider economy. The new stamp duty threshold is set to strengthen the UK property market more so than any other (recent) government initiative. “This new measure is of national significance as it will substantially increase the number of first-time buyers coming into the property market, giving the rest of the market a much needed boost and mitigate any negative effects that the recent rise in stamp duty has had after the cessation of the stamp duty holiday.” He added that the changes to stamp duty would be “particularly helpful to those trying to get on the ladder in London and the south east of England where property prices are significantly higher.” He also warns that firsttime buyers will continue to

struggle to save the large deposit needed to secure a home. He added: “The average firsttime buyer needs a 15% deposit before they can purchase their property, which is still unaffordable for most. The gov-
ernment should either help decrease the amount of deposit required or assist first-time buyers with finding funding through lending institutions.” David Whittaker, managing director of Mortgages for Busi-

ness, is another to welcome the stamp duty announcement and call for further help to improve lending. He described first-time buyers as “the fuel that keeps the mortgage market alive.” He added: “As long as they’re
happy, the rest of the market tends to be happy, that’s why the new 5% stamp duty rate on £1m properties is a sideshow. Increased demand at the entrylevel end of the market helps to strengthen prices. “

House prices to stay ‘flat’?
UK house prices are set to remain virtually flat for the entirety of 2010, one expert has suggested. Howard Archer, chief UK and European economist for IHS Global Insight, explains new "muted" data from the British Bankers' Association (BBA) has reinforced suspicions that house prices will not rise for the rest of the year. According to the BBA, the average house price in February was £140,800 - one per cent more than in January. Similarly, just 122 more mortgages were approved than in the previous month.
Good news for market
Connells Land & New Homes division believes the Government’s recent announcement to increase the Stamp Duty threshold to £250,000 for first time buyers is good news for the new homes market. “This is fantastic for those looking to buy their first home, especially young families, who have perhaps have struggled to get onto the housing ladder in recent years,” says Connells Regional Director Iain Berry. “The decision by Alistair Darling in the recent Budget will inject further confidence into the housing market, which is great for all home owners, as increased activity at the lower end of the property market will inevitably filter up to more expensive properties.” The changes to the stamp duty threshold mean that a first time buyer purchasing a property worth between £125,000 and £250,000 will be exempt from paying the one per cent tax. “The increase will be in place for two years and the Government has claimed this will mean nine out of ten first time buyers will not have to pay stamp duty. “This saving along with a variety of incentives that are still on offer from House Builders to assist first time buyers, makes now an ideal time to secure one’s first home.”

The chancellor’s decision to offer Stamp Duty relief for first-time buyers on properties up to £250,000 will help stimulate the local housing market from the bottom up, according to local estate agent Fox and Sons in Horsham. The move to extend the Stamp Duty threshold for firsttime buyers, as outlined in the recent pre-election budget, should offer buyers a much needed saving on their first home purchase and prompt those looking to upsize from starter homes to put their property on the market. The Government’s decision on Stamp Duty for new buyers combined with greater access to mortgage finance at 90 per cent loan-to-value should make it easier for first-time buyers to get on the property ladder,” says Gemma Rice, Mortgage Services Consultant at Fox and Sons. “We have already seen increasing interest from new buyers as the housing market has improved but the decision to offer this group Stamp Duty relief under £250,000 will instil further confidence as buyers will have more money to put towards a deposit or the overall cost of moving home. “It is also likely the new stamp duty threshold will prompt those upsizing to get their properties on the market as soon as possible”, Gemma Rice continues. “There will be an influx of first-time buyers entering the market so people with a property under £250,000 who are looking to upsize would be wise to take advantage of in-
Gemma Rice creased demand for their property.” Fox and Sons, are part of the Sequence national estate agency network, has seen greater activity across the market since the start of the year including a 20 per cent increase in houses being placed on the market and around 15 per cent increase in house prices in the last year. “The decision to help firsttime buyers by extending the Stamp Duty threshold is just one of many positive signs we have been seeing in the housing market over recent months,” Gemma Rice says. “I hope that the Government’s policy on Stamp Duty for those looking to get on the property ladder will provide a boost to couples and young families who want to buy their own home in 2010.” To find out more about selling your property, the local market or to arrange a free market appraisal, contact your local Fox and Sons branch on 01403 217417.

Take your work home Katrina Smith Interior Design Expert
Whilst manning the Sussex Women in Business stand at Microbiz last month I was amazed at the number of people starting up their own businesses, and the vast majority of them planning to work from home. Business Link South East carried out a survey in August 2009, from which it emerged that over 325,000 businesses or 44% of all SME’s in the South East are home based. With this in mind I have put together some tips on setting up your home based office. The first step is to think about what you want from a home office and how much space you have. It is great if you have an extra room, or can convert a garage or as I did, build a home office at the bottom of the garden. But many people do not have this luxury.
Combining with Your Living Space Firstly, you have to be organised and tidy, otherwise chaos will ensue. Invest in storage and/or a good desk with plenty of drawers. Make the space your dedicated work space – somewhere you can claim as your own.
Plan Your Decorating Scheme It is a good idea to spend some time contemplating your colour scheme, as colours can influence the mood of a room. Pastel shades are calming and soothing, yellow is stimulating, whilst blue will focus the mind.
Bright shades of orange or pink are great for energy and socialising. Whatever colour scheme you choose don't forget to choose one that reflects what the room is used for the majority of the time.
‘My office window looks out across the garden – which never fails to inspire!”
A Room With a View Plenty of light is good for your mood. However too much and you might not be able to see the computer screen, and as over 97% of home based businesses require the use of a computer and broadband this is a major consideration. A room with a view will help your creativity – my office window looks out across the garden – which never fails to inspire!
What Window Treatment Blinds are the most practical choice for an office environment, as they can be adjusted to prevent glare and allow as much or as little light into the room as you require. You can go for a plain roman blind, roller or venetian. One that
matches your colour scheme will look great.
Let There Be Light Good task lighting is essential. Opt for a desk light as well as overhead lighting. If your desk is small then why not look at using clamp lights – simply clip them where you need most light.
Equipment As always good storage is essential. A desk with plenty of room to house your keyboard and screen, somewhere for the printer, the telephone and a filing
Mallards of Horsham are delighted to have the opportunity to market this special property. Situated in a small Sussex hamlet, just to the south of Horsham town, having a wealth of charm and character associated with an older property yet has deceivingly spacious accommodation enhanced by a magnificent conservatory. The ground floor has a sitting room with wood burning stove and double opening doors leading to the conservatory. There is an open plan kitchen/dining room with a well fitted kitchen having several builtin appliances. There is also a study which could be used as a fourth
cabinet. A comfortable, supportive office chair is very very important, and this is where it might be best to spend a little more money. Try not to place your desk so that you have your back to the door, this can be very distracting. Something I couldn't get by without is my wall planner, so that I can see on a month by month basis the projects I have coming up. For further information contact Katrina at True Colours Interiors. Telephone: 01403 263509 www.truecoloursinteriors.co.uk

Bromley Pageant of Motoring returns to Norman Park, Bromley, on Sunday 13th June, with celebrations for the centenary of the Alfa Romeo and the 75th anniversary of the Aston Martin Owners Club. Held in association with specialist insurance company Footman James, the Pageant has more than 3,000 classic cars and bikes on show and attracts around 30,000 visitors. The Pageant is the biggest one-day classic vehicle show in the World and features an automotive extravaganza of classic cars, bikes, trucks, motorcycles and more.
McLaren Automotive has announced details of its range of innovative high-performance sports cars and the start of construction of the McLaren Production Centre (MPC). The MPC, a 32,000m² high-tech manufacturing facility located at McLaren Group’s headquarters in Woking, England, began construction on March 1st following a design from Foster + Partners, the same architects behind the awardwinning McLaren Technology Centre (MTC). The new facility will be completed in just 12 months, with the first MP4-12C high-performance sports cars moving through the MPC production line in spring 2011. Ron Dennis, Chairman of McLaren Automotive said: “ We
have long held the dream of building a range of McLaren high-performance sports cars that take the raw elements of Formula 1 principles, processes and performance and forge them into a unique package; one that offers customer-focused requirements of quality, efficiency, comfort and reliability. “Today’s announcements confirm our intention to challenge convention at the highest levels of automotive design, from a hightech home that I am proud to say will deliver jobs, expertise and innovation in manufacturing and engineering. “In my first season at McLaren in 1981 we were an operation of 50 people dedicated solely to winning
motor races. Since then, we have grown to a company of over a thousand that is, I believe, at the forefront of the UK’s innovative manufacturing industries. “Everything we have achieved as a well-honed and fiercely competitive team over the past 30 years has prepared us for this moment. “It is with great confidence, and genuine excitement, that we move forward with our plans to open up a new chapter for McLaren and the UK’s modern manufacturing industries,” Dennis concluded. Funding for the £40 million investment has come from McLaren Automotive’s existing shareholders, whilst a new shareholding offer will support future development programmes for a range of McLaren high-performance sports cars that will be launched soon after the 12C. T h e MPC will be the home of
McLaren Automotive’s range of high-performance and highly efficient sports cars, supporting up to 800 jobs and manufacturing around 4,000 cars by the middle of the decade. New standards of quality will be introduced into the sports car market, as well as innovative new technologies unique to McLaren. All components on the cars are bespoke to McLaren. The first 12C customer cars will be completed in the Production Hall at the McLaren Technology Centre in late-2010, approximately three months before production transfers to the brand new McLaren Production Centre. They will follow the same build and quality processes that McLaren Automotive developed for the £300,000-plus carbon-fibre based Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. However, in a revolutionary step that allows the 12C to retail at around half that price point, McLaren will introduce an innovative one-piece carbon-fibre chassis structure: the first time such a lightweight, safe and strong structure has been offered on a series production car in this market segment. The McLaren MP4-12C goes on sale in spring 2011.
Order books have opened for Aygo Black, a new version of Toyota’s city car. Aygo Black comes with a choice array of sports styling features, building on the specification of the Aygo+ model with additional Alcantara and leather upholstery, a leather-trimmed sports steering wheel, leather gear shift knob , 14-inch alloy wheels and Tempest Black metallic exterior paint finish. Customers can also take advantage of Toyota’s offer of one year’s free Insurance.
The Alfa MiTo range is boosted by the arrival of the MultiJet II diesel engine in the form of the Alfa MiTo 1.3 JTDM-2. Available in three trim levels: Turismo, Lusso and Veloce, the new MultiJet II engine increases the Alfa MiTo’s credentials as a sporty compact car.

Futuristic, innit? And the winner of the best car manufacturer/hip-hop collaboration of the week award goes to... N-Dubz (that’s the band with Dappy, who’s become sort of famous for his wacky hats!) has just released the third single from their album Against All Odds (which we haven’t heard, but would really, really love to. honest.) And when the Londonbased band was looking for a futuristic car to feature in the video for “Say It’s Over”, they obviously
couldn’t get hold of a DeLorean. So they turned to Renault! Renault provided a Mégane Coupe-Concept, with its dramatic ‘dragonfly-wing’ double doors, fitting the role perfectly as a car set in a future. The collaboration between Renault and NDubz led to the striking two-door starring alongside Dappy, Tulisa and Fazer in the video, filmed at a secret location. They had to keep it secret because there would have been, like, 7 fans trying to get in. At least.
The Earl of March is proud to announce the introduction of a dedicated Manufacturer Preview Day, dubbed the ‘Moving Motor Show,’ as a one-day extension to the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The ‘Moving Motor Show’ will be held within the grounds of
Big Screen Legends
Ferrari 250 California It looks like just a lovely car, but a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder SWB like the one driven by Matthew Broderick in Ferris Bueller's Day Off actually became the most expensive car ever sold at auction! Fortunately the filmmakers destroy a mere replica, not the real thing. (the budget for the film was $6million, less than what one of those Spyder’s now costs!) The film follows high school senior Ferris Bueller, who decides to skip school and spend the spring day in downtown Chicago with his girlfriend Sloane and his best friend Cameron. Ferris persuades Cameron to let them use his father's re-
stored convertible 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California to travel into the city. After two garage attendants take the Ferrari for a joyride, Ferris and his friends retrieve the car. But the car is ruined when Cameron rests himself against the car, which (now off jacks) flies off in reverse and crashes through the glass wall behind the car, landing in a ravine behind the house. There were only 100 of these cars, so it was way too expensive to destroy, so a number of replicas were made. Auto restorationist Mark Goyette designed the kits for three reproductions used in the film.
At the end of filming, Paramount returned the main car to Goyette, with the exhaust crushed and cracks in the body. He rebuilt it, and sold it to a young couple in California. The second car (which crashed into the ravine) ended up at Planet Hollywood in Minneapolis, but dropped off the map along with Planet Hollywood Minneapolis. The third kit disappeared after the film was completed. At the time of filming, the original 250 GT California model was worth $350,000. Since the release of the film, it became the most expensive car ever sold, going at auction in 2008 for $10,976,000.
Goodwood Park as a significant addition to the annual Festival of Speed, which takes place from 2nd-4th July. On Thursday 1st July 2010 new cars buyers will be able to enjoy an exclusive motor show preview day, where they will not only be able to see the very latest
new car models on display, but in many cases also climb aboard and experience the vehicles firsthand at each manufacturer’s invitation. The cars will undertake hundreds of runs on a special evaluation route that includes the world famous Goodwood hill-
climb, following in the wheel tracks of many celebrated racing drivers, including Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button and Sir Stirling Moss. To order advance tickets contact the Ticket Hotline on 01243 755055 or book online at www.goodwood.com

Horsham produced a spirited second half comeback to claim a point against Harrow, while (right) Horsham Crusaders’ young squad have gained promotion from Div 5 Central
Hornets battle back The Harrow hoodoo continues but Horsham may feel that they can, at least, claim the moral victory after overcoming a 2-0 half-time deficit to claim a point at the Earlsmead Stadium through two unlikely goalscorers. The Hornets had not won at Harrow for almost 42 years and the writing appeared to be on the wall,
thanks to first half goals from the home side's Kurt Morlese and Danny McGonigle. But Tony Nwachukwu began the fightback just after the hour mark with only his third goal of the season before Delando Smith bagged the equalising goal, his first for the Hornets, 12 minutes from time. Horsham host Aveley at Gorings Mead this Saturday
at 3pm.
Cowfold Reserves came out on top in the top of the table clash with Rudgwick in Division 3 North. Fold started the game at a high tempo and could have taken the lead within the first couple of minutes but the Rudgwick keeper made a good save to deny Mike Nash. Cowfold continued to cre-
ate some great chances to open the scoring, the best falling to Ant Parsons, who saw his header cleared off the line. Cowfold started the second half brightly, and took the lead when Tom Whiting released Steve Lloyd down the right and his inch perfect cross was meet by Ant Parsons at the far post to head in from an acute angle.
Within five minutes ‘Fold doubled their lead when Nash robbed the centre half and lobbed the keeper from 25 yards. Rudgwick could have got themselves back into the game but their striker failed to take his onoon-one chance. Fold then punished them moments later when the keeper failed to hold on to a Phil Marshall free kick which allowed Parsons to follow up to grab his second. Rudgwick did get a consolation goal in stoppage time to make it 3-1.
A hard fought 2-1 victory for Horsham Crusaders against a stubborn Broadford Bridge side on Saturday, coupled with Slinfold's defeat at Horsham Olympic, ensured Horsham Crusaders won promotion from Division 5 Central with three games to spare. The Crusaders side, made up entirely of 16 and 17 year olds, have enjoyed a fine first season in men's football. However on Saturday they struggled to play their normal free flowing football, and found themselves a goal down after just 15 minutes, when a looping cross shot evaded keeper Billy Greening. Despite having several chances to equalise, Crusaders came up against a Broadford Bridge goalkeeper in inspired form, with Ali Hughes, Jack Mainstone. Adam Parsons and Matt Mason all being denied. Crusaders finally equalised on the stroke of half time when Parsons crossed and Mainstone volleyed home. In the second half it was much of the same, with Crusaders laying siege to the Broadford Bridge goal, however the Broadford
Bridge keeper was simply superb, and it was not until 10 minutes from time that Matt Probin slipped a pass through to Ryan Taylor who dinked the ball over the keeper. Crusaders leave this weekend on a high for a four day Tour of Holland, where they will be taking part in the Easter Open Competition against teams from Holland, Denmark, Sweden, France and Germany.
Horsham Juventus were knocked out of the Division 1 Cup semi Final in a shock 5-2 loss against The Balltree. Balltree went ahead when Juve's Dan Wennigton was nutmegged in the area and Jamie Maddox was beaten at his near post. Juve manage to hold out until half time only a goal down but their luck didn't change and Juve's midfield continued to crumble and soon found them selves 40 down. After a few changes Juve started to play some football and managed to pull a goal back after good work from man of the match Ben Bissett found Josh Archer to smash home. The comeback was on when Captain Neal Jannels volleyed from a Tommy Di Martino corner to make it 4-2 and were unlucky when an Archer free kick just missed the post and Bissett hit the inside of the post. Juve continued to press and were caught out as Balltree hit two more on the break. Juve manager said afterwards: ”I blame Paul 'PJ' Williams for the result as half the team went out to Brighton for his birthday the night before and they didn't get in till 5am!”

Legends ace seals double sponsor deal
David Mott, Director of both ACS Designs and the Mott Butcher partnership, based in Horsham, has taken the fast track in backing local World Champion Legends Driver John Mickel. “Having met John through one of his existing and long term main sponsors, RS Capps Director Mike Shadwell, another local firm based on Dorking, I became Involved in small way in his last season’s racing in the Pickup Truck Series. “With an Invite to travel with him to South Africa in January to take part in the ASA Freestate 500 as part of the team, I witnessed first-hand the drive, determination and professionalism in what was an exciting transcontinental race where John took on the rest of the world and won. “This attitude reflects our own Philosophy at ACS/MBP.” John, Director of Mickel Motorsport Limited and multiple champion said: “It is very special when local business people become partners in my racing as I can provide business to business contacts, branding and marketing all tied up in an exceptionally good day out and it is great to see the local businesses gain from their exposure with my team. “The big bonus with David is that he is now a personal and family friend of mine.” The opening round of the CPC Legends Championship began this weekend At Oulton Park and John is now placed ninth in the Championship following some teething problems. Starting 17th in race one, he quickly made his way through the gaggle of cars and was in the top ten within the first few laps. It looked like John would settle for eighth place in the RS Capp/MTS/Mickel Motorsport car, but a collision with Peter Morton left him 23rd. With the start positions from race 1 reversed, John started in 2nd position, alongside Race legend John Jon Higgins. They ran side by side into turn 1 but John Jon’s Legend proved to be quicker. It was soon clear that John was struggling with technical difficulties and unable to keep pace with the leaders and eventually took the chequered flag in 8th place. A better third and final race saw John climb from 8th on the grid to finish fourth.
Mini mayhem Horsham Rugby Club held its mini festival on Sunday, with teams from across the county taking part. Perhaps the finest team performance from a local perspective was by the Horsham Lions Under 10s team. Having beaten Lewes, Chichester, Midhurst and Jersey in the group stages, Horsham took on Hove in the final, and ran out 3-1 winners (only tries scored points). Having fallen behind to an early try, Oscar Quighley drove over and the changed the momentum of the game. The blisteringly fast Joe Blake ran the length of the pitch to put his team in front, and came close to adding to his tally with some darting runs, but in the end it was Vince Everitt who scored the
third. Coach Rob Stanway praised t h e spirit
Horsham was well represented in the tournament
of the team, and also the Horsham Tigers, who didn’t enjoy the same success as the Lions but
Horsham Under Nines
performed well and cheered on their friends in the final. Horsham Lions Under 12s also played excellently, but were denied a place in the final by a single try. The Lions won all of their games except one, a 0-0 draw against Chichester, who went through by virtue of scoring one more try against inferior opponents in the other group games. It transpired that a Chichester try in the final second of the last group match denied Horsham. Horsham were well represented in all of the age group categories, from Under 7s to under 12s. Other clubs taking part in the festival included Pulborough, Midhurst, lewes, Cranleigh, Chichester, Hove, Crawley, Sutton & Epsom, Jersey and Haywards Heath.

Horsham sweep aside Crawley

The Under 10s Horsham tigers team
Horsham Under 14s played local rivals Crawley and ran out easy winners 45-12 based on a superb first half display. The first half was a procession of points. The forwards dominated possession and all the team showed a good appetite for contact as well as good distribution and swift hands. Crawley did not seem to have an answer to the pace and quality of Jerry Downey or Blaisé Salle who both scored a brace of tries. Further tries followed from the impressive Aaron Boczek and Dan Rapson, who both thrived playing against their old club. With the pack providing good ball it gave the opportunity for Joey Walker and Nic Mathers at half backs to run the show which they did excellently with a good variety of
passing, kicking and intelligent play and, whilst they did not score, were responsible for the excellent shape and pace of the backline in the first half as Horsham scored 38 points. To their credit Crawley seemed to rally in the second half which was a much more even contest with the visitors scoring two good tries to our one by Dan White. Overall it was a thoroughly satisfying performance from a rapidly improving team. Horsham: Fergus MurphyHunt; Henry Seear; Sam Boylett; Aron Lewer; Daniel Rapson; Tom Symes; Matt Lane-Miller; Blaisé Salle; Josiah Walker; Nic Mathers; Felix Chapman; Jack Cox; Aaronn Boczek; Jerry Downey; Dan White; Fraser Latimer; Rob Chandler; Dan Poat; Cameron Howes-Yarlett; Connor Peppard

Super Sh ana Scores 8 Shana Cox eyes up another goal in a scintillating individual performance on Sunday, scoring eight of Sparrows’ goals in a 9-2 victory (All pictures by Chris Woolgar)
The Big Match Report by Nick Hind Ladies Football Horsham Sparrows v Crawley Down Shana Cox produced a display of top draw finishing to help her Sparrow’s Ladies to a 9-2 home win over Crawley Down Ladies. Cox ruled the line in style, bagging herself an astonishing 8 goals as she ran an under strength Crawley team ragged. An away team that could only muster 9 players fought bravely for the full 90 minutes, and in patches actually competed on level terms, but against 11 fired up Sparrows, it was always going to be a case of damage limitation for the Crawley Ladies. The Sparrows showed their intent right from the off, with Matilda Hallgren, in particular,
making headway on the right, whipping in a plethora of crosses as she enjoyed the extra space on offer. But a dogged Crawley held firm at the back, expertly marshalled by Jodie Jacobs, who came to clear time after time. It was time for the Sparrows to take advantage of the extra players and space with quick switches of play, but it was a simple ball from the back that allowed Shana Cox in for the opener. Beating the offside trap, Cox coolly rounded the keeper and slotted home for a 1-0 lead. The home side dominated the possession and territory stats, but their eagerness to
swarm forward left a high back line exposed to the ball over the top. Crawley’s Rachel Halliday almost exploited this with one of Crawley’s only chances of the half, but was unable to keep her shot down as she blazed over from 18 yards. Sarah Rose delivered the perfect near post cross for Shana Cox to convert , making it 2-0, and Cox added another moments later, taking on 2 defenders before slashing home a 1st half hat-trick. Only a few minutes in to the second period and the prolific Shana Cox had grabbed her 4th. Showing quick feet to dance her way into the box, she had no trouble in placing the shot into the right hand corner. Crawley did get one back through the talented Jodie Jacobs, who beat off a host of Sparrows before slotting past a stranded Marie Munday to make it 4-1. But Jacob’s natural ability
was out-shone by the sharp shooting of Shana Cox. The striker looked almost slightly embarrassed as she bagged goals 5, 6, 7 and 8 in quick succession, before unselfishly teeing up team mate, Matilda Hallgren, whose easy tap in made it 9 up as the flighty Sparrows ran riot.
Rachel Halliday converted a late consolation from the spot for the visitors. And it was the least they deserved after putting in a gallant display for the shirt. Player/Manager, Jodie Jacobs, agreed, saying: ‘It was a determined performance, full of character, I can’t fault the
team effort.” After the game the modest Sparrow’s striker, Shana Cox, explained: “First and foremost, it was a great team effort’. However, great pride beamed from ear to ear when acknowledging, and of course, it’s great to be able to contribute 8 for the team at the same time!”
Horsham Sparrows Ladies are very keen to recruit some new players for next season as a number of their existing team will be leaving to go to university in September.
If you are interested in joining them or if you would just like to come to one of their training sessions, please contact either Helen or Graeme on 01403 274533, who will be very pleased to hear from you.

Horsham Under 12s (All pics by John Lines)
Bigg show of character The Under 12 Hornets brought the club its first piece of silverware in 2010, coming from behind to defeat divisional rivals Highdown Saints 'A' 2-1 in the final of the Arun & Chichester League Cup at Arundel. Horsham had already met Highdown twice in the league this season, going down to 1-2 and 2-3 defeats to the current leaders, and they were behind after just 10 minutes. A slow, nervy start from Richard Wootton's side saw them punished when the Saints' striker turned the defence and drilled a low shot past the goalkeeper. This was the wake up call that was needed and Horsham started to close down and put pressure on the ball more consistently. Highdown had chosen to try and man mark the dangerous Finn Bigg for the
duration but this left space for James Tilley who received the ball and levelled the scores on 22 minutes with a 15 yard drive that flew in to the roof of the net. Horsham's midfield continued to work tirelessly and their hard work was rewarded with a second goal when the ball was worked out to Tilley again who crossed low into the box. Bigg lost his marker and lifted the ball over the 'keeper to make it 2-1 just before the break. Horsham put in an excellent second half display and, although no further goals were scored, both 'keepers were tested. Lewis Reeves was impeccable at the back, winning the ball time and time again off the Highdown striker and only a last ditch tackle prevented Hugo Cowen from extending
the lead after collecting the ball in his own half and carrying the ball into the oppositions 18 yard box. The Hornets were full of running until the end and Ali Kerr was only inches away from making it 3-1 with a sweet drive that just went over the bar from 20 yards but the whole squad played their part on the day and deserved the win.
Horsham Sparrows Girls Under 12's travelled to Oakwood on Sunday. After last week’s performance in the Cup Final, expectations were high and a victory today
would lift Sparrows back up to 3rd place in the league. Hope worked really hard up front, linking up very nicely with Charlotte and almost found the back of the net on a couple of occasions. Sparrows had more half chances in the second half and on another day, a few of t h e m would have been buried in the back of the n e t . L e g s w e r e getting tired, mainly due to the heavy pitch so Ellie and Natasha came
on to keep our work rate going. Keyannea then made one of her trademark determined runs into the penalty area which ended up with a very fine goal. Oakwood threw caution to the wind and lead an onslaught of attacks but found Sparrows’ ‘keeper Fran in good form. If any Year 7 girl would like to join Sparrows as the team move from 7-a-side to 11-aside, please contact Chris Cooper at chris@chronweb.fsnet.co.uk or 07906469325
Horsham Youth Under-14s travelled to chichester City in their third double header of the season. It took a bit time before Horsham worked the ball down the left flank and George Hole put in a good cross, which the
Chichester defence could not deal with, and Zak Comber headed in at the far post. With the Horsham defence working hard and keeping out everything coming at them it stayed 1-0 in the first game. In the second game it was much of the same but eventually Horsham made the breakthrough when Jacob Waller put in a corner from the left which went to the far post and with a great right foot strike Tom Frankland put Horsham one up. Chichester kept coming forward for an equaliser and Horsham's goal keeper Lewis Blaney produced a great save, pushing the ball over the bar. Horsham made the game safe when Connor Cushing ran through the Chichester defence and pulled the ball back for Zak to ensure a 2-0 win for Horsham.
