[Sussex] Sussex By The Sea

[shingle]

The 85 year old Father in Law is convinced that in Lewes tonight at 8pm after a loud firework bang we're all going to sing 'Sussex By The Sea'

Anyone heard anything about this or is it a case of a bit of cabin fever on his behalf. Anyway I don't need an excuse to sing it.

... and at 8.10 can we all sing the "F*CK V.A.R..." song?

Just seen it, ITS AT 9pm, and we've been asked to put some lighting in the house window

Let your voices ring my boys (and girls).

I think parliament is also singing a rendition of Captain Beaky.

 

[Munkfish]

Jealous.

What the actual ****!

 

[John Byrnes Mullet]

Brilliant idea.

 

[Eeyore]

What the actual ****!

Well, the actual line in the Lewes version is 'friends'. Mainly to include everyone in the singing process. The song is adapted to a defiance of the current climate.

Seems okay to me.

Tin pot, having to have the words on the screen, and sung too slow.

Fine, I don't see many other detractors on this one. It's just a nice sing-a-long. Good for them.

Not wishing to be a party pooper but why are all these events timed to wake up young children?!

All happened here in South Street, Lewes a few minutes ago. A rook scarer went off at 9pm and one of the neighbours beamed scenes of sussex onto a white house across the road and people came from surrounding streets and we all sung GOSBTS. Singing was a bit insipid though, could have done with some of the North Stand chaps to inject a bit of passion.

Singing was a bit insipid though, could have done with some of the North Stand chaps to speed it up .

Slight edit at the end......
Sorry

I'm sure the Lewes version is -
Good old down from London by the sea.

Certainly wouldn't dispute that.

I like Lewes and do a fair bit of work there, even though I usually know the answer, I always ask the homeowners if they grew up in the town I can't help myself
