Photo by Alex Leith MY LEWES: ROSIE BOXER, BUSINESS RESEARCHER, ROCKET FM PROGRAMMER Are you local? No. I was born in Birkenhead – the Wirral, actually – and moved to Ringmer in 1987 when my husband Tony got a job at Brighton Poly. We had a spell in Newcastle, but it was too cold up there, so we moved back down, to the same house, which we had never sold and still live in now. I got a job at Lewes Tertiary College… the rest is history. Why did you choose Ringmer? We wanted to live round here because of the train links to London and Gatwick Airport; the houses in Ringmer were more affordable than those in Lewes. We realised it was a lovely village, with great shops and a fine community swimming pool. We regularly walk up to the top of Caburn, from where you can see the sea, on a good day. We’ve not regretted it. How did you get involved in Rocket FM? I got hooked on radio when I was a barmaid at The Grapes close to Radio City’s studios in Liverpool, then I started doing hospital radio DJing as a hobby. About ten years ago I met Rocket’s Andy Thomas and he persuaded me to get involved. Should it be on all year? It relies on the good will and hard work of an awful lot of volunteers and sponsors, and I’m not sure that would be sustainable for much longer than three weeks a year. People don’t realise how much goes into it. Just the programming – which I do with Peter Flanagan – is a full-time job for three months. Are you ‘Bonfire’? On the 5th, I generally stay at home! But we consider Rocket FM to be the eighth bonfire society. And I think that Bonfire is incredibly valuable for the town, not least to protect its cultural heritage. Lewes is increasingly becoming a destination town, and it’s great for the residents to be able to take it back for 24 hours. Where do you like eating and drinking? In terms of Lewes pubs the Brewers, the Lewes Arms and the Swan, but our favourite is the Six Bells in Chiddingly. Their Christmas Yorkies are to die for. We really miss the Trevor in Glynde – please do something Harveys! – but enjoy the quarterly popup pub run by the Glynde Memorial team. The food in the new chains Côte and Aqua is good, but I’m worried about the effect they’ll have on all the independents. Where do you shop? Bread, meat and pet supplies can all be bought in the village. Otherwise Tesco, Waitrose (when I get free vouchers) and - for a monthly treat - Lidl in Newhaven. What don’t you like about living in Ringmer? I spend too much time standing outside Lewes Waitrose waiting for the bus, which is very unreliable. If not Ringmer, where would you like to live? West Kirby, where my sister lives. If it’s not raining you can see Wales, over the Dee. It’s where I hung out as a teenager, and that never leaves you.
