BITS AND BOBS
READER OFFERS: TWO-FOR-ONE SLAP-UP MEALS
After a fairly long hiatus, reader offers are back…
and we have two great meal deals in nearby pub/
restaurants! First up, the Sussex Ox, in Milton
Street near Alfriston, who are offering two main
meals for the price of one with the cut-out
voucher on pg 91 (drinks excluded, not valid Sat
or Sun). On the same page, there’s a coupon for
the Jolly Sportsman in East Chiltington, which
is offering two main courses for the price of one,
from their à la carte menu, on Tues, Weds or
Thurs evening. So there are a couple of winter
warmers for you… bon appetit!
ROCKET FM
Rocket FM launched for its
16th season on October 17th,
and will keep on broadcasting
local news and music until the
6th of November. The last two
days - incorporating live coverage
from Bonfire Night - will
be produced from its pop-up
studio overlooking the War
Memorial.
If you enjoy reading Viva Lewes
we bet you’ll enjoy listening to
Rocket, which you can access
online (rocketfm.org.uk) or
at 87.8 FM. It all starts from 7am with Ruth
O’Keeffe and Dino Bishop’s morning show:
expect a mix of chat and music, with guest after
guest popping in to talk about Lewes affairs.
Time to give the likes of John
Humphrys, Nick Grimshaw,
Rachel Burden et al a rest…
There are over 50 presenters
- all volunteers - doing shows,
including a few names you will
have become familiar with in
these pages (as well as Viva writers
presenting shows there are
turns from the likes of Norman
Baker, Vic Smith, Peter Flanagan
and Dilly Barlow).
The events on the 5th are particularly
popular abroad, and last
year an estimated 1,000 listeners tuned in online,
from 43 different countries, for the big night.
Rocket are keen for anyone out there to get in
