The unofficial Mayor of Brighton has certainly earned his chains of office. A local show for local people, Terry Garoghan's homage to his home city is now in its twelfth year and was as fresh and funny as ever.

A real character, Garoghan treated us to his own private musings, such as "Is Fiveways a sexual position?" and referring to Patcham as "Stepford Wives territory".

In his view, Shoreham is where you live if you can't afford to live in Brighton, and Southwick is where you live if you can't afford to live in Shoreham.

Apparently, the definition of Devil's Dyke is KD Lang on a motorbike and to survive in Brighton one must know the difference between the Duke Of York's cinema and Duke's Mound.

His take on Brighton through song was hilarious. From I Believe In Dockerills (an informative piece regarding the purchase of a plunger to the tune of You Sexy Thing) to an inspired ditty about local character Christopher Eubank to the tune of Eleanor Rigby, Garoghan proved himself to be a clever and witty wordsmith with a true fondness for the city.

And despite several cheeky references to this newspaper, Brighton simply wouldn't be the same without him.
