Roy Whiting may not live to be 82 years old and experience the hope of freedom, 40 years after he murdered eight-year-old schoolgirl Sarah Payne.

But nonetheless, a decision on Wednesday to reduce Whiting’s minimum sentence from 50 to 40 years will add to the suffering of Sarah’s family.

It is 10 years since Sarah was snatched from her grandparents’ house in Kingston Gorse and murdered b y

Whiting, pictured below, who was born in Horsham but lived in Crawley.

Sarah’s body was found on 17th July 2000, 16 days after she disappeared, 10 yards away from the A29 between Pulborough and Billingshurst.

It only took five minutes for a High Court Judge to reduce the sentence to what he called an “appropriate” term, but after the brief hearing, Sarah’s mother, Sara Payne, spoke of her disappointment.

Sara, using a stick to help her walk after she suffered a stroke at Christmas, said: “It’s not a terrible thing - it could have been a lot worse. We’ll carry on as before. He is in prison and he can’t hurt any children.

“All the time it was 50 years my family and I could relax as there was no chance of him getting parole.

“We are still reeling from this.

“The family obviously doesn’t get a parole - there is no end to this (for us). This is our lives from now on.

World Cup wristbands

Ready for the big Kick-off...

Here’s your chance to be the most patriotic child in Swan Walk!

Swan Walk can help your family support England’s World Cup campaign with Free ‘Come On England’ Child Safe wristbands.

As part of the nationwide Child Safe programme, free wristbands are always available from the dispensers at the lifts in the centre where the Childsafe number is also displayed.

Call this number if you lose your child and you will be put directly in touch with the security and cctv teams, where help is at hand.

“We are delighted to be able to offer these patriotic England wristbands to families with young children visiting the centre this World Cup summer”; said Gill Buchanan, Centre Manager. “There are lots of World Cup products available in the stores throughout the centre and these free wristbands will help keep children safe whilst out shopping and at other busy places”.

Chris Woolgar captured this image from the Chesworth Rovers fun day on Saturday Homes, pubs and clubs are counting down the minutes to 7.30pm on Saturday night, when of course, Sense and Sensibility is showing on Channel 4.

On the other channel, England will be facing the USA in the opening match of their World Cup campaign.

Horsham has caught football fever - many youngsters at the Chesworth Rovers fun day on Saturday were requesting a St George’s Cross at the facepainting stool (above) and there was no shortage of England shirts at Kidz Stuff in Horsham Park at the weekend (below).

Even the MP, Tottenham Hotspur fan Francis Maude, is excited. He said: “I won’t claim to know any more than the next man, and most pundits say Brazil or Spain, but I think England

have a realistic chance.

“It’s a good team and if (they stay injury free) we have a good chance. As a Tottenham fan I think that Lennon, Defoe and Crouch will be crucial.

“Hopefully I’ll be watching at home with my 19-year-old son, who’s fanatical!”

Most of us though will be down the pubs, who’ve had a difficult time in the last couple of years, and for whom the tournament comes not a second too soon. They’re all competing for business - and it seems no longer good enough to have just one screen; you need four big ones - great news for us punters!

The Shelley Arms in Broadbridge Heath has a bouncy castle and a VIP area (see page 22) while The Bear in Market Square is serving up free food during England matches (See page 21).

The Bedford in Station Road is offering a waitress service as it prepares for a bumper World Cup, boosted by its seven screens.

B52s in P i r i e s Place and T h e

Queens Head, under new management who have installed new screens, are also getting into the mix with a range of promotions.

The Cock Inn in Southwater is hosting match day barbecues (Page 30) while the Kings Arms in the Bishopric is showing big screen action in both of the bars and in the newly refurbished back garden which has just opened just opened.

Another good spot to watch the games is The Holbrook Club, in perhaps more comfortable surroundings.

Wherever you choose to watch the game, please remember that standing up on the table and knocking over 16 pints while celebrating a goal might make you feel good, but make you ultimately unpopular. Especially after the fourth goal...

So why is he in The Resident?

Well, the Great British Circus is in Dial Post, at the West Sussex Showground, directly next to Old Barn Nurseries. It arrived on Tuesday and is due to stick around until 20th June Oh yes, I saw the posters..

I know, how do they get them inside the windows of those empty stores?

Sellotape. Anyway, why is this circus grabbing headlines?

This circus always attracts controversy. Animal rights campaigners, including the Born Free Foundation based in Horsham, want the circus shut down as they are very much opposed to its use of animals.

I thought circuses with animals were banned?

No, not yet, despite the calls.

Horsham District Council won’t allow it to take place on their land, but this is private land, so the show goes on. Born Free has called on the new coalition government to ban circuses with animals in the light of what they call “undeniably strong public opinion”.

And they’re not the only ones...

Wherever the circus goes it always attracts the same headlines, and protesters at the entrance to each site. It means they don’t have to advertise much, but at the same time the campaigners put a lot of people off. Even their presence can intimidate people into simply driving by...

So what is it the protesters are so upset about?

Mainly the way animals are treated and used.

In a statement, Born Free said: “A trip to such a circus may be a brief moment of fantasy for us but represents just one more day in a lifetime of confinement for the animals involved, w i t h sporadic access to ‘exerc i s e ’ cages, rep e a t e d transport and lengthy housing in off-view winter quarters.” They urge peo-

ple not to go.

And what do they say at the circus?

They don’t feel they’re doing anything wrong. Martin, who has run the circus for many, many years, said: “All of our animals are bred in the circus.

Our lions and tiger are tenth generation, and live until they are about 20, far longer than in the wild. To see even an 11year-old tiger in the wild is rare.”

So they live longer - but are they happy?

Animal mind reading is beyond me. But the animals are treated to regular exercise. The horses and camels roam in the fields. Obviously the tigers are in cages as you can’t have them strolling around the Sussex countryside, but their exercise area isn’t so small that it’s painful to see. Martin said: “The reason they live longer is because of the diet we provide and the regular exercise we give Continued on Page 5

them. The circus care is actually better than a zoo.”

And these people love animals?

No doubt about it. They’re actually a really nice bunch running the circus. Many of them have grown up with the circus

- it’s all they know, and the animals are their colleagues.

So who do we believe?

You just make up your own mind. If you don’t agree with using animals in circuses, stay away.

So The Resident has seen it?

We went to see it on Wednes-

day evening at Dial Post. There was less than 20 people in the crowd. Martin said that it always gets popular towards the end of the run at a venue. But you could argue that it’s proof that most people agree with Born Free, who said that it’s time “this objectionable and outdated practice is consigned to the history books”.

Elephants are not a part of the show this year, but have featured before

What did you think of the circus?

Putting aside any moral issues, it’s an incredible spectacle.

Seeing a man make five Royal Bengal Tigers roll over isn’t something you see everyday.

For sure, without the animals there’s little on offer - although the trapeze finale is entertaining.

What other animals do they have?

There are camels, reindeer, llamas, and horses including a scene stealing miniature horse called Sampson. They also have a two year old white tiger that is being trained but is not in the current show. Martin said that this year’s show had been hit by the recession. “I’ve not got elephants this year as they’re too expensive”, he said.

Did the animals look well treated?

Unfortunately, I’m unqualified to judge on that, but to an untrained eye they appeared in good health. Martin said:”You don’t shoot the goose that lays the golden egg, do you? We’ve reared these animals since birth, so they represent a sizeable investment, so of course

you’re going to look after them.”

How’s it still going with so few spectators?

Well, it could be that here in the South East we’re more anti-animal circus than anywhere else. The circus staff say that around here it is worse than anywhere else because of the presence of RSPCA, Born Free, students from Brighton and a number of campaign groups.

Is that right?

You can only assume it is, otherwise it can’t be financially viable! Across Europe such circuses are still fairly common, and enjoy far greater success and are really only just starting to attract the same kind of protests as the Great British Circus. Nearly all of Martin’s family have followed his lead, and his son Martin Jnr has been very successful in Germany. The Resident was shown a picture of him in audience with the Pope.

Will I feel intimidated if I go?

Martin said that it’s “very difficult for a housewife with a pushchair to walk past the campaigners calling her every

name under the sun.” For what it’s worth, other than a presence, we’ve not seen any such tactics deployed by the protesters, although just by being there we know, they know and the circus knows they put a lot of would-be customers off.

But Mr Lacey’s not quitting ?

No way - animals are all he knows. This isn’t a man who can give it up and get an office job at RSA. So this looks set to continue even if most peopledon’t like it.

And do that not?

Will Travers, CEO of the Born Free Foundation, said: “94% of those who responded to a recent public consultation organised by the previous Government called for an end to the use of wild animals in circuses. Mr Lacey, however, remains defiant in the face of such public opinion, belittling and ignoring the justifiable concerns of many worried citizens.”

Shannon Woodvine looks at the work of one Horsham’s most intriguing painters, Angela Brittain

Capturing people power

The Cake Stall by Angela Brittain

freeman brothers

Some of you may capture moments of your life with a camera, others will simply imbed the image in their memory.

But for one local, it’s all about a paintbrush, a few blobs of oil or acrylic paint and an easel.

After moving to Horsham last year, contemporary narrative artist Angela Brittain is a regular on the art circuit. She is a true original in her artistic interpretation of social interaction and individual emotion, displaying a distinct knack for encompassing a range of emotions, thoughts and experiences in one remarkable painting.

Angela’s urge to become an artist first stemmed from her father who had to abandon his dream of becoming an artist due to the economic and cultural struggles of the Second World War. He encouraged Angela to go to art school, a move that determined her future career. With her father’s support, Angela gained a design and art diploma at Epsom School of Art

The Waltz, a captivating painting by Angela Brittain from me. Bringing it back and keeping calm when it starts to go haywire gives me sympathy for Van Gogh! And be warned, being an artist is not the path to a healthy bank balance, but it’s exceptionally fulfilling!”

Other times a painting just comes together, like ‘The Waltz’, and almost flies off the canvas. Angela said: “My inspiration for this painting was a line by Mark Twain, ‘a glimpse of a confused and whirling multitude of people and above them a row of distracted fiddlers’. The challenge was to create an Italian flavour, the movement of the dancers and the tension between those taking part.” And believe me, she does this to perfection.

There’s no quick fix to achieving such stunning pieces of fine art. Angela’s technique is one of great complexity, requiring the most patient and methodical of minds. She first chooses her subject and produces a colour sketch. Once re-

and embarked on careers in graphic design, illustration and marketing before she finally settling down with her paint and canvas.

Like an entire comic strip condensed into one frame, each of her paintings tells a fascinating story using a careful balance of colour and composition – depicting glorious scenes from myth, experience and literature.

Angela’s interest in the interaction of people and their diverse takes on the same situation is a popular theme of her work. Her 'Fractions' series was motivated by the different perspectives people have whilst in shared circumstances; it’s in these paintings that her curiosity for the wit and interplay between people is at its most powerful.

The inspiration behind Angela’s affordable and vibrant creations comes sometimes from a personal observation, a song lyric or line in a poem, but much of her work takes direct inspiration from the local area, like the deliciously crafted ‘The Cake Stall’, which uses colour and composition to express the emotions of two women working at a cake stall at last year’s Horsham Fun Day. To the untrained eye it may look as though Angela created her paintings with little or no difficulty; but she, like most of us, struggles with her demons.

She said: “Sometimes a painting runs away

fined, she creates a full-size drawing and transfers it to canvas. A base wash of the most repeated colour is put down, and with a limited palette and accents of colour, she puts brush to canvas.

Sounds like a long process, but the hard work certainly pays off. Every delicately placed stroke is worth the finished product, and I for one would happily hang one above my mantle piece, another in my hallway and maybe one more above my bed.

A member of the West Sussex Art Society, Angela is due to exhibit in Cambridge, London, Chichester, Cranleigh and Teddington later this year.

She is also helping to market the Horsham Open Studios event this June where, along with many other artists, she will be demonstrating her skills. www.angelabrittain.co.uk

Horsham Artists' Open Studios, held on the weekends on 19/20th and 26/27th June, allows visitors an insight into an artist's working practice, through visiting artists in their studio spaces or viewing finished work in exhibition spaces.

This is the first year when Horsham artists have decided to organise the event by themselves.

This is your chance to tour the countryside from Steyning to Warnham, as well as find venues across Horsham, enjoying the work of the best artists and makers in the area as they open their homes, studios and gardens.

Good Stuff...

Friday was a success (Pic: T Phillips) In the lead article here, the Resident will question the value for money, but for many who attended the Access for All day on Friday, it’s a bargain.

And you could argue that that’s more important than anything else...

The day, for people with special needs and their carers, had everything enjoyed by Saturday and Sunday visitors, and despite the inevitably lower attendance, all those involved were 100% committed to giving a great show.

Another Fab?

It could well have backfired, as I don’t think I’ll ever be able to eat another Fab ice lolly for as long as I live, but the promotions team from Fab were fantastic.

On a scorching Saturday, you could barely walk ten yards without being offered another lolly, and by a team who never lost their enthusiasm - always serving with a smile, even after walking around the arena for the 1,687th time.

Lower turnout than expected meant that many children who escaped their parents’ attention could have had 20!

We saw an ice cream truck turn up on Saturday, only to give up soon after defeated by the Fab team!

Local talent

The talent show was a Thriller The Talent Shows held on Saturday and Sunday were a great success, with some very entertaining performances, including a riveting Michael Jackson dance medley!

On Sunday, there was a clean sweep for youngsters from Act Too Arts Academy.

Rhianna Pascoe took first prize with 'Here I Am' by Demi Lovato, with Nathanael Landskroner (singing 'I'll Stand By You' by The Pretenders) and Reagan Muir ('Only The Good Die Young' by Queen) taking second and third.

Dave Benson Phillips gave great encouragement, although seemed stumped on Sunday when one of the young girls said her name was Minty. “Your names Minty?”

John continued: “We are disappointed with the numbers overall. I thought Friday and Saturday were too hot and a lot of people would have headed down to the coast.

“But Friday was a big success.

Numbers trebled this year, which was really down to better involvement with local special needs groups and organisations.

It was perhaps a little ambitious of the organisers to try and arrange five world records, and two were pretty much nonrunners.

The three-legged race, part of a nationwide world breaking attempt, failed to attract much interest. And not even the lure of a free cinema ticket could convince many children to dress up as story book characters. They were few and far between. Many tickets eventually found themselves into the Goody bags after the gunge fight.

Well done to those who made an effort.

There are a number of options being considered for the future. it could be that new partners are involved next year, and perhaps Horsham District Council may increase their involvement in the festival.

A different pricing structure may also be looked at, and from an outsider’s view it would appear that that will be crucial for the future success of Kidz Stuff.

John said: “My view would be to half the price and double the number of people there.

“If you make it a free event you

get loads of people turn up but it’ll be unpleasant - there would be long queues for everything.”

Anna Williamson, star of Toonattik and the next pantomime at the Capitol in Horsham, was due to arrive at Kidz Stuff on Saturday.

But she never showed, and on the day organisers had no answer as to why. It transpired she was very unwell, and has said that she will be happy to appear at a future Rotary Cluborganised event.

Wet and Wild!

It was only supposed to go on for two minutes...

But after 20 minutes, the sponge fight at Kidz Stuff on Saturday was still going strong.

The event created a world record, as there isn’t officially one already as it stands!

The organisers contacted the Guinness Book of World Records who suggested organising a water balloon fight. But the record for that stands at about 3,000 people, with 60,000 balloons, and that was never really on the cards for Horsham so instead the organisers went for the sponges.

It was great fun for the 183 people taking part in the Wet Sponge Fight.

It had been very difficult for the children (and the stewards, who almost triggered a false start by

Saturday’s wet sponge fight was a riot (all pictures by Toby Phillips) messing around and proceeded to do exactly the same thing in Sunday’s gunge fight!) to stand with their backs against the rails and wait for the ‘official’ bit to take place.

It was even harder to do as the were told to and “walk,

don’t run!” to the sponge buckets.

Needless to say, they must have mis-heard that bit!

With many wearing yellow waterproof ponchos, it was 20 minutes of total chaos, as grown ups and children mixed in for a tearsfree sponge spectacular.

Bun fight!

It’s one of those events where you’re not really sure what to expect - hundreds of children with special needs taking part in a bun fight.

But it turned out to be a great success, with 253 people (many of them in wheelchairs) taking part in the

event on Friday to break the World Record.

On a scorching hot day, the buns had dried out and hardened, meaning that perhaps the bun battle could have been a recipe for a bloody disaster, but it was a great end to a thrilling day for all!

A sticky situation On the whole, Sunday was a disappointing finale to Kidz Stuff.

The smiles on the faces of the organisers and those manning the stands were tinged with disappointment at the low turnout, while for those of us that had been there on previous days, Fab lollies had started to lose their appeal!

But it did all at least end with another great event - the gunge fight.

It was probably the messiest event held to date, with the slime making for a hazardous clean-up operation.

But for two minutes (and then inevitably another 15 after the fight had officially finished) it was a riot.

The record attempt, again compered by Dave Benson Phillips who is no stranger to the gunge (neither is your writer incidentally - I

was on DBP’s show Get Your Own Back in the early 90s and was gunged, as was my mum!)

There was a bit of confusion, with some children alm ost starti n g t h e

fight before the attempt had been officially verified by solicitor Kathryn Hulmes of Horsham based Rawlinson Butler.

About 200 people took part in the fight, with very few of those watching on the outside escaping at least a little of the gunge.

As you can see from the marvellous pictures here, those taking part got covered, but it was not amusing for many of the dads who had to try to ensure that the kids didn’t get the back seats of the Audi covered in slime.

The Rotary Club helped out as best as they could by means of a hose, but those involved with have needed a lengthy bath.

Weird news from Planet Earth

Gentle bus rides

A bus company in China has launched a new 'drive safely' campaign - by hanging big bowls of water next to their drivers.

The Longxiang Public Bus Company in Changsha, Hunan province, says drivers must drive gently to avoid spilling any water.

Bus drivers are expected to ensure the bowls are still full when they finish their shift, re-

ports the Xiaoxiang Morning Post. And the company warns drivers that CCTV footage will be studied to make sure they do not top up the bowls.

A bride and groom hired a £130,000 Ferrari to drive themselves to their wedding reception in style - then smashed into a traffic light.

The couple - who cannot be named for legal reasons - had spent £500 to rent the 180mph Testarossa for an hour so they could arrive at the bash in style at Treviso, northern Italy.

But after going just a few yards in the supercar the groom swerved off the road straight into a traffic light.

A pedestrian injured by a motorist while following an online route has filed a lawsuit claiming Google Inc. supplied unsafe directions.

Lauren Rosenberg filed a lawsuit on Thursday seeking more than $100,000 in U.S. District Court in Utah. It also named a motorist she says hit her.

Rosenberg used her phone in January to download directions from one end of Park City to the

other.

The case has become a sensation on websites with critics assailing the woman for ignoring her own safety to blindly follow online directions.

An elephant brought commuter traffic to a halt when she went for a stroll through a Swiss city centre.

Sabu the elephant escaped from her circus home when she broke free while being loaded into her trailer.

The four tonne animal then went for a dip in Lake Zurich, before walking into the nearby

city centre.

Startled motorists gave Sabu, 26, a wide berth as she strolled across Zurich's one way system.

QE2 Gearing up for Thriller Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee School’s performance of a Shakespearean comedy with a Michael Jackson influence, has been chosen to be shown in London.

Shakespeare for Schools Festival (SSF) chose the Horsham school to perform ‘Twelfth Night’ at its 10th anniversary evening, being held

at the famous Lyric theatre in Shaftesbury Avenue, on Monday July 5th.

Led by teacher Sue Jay, 22 performers aged between 11 and 19, they worked to adapt the play in an inventive and unique retelling, complete with a violent storm, yellow stockings and a beautiful, moving double wedding. Plus

there is a ‘Thriller’ dance routine.

Peter Griffiths, West Sussex County Council Cabinet Member for Education and Schools, said: “Shakespeare’s immortal first line ‘If music be the food of love, play on’ is brilliantly re-invented by the youngsters from Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee School.

“The work is imaginative and inventive, challenging the students to reach their full potential and have fun.”

Sue said: “We are all feeling very proud and excited. We will be going in with all guns blazing and including a short ‘Thriller’ dance sequence especially prepared for the occasion.”

Payne family ‘reeling’ Continued from Page 1

“This is not about Roy Whiting - it’s about Sarah.

The man is a danger to children, and will remain a danger to children all the time he lives and breathes.”

Whiting, 51, was not present to hear the decision on the number of years he must spend behind bars before he can apply for parole.

It meant Sara, who has received an MBE for the tireless work she has done in promoting children’s safety since the death of her daughter, did not have to face him in court.

Whiting was jailed for life in 2001 for the kidnap and murder of Sarah, who would now be 18 years old.

The 50-year tariff was set by the then-Home Secretary David Blunkett.

That term has now been reduced by Mr Justice Simon at the Royal Courts of Justice, but he stressed the sentence on Whiting remained imprisonment for life and he would be de-

tained "unless and until the parole board is satisfied

“He will remain a danger to children all the time he lives and breathes.”

that he no longer presents a risk to the public".

He added: "Even if the parole board decides then, or at some time in the future, to authorise his release, he will be on licence for the rest of his life.”

On 4 August 2002, Whiting was attacked with a razor by another prisoner while fetching hot water at Wakefield Prison. Another convicted killer, Rickie Tregaskis, was found guilty of carrying out the slashing which left Whiting with a six-inch scar on his right cheek.

Heroic Howie the hornet takes third The Mascot Olympics - the only Olympics that really count - took place at the weekend, and Howie the Hornet produced a fine performance for Horsham FC. Despite allegations of drug taking - one rival noted his big “bug eyes” while another said Howie appeared to be constantly “buzzing”, Howie (aka Matt Haynes) finished third.

These mascot events have moved on in recent years - it’s no longer just a running race. It’s more of a Decathlon, with the mascots needing to reach the fitness levels of a Formula One driver.

Okay, maybe you won’t see them all running along the beach at 6am every day, but it has become a more competitive event.

Three years after finishing second in the inaugural event, Howie was aiming for top spot. The weather was hot and humid but this didn’t deter Howie from doing his best to bring back the winner’s trophy.

Each event saw the top six mascots scoring points towards an overall total with rosettes awarded for first and second and most entertaining mascot in each event.

The Bin the Boot challenge was the first event in which each mascot had to throw football boots into different scoring bins.

Howie managed to score 24 points to take 5th place. He did win the most entertaining mascot prize for this event after getting his head stuck in a bin.

The Ball Dash went better with Howie progressing from his heat to the

final. The event comprised of mascots running to fetch a ball and returning to the start line to score a goal before sprinting to the finish.

The effects of having run the final heat told though as Howie could only manage 4th place.

The third event saw local youngsters take 10 penalties at each mascot in goal. Howie only let in 3 goals but this wasn’t enough for a top 6 finish.

Things got better for Howie in the 4th event which was the Red Card Drama. Each mascot had to convince the judges that they were the innocent party in a foul before performing their best celebration dances.

Howie excelled and the judges decided that his moonwalk and break dancing were worthy of victory.

The snowboard balancing machine event was a disaster for Howie, but he regained his composure for the final event, the Obstacle Course, and a scintillating run saw him race home in 2nd place.

All that was left was the presentation ceremony and Howie found that he had been pipped to a top two finish by H’Angus from Hartlepool FC who finished 2nd and Chaddy the Owl from Oldham Athletic FC, who won the event.

Howie was over the moon with his 3rd place finished and celebrated with a lap of honour and a pizza before resting his weary wings and settling down for a snooze.

Howie would just like to say thanks to everyone for their messages of support and is already looking forward to next year’s event.

The League of Friends of Horsham Hospital, one of Horsham’s most successful charities, is seeking a new honorary treasurer.

Audi stolen

Police are appealing for information after a black Audi RS4 saloon was stolen from Lambs Farm Road, Horsham, during a burglary at around 2am on Tuesday 1st May. The keys were stolen from inside the house and used to steal the car from the driveway.

Detective Sergeant Steve Rigby said: "The house is believed to have been targeted due to the expensive, high powered car parked outside the address.”

The car was recovered in Dartford.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Sussex Police on 0845 60 70 999 quoting serial 90 of 1/6.

Last chance salon for hairdressers Friends Reaching Out, a Horsham charity, is looking to find a local salon or several salons that may want to help fund a project for three girls in Uganda that have just qualified as hairdressers.

The Horsham based charity has been looking after children in Uganda for over 15 years.

Their purpose is to feed, clothe, house and educate orphan children.

We have two orphanages which are based in a rural district of Uganda.

Steve Fishpool, pastor of Christian Life Centre in Horsham, visits twice a year to see the children and check on the project.

He said: “When we first started working in this area the children were in a very poor state. They had no decent clothes to wear and food was difficult to obtain because they had little or no money at all.

“So we have been able to buy land and provide food for the children and also build two houses which look after 20 children supervised by two housemothers.

“We also have a school on site which caters for primary children.

Secondary and higher level education takes place in the next town.

“Many of our children are being sponsored by people in the UK so that they can attend university and vocational courses.

“Over the years children have qual-

Steve thought it would be a good idea to ask local salons in Horsham to help with this project.

The girls need the equivalent of £1,000 to set themselves up in business in Kampala. That amount will cover the cost of equipment, shop rent, products and general running cost associated with starting the business.

Steve said: “As an established charity we have representatives who run and manage the project on the ground for us in Uganda.

They will make sure any money raised will be spent responsibly.”

“This hairdressing salon in Kampala will help the newly qualified girls to become independent and to begin to put back into the project from which they have been helped.”

Friends Reaching Out are also

looking to upgrade the existing basic school, having just bought some land so that they can build a brick building to replace the basic wooden structure which has fallen down several times during monsoons.

The need is great and although charity workers have been able to go some way to help and see the community change there is still a great need and many children that need help.

Motorists probed for views on roads

Sakakini

Left: I wonder if anyone mentions potholes!

R1CH B055

Your Local Jeweller & Pawnbroker West Sussex County Council is taking part in a major national survey to find out how people feel about local roads and transport.

West Sussex is one of dozens of local authorities to sign up to the National Highways and Transport Public Satisfaction Survey.

A questionnaire is being sent to thousands of randomly selected West Sussex residents this month.

The study will cover all aspects of local highway and transport services from the condition of roads and pavements to the quality of local bus services.

Market research specialist, Ipsos MORI, is carrying out the survey.

This is the first year that West Sussex has taken part in the survey, which has been running nationally for three years.

Deputy Leader of the County Council, Lionel Barnard, who has responsibility for Highway and Transport issues, said: “This survey will provide a wealth of information on travel behaviour, how people use different services and what they think about our roads, public transport and walking and cycling routes.

“It will also helps us to find ways to improve our services by not only understanding the needs of our local residents better, but also by looking at the results from other areas of the country.”

Until now West Sussex has carried out its own annual Household Travel Survey. Previous results from this survey have shown some positive trends in West Sussex. These include slight increases in sustainable methods of transport, such as walking, cycling or public transport, and decreases in car use, particularly by parents on the school run.

Results from the previous Household Travel Survey have also shown recognition of the impact transport has on the environment and the importance of reducing car use and switching to ‘greener’ modes of transport.

Lionel added: “We would like to thank everyone who has taken part in our previous Household Travel Surveys and encourage as many people as possible to take part in this new survey for 2010.”

Local and national results are expected to be published later in the summer.

Proposals for a 30 mph speed limit in Ashington will be discussed at this month’s meeting of Chanctonbury County Local Committee (CLC).

The Committee will meet on Tuesday June 15, 7pm, at St Mary’s CE Primary School, Link Lane, Pulborough, RH20 2AN. They will consider a proposal to reduce the speed limit for the B2133 Billingshurst Road, Ashington, from 40 to 30 mph.

Committee Chairman Frank Wilkinson said: “There have been concerns about safety on

the road, and we felt it was our duty as the CLC to look into these and see whether the speed limit can be reduced.”

The Committee will also consider whether there should be a speed limit reduction for Clays Hill, Steyning, and proposals for Charlton Street and High Street, Steyning.

30mph proposal

Open your mind

If Derek Acorah didn’t locate a lost loved one, or perhaps whetted your appetite for more, Tony Stockwell is at the Capitol on 29th September.

Psychic Medium Tony is not a new kid on the block and during his 20 years working as a medium he has constantly striven to improve his game and push the boundaries of his communication. Tickets £18.

Grisly mystery on fright night Take a stroll through the Capitol and you might just feel a shiver down the spine, for these are strange times at the theatre.

Derek Acorah, the TV psychic who is probably best known for his Michael Jackson seance, and subsequent mocking on Harry Hill’s TV Burp, was in Horsham on Wednesday, trying to connect with the dead.

Tony Stockwell, who works along similar lines, is performing soon, and next week Fright Night - a murder mystery - is being shown for three nights.

The ingenious murder mystery stars Neil Roberts, (Rex Buckland in Charmed and Richard in Life Bites), Helen George (Miss Jones in Hollyoaks - why did none of my teachers look like that?) and popular stage actor David Callister.

Frank & Jenny Gilman think

they have found their dream home, a converted chapel in a quiet country village.

The dream soon turns into a nightmare, however, as they are attacked by intruders who seem, for some reason, to be only interested in the contents of the deep freezer.

Why is the spade covered in blood? To whom to do the blood stained clothes in the chimney belong? And why are the locals lying to the Gilmans?

Frank & Jenny investigate and the true horror of their situation soon emerges in this taut and exciting, yet often blackly hilarious, horror thriller.

Performing at The Capitol gives Neil a chance to revisit a venue where he well remembers going to see Sooty when he was a boy.

Neil was brought up in Hor-

sham where his father, who sadly passed away last year, was headmaster at Chesworth Junior School.

Neil, who plays Frank Gilman in NightFright and replaced Paul Opaci, who originally played the part when the tour opened, said: “I had the script for about 10 days, and then I had about three days’ rehearsal.

“Until I was 11 or 12, I lived at Horsham and my dad lived there for the last 30-40 years. It is just rather sad that he can’t come to see me perform in the town.”

His TV work over the last year has seen him star in Life Bites; New Tricks; Doctors and Holby as the cardiothoracic specialist Philip Lawlor.

He also appeared in the hugely successful American television series 'Charmed' as Rex Buckland.

Tarby tells a tale

Jimmy Tarbuck is at the Capitol on 24th September. Tarby, as he is known to millions of TV viewers, is one of the country’s most evergreen performers and a master of light entertainment.

Having successfully spent more than 40 years in showbusiness, Jimmy Tarbuck has hosted numerous television shows, variety shows, chat shows and game shows and hase won him fans far away from his native Liverpool. Tickets £18.50.

Clary camps it up Tickets to the show, presented

by Ian Dickens Productions Ltd, are £15 from the Capitol box Office on 01403 750220

Julian Clary brings his Lord of the Mince tour to the Capitol, on 14th October.

Another win for Kirkland

Paddlethon A Horsham volunteer fundraiser and survivor of breast cancer is calling on local canoeists to turn Southwater Lake pink in a bid to raise money for Cancer Research UK. Barbra Newman, from Southwater is organising a Pink 24-hour Paddlethon at Southwater Country Park starting at 10am on 19th June.

The event is open to all – so find something pink, get a team together or paddle alone to help us raise money for research into breast cancer.

The Manager of Southwater Watersports, Barbra, decided to organise the Paddlethon after she realised there was no such event for people who enjoy paddling.

Barbra said: “We are going to celebrate with a great pink party day with lots of activities on and off the water for all to enjoy. Come and join us, have fun and at the same time support Cancer Research UK.”

Horsham Amateur Boxing Club finished their season on a high with two wins at the Westhill Boxing show in Hastings on Saturday 29th May. Young boxer Danny Kirkland continued his unbeaten record.

Fighting a more experienced boxer from Westhill, he started the fight very composed and was in charge throughout. In the second round his fitness and pure power took over, winning the fight with a unanimous decision.

Both Lee Cole and Shaun S t e p n e y, Danny’s trainers, have been wo rk i n g closely with him all season and

his prospects look promising in next year’s ABA Championships.

At the same show Asa Pearson also continued his unbeaten record this season with a very hard fought bout with a another fighter from the Westhill club.

Asa started the fight looking the better boxer, using his long jab to keep his opponent at bay.

Asa, giving away 20 kilos plus, looked to be in charge going into the 3rd round.

After his opponent took a standing count he came back very strong, shaking Asa with some big punches, but Asa hung on to win by a majority decision.

Alternative Therapy Highlighting the virtues of animal healing A new animal healing clinic has been opened by Sue Newport and Emily Robinson, both qualified animal healers working locally.

They are part of Asentia College of Animal Healing which is developing a BTEC Professional Diploma in Animal Healing in partnership with Plumpton College, starting in January 2011.

“Science shows that healing promotes positive and effective changes in the body, both in animals and people, which restore health in us and our pets.”

Sue and Emily offer a very down to earth approach to healing, taking away the mysticism that surrounds

it and backing it up by scientific evidence that healing works.

As Sue explains, “Science shows that healing promotes positive and effective changes in the body, both in animals and people, which restore health in us and our pets.

It is a holistic therapy that works with the body as a whole, helping to speed up the recovery processes, complementing and not replacing traditional veterinary treatment”.

Both Sue and Emily believe that healing is something anyone can do and run workshops and short courses with their colleague Alison Roberts to introduce healing to pet owners.

The Clinic is held at Hollytree Healing Centre; a small, friendly complementary therapy centre located in Barns Green and set up in 2008 by Sue Fishbourne.

“I set the clinic up to provide a place where clients can relax and enjoy a wide choice of complementary treatments, as a complement to traditional medicine to promote wellbeing.

The therapists working here are

When Merlin had trouble with his back legs, we were worried, especially when an operation was insisted on.

fully qualified and offer alternative ways of dealing with the stresses and strains of modern life.

I am delighted to welcome Sue and Emily here to the Centre and to be able to offer healing to animals as well as their owners”.

Poppy, 14, had surgery earlier this year to remove two malignant tumours from her front legs. One of the tumours was too deep to totally remove. The vet did all she could but Poppy became listless, appeared very depressed and was reluctant to go for even short walks.

Poppy’s owners discussed healing with their vet who supported the idea in a positive manner.

Poppy’s owner says, “Since Poppy’s visits to the Animal Healing Clinic she has discovered a new zest for life. She is still an ‘old lady’ and will have the occasional quiet day, but even friends and family have commented about how well she looks. She is bright eyed, up for walks again and seems to have been lifted by the experience. We are very happy to see her with such a return to good quality of life once more.”

Moths see the light

Neil Henry takes a closer look at the moths at Warnham Nature Reserve On Friday 28 May, between 9pm and midnight, two very bright lights could be seen in the Reserve.

No, the aliens hadn’t landed: It was our ‘Moth Night’ and the lights were from traps set up

by Stuart Card, formerly one of the wardens.

About twenty visitors were introduced to the principles of moth trapping and were able to see some of the huge number of species, which are present at Warnham Local Nature Reserve.

As well as moths, other insects were attracted by the lights and a variety of bats (at least three species) flew overhead.

To most people, moths are the anonymous night-flying grey-brown fluttering insects that occasionally come into our homes.

Certain of these unwelcome visitors lay eggs on our garments and furnishings whilst the resultant larvae eat holes in the fabric. This tends to give

moths in general a very bad press: There are hundreds of moth species in Britain which do not conform to this stereotype.

Many of these have exotic or unusual names, derived from their colours and patterns – such as Angle Shades, Common Wainscot, Hebrew Character, Maiden’s Blush and Ghost Swift.

A few moth species fly during the daytime but the majority are active after dark. Their attraction to a light is well

known: It is thought that they use the moon to navigate, so an alternative light source will attract them.

Once inside the light trap, they are provided with the nooks and crannies of multiple egg-boxes in which to rest.

When the trap is emptied, each moth is carefully transferred from its hiding place to a specimen box of suitable size.

Each moth can then be examined and identified without damage. After closer inspection inside the visitor centre, all the moths were released.

In my last report, I noted the enclosure

The swan family need a bigger car after the new arrivals (all pics: Neil Henry) of the ‘bird feeding station’.

Some visitors took this to mean that they should bring their own food for the birds.

As has been previously mentioned, human food is not very digestible for the birds and there is a plentiful supply of insects, seeds, nuts and grains available for them. Please don’t feed them!

To prevent any misunder-

standings, it has now been renamed the Woodpecker Hide.

Shortly after completion, this hide was targeted by wasps as ideal for nest-building. We now believe that their efforts have been discouraged.

The camera-equipped birdboxes have been busy with two families of Great Tits and one of Bluetits about ready to fly.

Elsewhere on the Reserve,

there are new families for the Swans, Canada Geese, Mallards, Coots, Moorhens and Great Crested Grebes. Well over half of the 50 plus birdboxes have been used, principally by Great Tits and Bluetits.

A pair of Mandarin Ducks also appeared with about nine youngsters. The Harvest Mice continue to thrive. www. friendsofwarnhamlnr.org.uk

Increases ‘unlikely’ House prices rise by 0.2% as signs suggest stagnation

Further evidence has emerged that house prices are stagnating across the UK and even falling in some regions.

The Land Registry says that prices rose by just 0.2% between March and April in England and Wales.

It adds that the annual increase in prices is still buoyant at 8.5%, but these latest monthly figures suggest that prices are unlikely to increase further.

In the month leading up to Home.co.uk’s May Asking Price Index report the mix-adjusted average asking price for homes on the market in England and Wales fell by 0.2%.

Latest figures from the Halifax also show that prices are beginning to fall slightly. According to its latest monthly survey prices fell by 0.4% between April and May. The Halifax says that the annual rate of growth in April was 6.6%.

Martin Ellis, Halifax housing economist, said these latest figures are “in line with our view that house prices will be flat during 2010 as a whole."

An increase in supply as buy-to-let landlords look to sell up and sellers take advantage of price rises during 2009 are key factors in this latest price stabilisation.

The increase in supply is already affecting the number of house sales taking place. The Land Registry added says that during February this year there were 40,502 sales, an increase

of 49% on February 2009’s total of 27,190. These are the latest sales figures the Land Registry has made available.

Mortgage lending is also up, according to the Bank of England.

Between March and April the number of mortgages approved for house purchases rose from 49,008 to 49,871. This is a rise of 2%.

Commenting on the latest Bank of England lending figures, David Whittaker, managing director of Mortgages For Business, said: “The latest lending figures show a slight improvement but progress will be slow this year.

With government austerity measures about to be imposed we won’t see the mortgage market improve radically over the next few months.

“But we won’t see lending fall dramatically either. It’s not going to be a golden year but it could be a lot worse.”

CML's director general Michael Coogan added: "So far this year, house purchase activity has been lower than in the last half of 2009, although this reflects the stamp duty holiday, which boosted activity towards the end of last year and caused the quiet start to 2010.

“Meanwhile, although lower interest rates are benefiting borrowers, they are removing the incentive to remortgage, which is also bearing down on the lending figures.”

He also called on the government to

ensure the forthcoming Budget prioritises support for homeowners, but he conceded that “the fiscal position leaves only limited room for manoeuvre.”

Prices could be hit further in the coming months with buy-to-let experts predicting a more rapid increase in the supply of homes for sales as landlords look to sell up before the government raises capital gains tax.

The coalition government has said i t

plans to raise the tax on non-business capital gains from its current 18% level to "similar or close to those applied to income".

It is believed that this could mean the tax rate for people selling a second home could rocket to as much as 50%.

According to a survey by LSL Property Services 26% of landlords plan to leave the sector and put their homes on the market before the new tax is introduced.

The vast majority of landlords surveyed (90%) oppose the tax hike and seven out of ten landlords will now

reconsider their future investment in property.

LSL added that under the new tax proposals, long-term investors would suffer the most. It says that the average house price has risen from £44,880 to £168,202 over the last 20 years. This means that an investor who bought in 1988 and wanted to sell would be liable for tax on 40% of £113,222 .

Prices may be stagnating, but it remains difficult for first time buyers to reach the Champagne moment

Lack of stock leads to rises

Have a look at Nook

House prices are on the rise because there are not enough sellers to meet the demand on the market, according to one expert.

Timothy Lambert, head of consulting at Ducalian, believes the increase is due to the fact that buyers are having to pay the asking prices on properties as a result of the competition.

He estimated that there is normally six people going for each house, meaning consumers are paying more than they should for the property.

Mr Lambert added: "Prices are rising due to a continued lack of stock on the market and first-time buyers believing that if they don't buy now they will miss the bottom of the market."

However, he suggested that prices will continue to rise throughout the summer due to a new government being in place, but admits the increase will be slow.

This comes after Nationwide announced prices rose by 0.5 per cent month-onmonth in May, with a 12.2 per cent increase being seen since February 2009.

Demand at all time high Kathy Taylor Leaders Local letting specialists Leaders are reporting a rise in the number of landlords wanting to increase their portfolios in Horsham, and in new landlords wishing to enter the buy to let market in these areas.

Leaders’ Senior Manager, Kathy Taylor said: “Confidence in the buy to let market has definitely returned in Horsham; demand for rental accommodation is at an all time high here and rents are rising as a result.

This is prompting investors to take a fresh look at the market. At the same time buy-to-let lenders

are at last beginning to offer more and better buy-to-let mortgage deals, including the much welcomed introduction of some higher loan-to-value products.

“The only dampening factor is the shortage of suitable properties for sale at the moment.

“However, with HIPS being abolished, we are hopeful this may bring more properties onto the sales market in the coming months. Landlords are raring to go now and are feeling frustrated at the lack of properties available to buy at present.”

Leaders report that good quality properties to let are still in short supply in Horsham – partic-

ularly two and three bedroom houses. They have dozens of professional and corporate, fully-vetted tenants registered with them, waiting for suitable properties to become available.

Says Kathy: “Done with the right advice and guidance, buying to let in this area is an excellent long-term investment. A specialist such as ourselves can help you make the best decision when choosing a property to let as we know the local market inside out.”

For advice on renting or letting in your areas, please contact Kathy, Alex or Neil on 21758.

Leaders Limited is delighted to offer To Let this superb brand new four bedroom house which is set in a small development within easy reach of the town centre and station.

The property briefly comprises of; Entrance hall, downstairs cloakroom, spacious lounge, contemporary fitted kitchen / dining room from Paula Rosa with integrated appliances, double aspect master bedroom with en-suite shower room, two further double bedrooms and one single bedroom/study, ceramic

You’ve got to feel for the Italian Moto GP fans - tens of thousands of them went along to Mugello at the weekend to watch one man - Valentino Rossi - and the great man breaks his leg in practice. I’ve never seen so many sad faces in my life. For us to experience such turmoil, we’d have to see Lewis Hamilton run out of fuel whilst leading on the last lap at Silverstone, Andy Murray lose the final of Wimbledon, England crash out of the World Cup to Germany on penalties, our cricketers to lose the Ashes and Ricky Hatton to get beaten up by a girl...all on the same day. Get well soon Vale!

Lexus has again topped the JD Power Survey

Lexus still top of class Well Lexus could do with some good press - the issue of the dodgy brakes with Toyota and Lexus cars severely dented both firm’s reputations.

And a clip of the fatal Lexus crash in America, caused when the brakes failed at 120mph, has been seen by more than a million people on Youtube.

But it seems that owners of Lexus cars in the UK are more than satisfied. The results of the 2010 J.D. Power and Associates/What Car? Vehicle Ownership Satisfaction Study (VOSS) show that for an unprecedented 10th year running Lexus has achieved the overall top ranking.

This means that the luxury brand has outperformed all others in every year since it became eligible for consideration. This independent recognition is all the more appreciated this year, as it coincides with Lexus’s 20th anniversary in the UK Lexus also achieved the top ranking in three out of the study’s four categories: Quality and Reliability, Appeal and Service Satisfaction. Its total index score of

846 was up 12 on last year’s results, placing it 57 points ahead of the industry average.

The study’s findings show the IS Sports Saloon was top-ranked among all compact executive cars, while the RX claimed both the SUV category and the distinction of being the top-ranked model overall for a second time.

Owners of Mazda’s iconic twoseater sportscar gave their cars top-scores for appearance, exterior and interior quality and mechanical reliability, performance, running costs and also for dealer service.

Ultimately, the Mazda MX-5 notched up a satisfaction rating of 82.3 percent - beating the Mercedes-Benz SLK, VW Eos and Audi TT rivals to claim the ‘Bestin-Class’ honours.

The world’s best-selling roadster, the Mazda MX-5, has added another accolade to its many awards by earning the title of ‘Best Sports car’ in the highly-regarded 2010 JD Power vehicle ownership satisfaction survey, published yesterday.

Jaguar XF scooped the title of

best executive model on its JD Power debut, and finished second overall and helped Jaguar to its position as third out of 27 manufacturers – an improvement of 13 points from 2009.

The Kia cee’d achieved a stunning debut result of 4th overall in the Study, with a score of 83.8 per cent, finishing just behind luxury vehicles from Lexus and Jaguar.

The cee’d also topped the ‘Lower Medium Car’ segment ahead of vehicles such as the BMW 1 Series and the Škoda Octavia.

Honda also gave a good showing, with its popular Jazz finished first in its class yet again, making it

an amazing seven years in a row and an unbroken record since the supermini was first included in the 2004 results.

The Accord finished fifth in the overall model ranking table, making it Honda’s highest achieving model. Jazz finished seventh overall, with CR-V in ninth place.

The J.D. Power and Associates/What Car? VOSS was based on more than 17,000 on-line interviews with UK owners of cars that were on average two years old.

A mystery businessman from Chelmsford ha bought the personalised registration ESS 3X for a “bargain” price of £6,520.

Immediately after winning his prize with a final bid of £5,100, the delighted Essex-based man - who wanted to remain anonymous - declared he would have spent another £15,000 in order to get his “perfect plate”.

The total amount paid includes VAT, Buyers’ Premium and Assignment Fee.

Ford’s sales soar

Ford's car and commercial vehicle ranges recorded significant sales gains during May to retain the blue oval brand's UK market lead.

As well as overall UK market leadership in cars and commercials, a position Ford has held for 33 and 44 years respectively, Ford vehicles also lead a number of industry segments.

For cars, the Ford Fiesta, Ford Focus, Ford Mondeo and Ford Galaxy are all clear segment leaders while the Ford Transit continues its long-held position as the overall top-selling commercial vehicle in Britain.

Special Editions

Peugeot celebrates its 200th anniversary with the launch of a range of special edition 308 models called Millesim 200.

The 308 Millesim is launched in the UK in June priced from £16,245.00 on-theroad for the 1.4 VTi 98 version.

Latitude with attitude Renault has today provided the first glimpse of its latest global family saloon, Latitude.

In addition to its balanced proportions, generous exterior dimensions, large boot and front-end looks which mirror the powerful engines in the new range, the newcomer boasts elegant styling.

Based on an architecture that is widely acclaimed for its strength and efficiency, Renault's new saloon rounds off the brand's international highend range and will appeal to customers who are looking for status, quality and comfort in all of its forms.

Renault Latitude will get its first public airing at the Moscow Motor Show at the end of August, while European motorists will be able to get their first close-up view of the car at the 2010 Paris Motor Show in October.

In addition to its generous exterior dimensions (length: 4.89m / width: 1.83m / height: 1.49m), Latitude boasts elegant looks. The contours of the grille are flanked by distinctive bi-xenon adaptive directional headlights, while chrome de-

tailing give the car an unmistakable impression of dynamism and status.

Its rear design incorporates ample boot space, and the new car can effectively claim one of the biggest boots in its class.

The rear lighting signature employs LED technology and har-

monises perfectly with the chrome rear strip which bears the new model's name.

Based on the same architecture as New SM5, which was recently launched in Korea, Latitude profits extensively from Renault's engineering expertise.

Occupants benefit from a comfortable, quiet ride, as well as a precise chassis and a choice of powerplants that are sure to give it a decisive edge over its rivals. For enhanced quality and reliability, Renault Latitude comes with a number of features developed and as-

sembled to the Alliance's highest standards and which benefit directly from the excellent results obtained by Laguna on these two fronts.

The complete equipment list, to be revealed soon, places the emphasis on innovation and travelling comfort, includ-

ing a dual-mode air ioniser with double fragrance diffuser, triple-zone climate control, a massaging driver's seat, Bose Premium audio and Renault hands-free card.

Tailored to meet the demand of its different markets, Latitude's specification will deliver a truly high-end package that will position it as the flagship of Renault's international saloon car range. It will be shown at the forthcoming Moscow Motor Show, and is due to go on sale this autumn, chiefly in Asia, Africa, the Gulf States, Mexico, Turkey, Russia and Australia.

The European version will be one of the world debuts at the 2010 Paris Motor Show in October, where visitors will get full details of the model's equipment lists and engine range.

Road tests begin at the end of 2010, and sales will commence shortly afterwards.

A decision on the possible UK launch of Latitude has not yet been made, however, potential international customers will be able to discover more about the car from 10 June at www.renault-latitude.com

Oh yeah, the old 4-4-2 formation...

Thunder have a great team spirit...

Lightning strikes twice for Thunder

...and the supporters aren’t bad either!

The Big Match Report: Nick Hind Pictures: Vic Heritage

Howdy partners. We’re back on the football trail this week. But, this isn’t football as we know it- the World Cup is nowhere in sight- this is Gridiron baby, American Football, and it’s gearing up to take the town by storm.

Ok, they may wear Lycra tights, helmets and cover themselves in body armour

from head to toe; they may have a squad big enough for four Rugby teams, but believe me these boys are tough!

And I’m pleased to announce that we have new Sheriffs in town hoping to ride out any outlaws who get too big for their 10 gallon Stetsons- but who are these new Marshalls I hear you ask?

Daniel Innis scores an early touchdown, but once again Thunder threw away a lead against Farnham Knights The Resident would like to offer up a warm welcome to the Sussex Thunder American Football Team as they settle into their new home at the Broadbridge Heath Stadium, and wish them all the best for the coming season in the Premier Division of the British American Football Association.

The Thunder’s Chairman, Tony Miller, is very excited with the venue saying, ‘we’ve been looking to move for a while, but wanted to wait until we found the right place. The playing surface is a cut above what we have had before and the spectator facilities are a big improvement that will enable

us to provide a better game day experience for our supporters.’

I can confirm a great experience is to be had. First and foremost there is an intense game to watch. You can get right down to the pitch side if you dare. But a word of warning, not too close or you’re likely to get wrapped up in a tackle!

There’s a real carnival atmosphere created with banging drums, cheers and whoops from the sidelines, and that’s before I mention the impressive Lightning Cheerleaders.

They may not have the gymnastic routines of their American counterparts, but, they sure know how to shake their pom-poms.

With merchandise available and a tasty barbecue, there’s a lot on offer for the minimal entrance fee.

And for those of you who will be sick to the back teeth with the World Cup over the next six weeks, why not get yourselves down to the Broadbridge Heath Stadium and help the Sussex Thunder turn their new ground into a fortress, willing them all the way on to the Brit Bowl at the end of the season.

On Saturday the Thunder played out their first home game of the season against the Farnham Knights. The Knights had already beaten the Thunder this season, and it was time for the team from Sussex to reverse the score-line and pick

This player is a bear-fighter by trade. Maybe... up their first points of the season.

Here’s how it went...

Thunder won the toss and elected to receive from the kick off. A great 30 yard return from Alex Brew gave the home side an excellent position to attack on their opening drive.

Keeping the ball in hand, the running backs made good yards and advanced to within 25 yards of the Knight’s end zone. But, the drive stalled at the crucial moment and the field goal attempt was hooked wide.

The Thunder’s Defence was rampant in the opening exchanges. Huge hits rained down on the Knights causing the away team to fumble possession in their first 2 drives.

(If you want to see how hard these guys hit, just check out the Youtube video that one

player has made of his tacklesOuch!)

Thunder Quarter Back, Eber Kington, took advantage of his Defence’s good work by taking his team 70 yards up the pitch to within striking distance of the end zone.

This time they took their chance as a composed Kington spun right from the scrimmage and released the perfect pass for Daniel Innis to latch onto for the opening touchdown.

The kick was converted to give Thunder a 7-0 lead halfway through the second quarter.

The Knights had to get into the game at some stage, and with halftime approaching they had plodded their way down to within 10 yards of the Thunder goal-line. But, an awesome first half defensive disContinued on Page 69...

Rival sunk in Mary/Rose final

Pics by Vic Heritage

“Number 36, you really need to pull your socks up out there...” play was wrapped up in style as the Thunder swarmed all over the Knight’s Running Backs, smothering any chance for the Knights to pick up points before half time.

The Thunder threw away a 12 point lead when these teams met earlier in the season, and you could sense the apprehension in the air as the second half kicked off.

They looked determined not to let this one slip away. But, perhaps this was their downfall, playing the occasion and not taking the game on its merits. Errors at crucial moments crept into their game and allowed the Knights the foothold they needed to get back into the game.

And the away side grabbed their chance with open arms, running in two quick fire touch downs as the Thunder paid a heavy price for their high error count.

The Thunder could have equalled it up at the end, pushing right up to the last whistle, but, they were unable to finish off a promising drive with the touchdown it deserved.

So their first home game at the new stadium finished in a 7-14 loss, but there’s plenty of encouragement to be taken from the game, and I’m sure the first victory

of the season is just around the corner.

The Thunder’s Head Coach, Tony Stitt, affectionately known as ‘Coach’, is something to behold. The quintessential American attitude exudes from his every follicle.

He inspires his charges from the sidelines with life, passion and vigour. His style and aura is so infectious that I’m now a fully fledged Thunders fan. Or as Coach would say- ‘loud and proud Baby!’

But even Coach couldn’t hide his disappointment at the loss after being so close to their opening victory.

He kept the glass half full when dissecting the game with me saying, ‘We need to learn how to follow through on our great starts. Mistakes at crucial times are costing us, but, there are plenty of positives to take from today and if we must lose then at least we are doing so in the correct manner.’

So come on guys, Coach Stitt and his troops need our support. Check out the web site at www.sussexthunder.com.

The next home game is on the 20th June so get yourselves down to the Broadbridge Heath Stadium and help us roar on the Thunder. www.sussexthunder.com

When one of these guys goes down, they’re really hurt.

Just like Didier Drogba...

“Come on coach, you gotta put me on!”

Disappointment turned to joy for Mary Southgate, 14, at the Crawley Open Tennis Tournament.

Mary had to withdraw from the 18 and Under singles event after picking up a football injury a few days before. However she recovered in time to play the 16 and Under singles to win it and her first title of the summer season.

In the semi final Mary beat Rose Naested 6-2 6-0 by playing an attacking game throughout. The final, played against Isabella Holland, saw a close first set which Mary eventually won 7-6 after being down for most of the set.

The second set saw Mary step up a gear and, again, with an attacking game won comfortably 6-2

Final heartache

Lower Beeding Lions just missed out on a second tournament triumph of the season, losing in the final of the Worthing Minors Tournament.

On a blustery day on the south coast Lions were pitched against tough opposition in their group including Southdown Rovers and eventual winners Saltdean United.

Lions came through the group stage without losing a match, went onto win their semifinal 2 - 1 and only just failed at the last hurdle losing out 2 - 0 in the final to a strong Saltdean team.

The Lions squad for the tournament were Declan Norgate (not shown), Liam Ruz, Charlie Blair-Rains , Andrew Roberts, Adam Ruz, Tom Bowie and Aaron Pyzer.

Lions are on the look out for new players, if you might be interested please contact Clive on 07766 461098."

Royals teach the dads a lesson...

It’s a sad day for dads - when you realise your son is a better player than you!

The Royal United U14s team took on the dads on Saturday at Broadbridge Heath Leisure Centre, coming out on top in a nine goal thriller.

It was an absolute scorcher of a day and when The Dads found themselves a goal up after 20 minutes, they found a bit of belief.

However, that was short lived as Zac Love found the back of the net after some good passing bamboozled the Dads’ defence.

The second half saw the U14s take the lead when Jacob Waller slotted home after good work from Jake Legrange.

They increased their lead when Stanley Rice scored from a free kick and then Connor Cushing got the better of his dad, by curling a shot passed the manager Richard Chaplin, who had taken over as the keeper for the Dads.

Jake Legrange then made it 5-1 and the game looked out of reach for The Dads. However, the dads got the score back to 5-4 with 10 minutes to go, but the U14s deservedly came out winners.

A great day was had by all, which finished off with everyone enjoying a meal and drinks at a local pub...which was the highlight for the Dads!

The U14s: Aaron Chaplin, Josh Wood, Zac Love, Luke Polie, Harry Garman, Tristan Smith, Alex Parsons, Connor Cushing, Jacob Waller, Stanley Rice, Jake Legrange & Tom Frankland The Dads: Nigel Smith, Bill Love, Lewis Wood, Tony Cushing, Dave Waller, Richard Chaplin, Rob Frankland, Paul Garman, Max Love, Jarod Spraget, Brian Clark, Miles Smith.

One at a time, eh boys!

Parents in the hot seat at Chesworth fun day Anyone taking a passing interest in the Chesworth Rovers fun day at the holbrook Club on Saturday might have questioned some of the club’s coaching methods.

That’s because - for a bit of fun mums and dads took over the running of the football teams for a day, while the managers took a day off and were referees for the event.

Over 100 children, aged from seven to 16, took part in the friendly tournament, and each of them were awarded a medal at the end of the day.

As you would expect, the event took on a World Cup theme, but there was no penalty agony for England as no official winners were declared.

Aside from the football there was plenty to keep children entertained, including a bouncy castle and face painting.

The club is always welcoming of new players. For more information visit the website at www.chesworthroversfc.com

Nice surprise for Kenagi

On Sunday 30th May three members of The Kenagi Academy of Martial Arts travelled to the Excel Centre at the London Docklands to take part in the London International Karate Open.

The Open proved successful for the Academy and the trio, Lorna Harty, 18, Matthew Schenck, 22 and Luke Harty, 16, managed to scoop three medals between them.

Lorna achieved a silver medal in the Female Cadets 15-18 years Kata Event and was only 0.1 of a point off the score of the winner.

Luke came away with a silver medal from the Male Cadets 15-18 years Kata Event and a bronze medal from the Mixed All Grade Champions Kata Event. Matthew narrowly missed out in the placings achieving 4th in his event, however he put in strong and solid performance.

Sensei Brian Redman who started the Academy said: “Having never attended an international competition of this scale before and being out of the competition circuit for some time, the Kenagi squad’s success was both a surprise and a well earned reward for all the hard work they have been putting in.

“Who knows, next time Kenagi could be bringing home the gold.”

Charity triumph

Many children had the England flag painted on their faces

Horsham have a hand on Friendship Cup Horsham v West Sussex Tourists Lost 71-77

A comfortable lead of 10 shots at tea could not be maintained by Horsham and the Tourists fought back well to win the match by 6 shots. Horsham only managed to win on one rink, that of Roy Pretty, David Marden, Ken Holloway and skip George Cooper.

Vice-captain Michael Bright was philosophical, remarking that the old bowls adage that “It all changes

after tea” was true on this occasion.

Horsham v Lindfield Won 86-84

A very close game against a strong Lindfield team ended in success for Horsham. Captain Robin Machell kept a close eye on the scores throughout the game, fearing the worst at the end, until Roy Smith’s rink picked up 6 shots on the last end. With rinks shared two all and

one tied, the overall win by 2 shots was very satisfying.

Top rink of Chris Holmes, Gerald Moss, Michael Bright and skip Roy Smith (+8) was well supported by Paul Jolliffe (+6), while skip Dennis Tribe held on to tie.

Horsham v Worthing Pavilion Won 126-92

The Friendship Cup is competed for annually between Horsham and Worthing Pavilion Bowling

Clubs. Horsham currently hold the cup and after Monday’s first leg are in a strong position to retain it.

A good win by 34 shots will be carried over to the second leg in Worthing on Monday 9th August.

With three rinks winning by one shot and a fourth rink tied, Horsham owed it’s dominance to top rink of David Grogan, Malcolm Bridgman, Doug Locke and skip Tony Venn (+20) more than ably supported by Paul Jolliffe’s rink (+11). An excellent win all round.

Fifteen teams of four played in the Charity Day at Cottesmore.

This is an annual event attracting golfers from all over south-east England.

Last year’s winners obviously are learning about the course as the Puttenham ladies (above) team won for a second year running as did the men’s team from Pycombe.

Over £1340 was raised to split between three charities: Lady Captain’s Charity Honeypot which helps young, vulnerable and disadvantaged children and young carers in Sussex; the Vets’ Captain’s Charity Help for Heroes” and the Men’s Charity Sussex Autistic Society.

In the Sussex League inter-club matches, the ladies division teams have played 18 matches to date but with more still to play results will not be known until late June.

The Morrice Fours team are through to the quarter finals.

Internal tournaments are progressing with the Rosebowl won by Penny Gaunt; the Myra Shipton fourball-better-ball won by Heather Tomsett and Yvonne Burgess; Mr and Mrs Walsh won the Men’s Invite to Ladies.
