    [Music] Top 3 Yankee bands

    Still I think in my top three gigs ever at the Electric Ballroom in 1985 which I think was their second gig in the UK. Just made me realise how gaps between songs were unnecessary.

    [Music] Top 3 Yankee bands

    There’s a single already available to listen to. Interesting blue grass influence. I think Grandaddy just get better the more you listen to them- I keep coming back to Sumday in particular.

    Unlikely I’d say. I don’t think this has happened before and it’s a fairly major event for Brighton requiring significant road closures and emergency services support. Of course the game could still move to Friday or Monday for TV.

    They say never meet your heroes but a pleasure to catch up with @Garry Nelson's teacher today at Worthing for the first time in a couple of years and watch him glide around the turn and disappear into the distance! 21:15/73.57% a decent effort after 11 muddy miles on the Downs yesterday. Bumper...

    Thank you @Curious Orange for your work on the table. I started the year with 22:08/70.63% on the back of five hours sleep and a hangover so hopefully plenty of room for improvement. Congratulations to @Garry Nelson's teacher on his continued outstanding performance and let’s see how long I...

    47th and final parkrun of 2023 meant the annual trip to Bevendean Down. It doesn’t get any easier there! Very pleased to get a pb though and highest ever position (6th but it’s a run not a race right :) ). Who’s at Hove Park on NYD? I’ll be scanning after the run. More marshals needed if anyone...

    Hastings is my favourite. Eastbourne and Tunbridge Wells also around this time.

    [Sussex] Where can you buy the most expensive pint of Harvey's in the world?

    I miss the sign in the garden of The Railway/Whistlestop requesting clientele not to throw empty glasses onto the railway line. And yes The Foghorn is the clear winner - although I quite like the Westbourne.

    Wonderful morning for parkrunning - it seems several parkruns in Holland are being completed by Seagulls. Meanwhile back in perfect conditions on Hove Prom I managed an SB 20:58 and an AG PB of 74.56% - classic 'three weeks after a marathon' performance when your legs are strong and have...

    Absolutely brilliant you are getting out there. Do use parkrun as well - super supportive - you don’t have to run 5k - just do part of the course e.g. one length of the prom or one lap of Hove Park and slowly work up. They also have walking and jog/walk options - again all massive supportive...

    Great to see you are back on it - well done! It’s Hove Park parkrun’s 16th birthday on Saturday - the course is being run in reverse which is usually quicker so a chance for that SB??? I ran Ljubljana marathon last week - lovely event - Slovenia is a terrific country to visit, we stayed for...
