Golf Club Halt was in Brighton,.As was the Dyke

Geography isn't your strong point is it.

Golf Club Halt was in the old parish of West Blatchington which became part of the borough of Hove in 1928.

Neither incidentally is local history. Are we talking about the old parish of Hove, or its boundaries after 1928 when it expanded to include Hangleton, West Blatchington and the western portion of Preston(Aldrington was added in 1893)?

Golf Club Halt was in the Parish of Poynings certainly not Hove.

Wrong again. The Dyke station was, Golf Club Halt wasn't, see map below, follow the dots which head up in an almost triangular shape to Dyke Road - that is the northern tip of the old parish boundary of Hangleton. Poynings is to the left. The railway, golf club and Skeleton Hovel all fall within Hangleton. The map is an 1899 edition published by the OS (https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/527500/106500/10/100546)

Edit: Isn't West Blatchington but Hangleton - however, it is still within the borough boundary of Hove.

Hangleton didn't become part of Hove until after 1939. In any case anywhere north of Skeleton Hovel is West Sussex

So who are Kylie and Kristy? I can only hope it's Aussie lovelies Kylie Minogue and Kristy Wright and somehow Timmy has found out they are planning on moving to Hove and this is his way of welcoming them....
