It could be worse - I gather in the west of the county there are roads leading to Portsmouth and Southampton
Quite right. Portsmouth. Ugh.

Lovely walks up the Ouse. Gig rowing from the harbour. Newhaven Fort. One of the few sandy beaches in Sussex (it's a disgrace that's not accessible). Piddinghoe Pond. Gateway to Europe.
If it's good enough for Ho Chi Minh.

As you have never had the pleasure of visiting Sussex
I'd like to inform you it's the best town in the county
You can even catch a boat to France from there
It's famous for the ill fated raid on Dieppe in1942 (my grandfather actually took part in)
Ho Chi Minh has a plaque there
And one of the French kings stayed at the Bridge Inn,when on the run
Lord Lucan
Wreckless Eric

Oh sorry.
Unless Graham has a history of stealing cars and parking them on their side in the middle of the street, I can't imagine Newhaven holds too many attractions for him
It did for Lord Lucan, allegedly.

I didn’t know this, I heard he had some connection with Worthing.
The drummer from Generation X lives or did live in Saltdean.
You missed "normally on fire".
As another native, I feel I'm allowed to be blisteringly rude about it

I was quite young to be fair. I was 16, had gone to Meeching Valley and Tideway (as they then were), my mum moved to Lewes when I finished school and then I went off to university.
I went to a game at Newhaven FC last season, when I was stuck at home by a series of unlikely events, the goalie (I want to say his name's Ryan but it's just fallen out of my head) was in my year at school. I probably did play football with him but have no recollection of it. I do remember playing football with a rock with a few people when none of us had a ball
I seem to remember being forced to go to meetings, for want of a better word, vaguely related to that Our Newhaven site. But in true surly teenager fashion I contributed nothing and can't remember what they were actually about.

The first team keeper is called Jake.
I enjoy going to Newhaven FC, I struggle getting home sometimes

Oh yes, of course it is. Maybe I'm going senile. Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure he kept wicket on the couple of occasions I played cricket with him.
I really enjoyed it, unfortunately I think it was the last game before another lockdown came in so I've not been since. I did go to a game once when I was very young, I assume my sister was going out with one of the players at the time.
