I wish to inform everyone, including cyclists, dog walkers and ramblers, that a notice has gone up on Southwick Lock which states people will not be allowed across the locks to the beach for six months.

Access will only be gained via the Hove Lagoon entrance. So much for being a cycling demonstration town.

This obviously ends at the boundary line. So we will have to share the seafront road with the cars and lorries until October - just in time for winter.
