Illegal Rave at the Dyke

[Deleted User X18H]

you could always climb up the hill and tell them to

Common misconception. The hill that leads up from Saddlescombe / Poynings is not the Dyke . The Dyke is the very steep sided inclined valley behind this.

Played a twilight round of golf at the Dyke yesterday evening. A big build up/crescendo put me right off my swing on the 9th but otherwise was quite nice to have a bit of bass thudding around the course tbh.

There was a police roadblock with a van, about 5 officers on the road and a TV camera crew on the devils dyke road on my way back. The officer said he was doing a drink drive check, stuck his nose in my car and told me to drive on.

Resident Colin Warburton, 61, from Poynings, said the rave “doesn’t bother me one bit”.

He said: “To be honest I’d had a few drinks myself on Saturday, so when it started up I didn’t really notice.

“As long as they’re having a laugh up there then I’m OK with it.”

young people having fun at the weekend? at night? it's an outrage.

mass groups of people having fun without paying tax or license fees will always get the authorities backs up.

He didn't refute that. He was saying climb up from Poynings and tell them to shut up.

I do remember them, not sure how but I do! And Shoreham Power Station and Ditchling Beacon.....

Those were the days, Positive Sounds (wasn't it) knew how to throw a party.

I do remember going to a party down near Saltdean?? under one of the tunnels and being one of about 20 people. And it got raided, how embarrassing their were almost as many coppers as party goers.

Good on the youth for doing something, it seems like they are not really up to much at present. They need some decent youth culture these young uns they seem to worried about sensible things to be having a good time (I hope to god they are up to something and I am just too old to know what it is)

Leaving a s*** load of crap in a National Park will get the authorities backs up as well.

Is this actually illegal? Struggling to think of the laws they're breaking

 

[Poyningsgull]

After all that, went to a garden centre in Hassocks today. We know how to live.!

I had the misfortune to be fishing the West Arm at Shoreham one night when some kids attempted a ' Rave " by Carats Cafe ...absolutely soul destroying mindless thudding crap. Like a giant moron hammering in an endless nail. No wonder they have to take drugs to listen to it.

Well it isnt their land for one and they broke a gate off/removed some bushes to access the land.

There is 2 laws broken there at least.

If it is a one off who gives a stuff?

 

[vegster]

I think they should repair the fences and gates now, lock them in and enforce a cordon around them and keep them there for the evening. I'm sure they are loving the facilities and weather.

 

[dazzer6666]

I'm sure they'll spend today clearing up the mess, then repair the fence on their way out.

As long as they are willing to clean up their mess and compensate the landowners for the damage, then fair enough, we can cope with a one off.

Looks shit. My son's communion party was rowdier.
