Phoenix members do not use the Forum or any similar site, therefore any post purporting to originate from Phoenix is gauged to inflame and incite unpleasantness. Phoenix goes about its business quietly and efficiently without any unpleasantness to anyone. Should you genuinely be interested in our aims and objective please contact us on [email protected]. From the Secretary.

So if no one from phoenix posts on here, then your post is also a ruse - what a paradox.

Why would anyone want to join a WALKING GROUP?? No smugglers allowed and I thought only the elite with good costumes (show offs) could join?? Don't you vet members before you let them join ?? As for the no bitching policy I do believe the biggest culprits are already Phoenix members and run the GROUP. Also as pointed out above, at least 70 per cent of the GROUP have social networking profiles and I've known several to use this site .......... Mainly the one who posted this post!! Please no ones perfect and Bonfire people are the worse, doesn't matter which group or society they are with.

Have you seen they sell single cooked sausages in Tesco now (other supermarkets are available)? What a funny thing to do!

Any more threads like these should solve the 'problem' of outsiders wanting to move to Lewes.

These Bonfire / Phoenix threads at best, make Lewes residents look barking mad at worst it makes us all look thoroughly unpleasant.

Please can someone tell me what the pheonix group is about. Did they leave another society or something? Can a phoenix member explain please. I really am just curious.

Why are u all so jealous of the Phoenix??
It's so sad that u all talk crap on here, and don't get your heads down and try to make the costumes that could beat them!
And I love the way u hide behind a stupid name on this site!!!

Tom i'm not sure where you got the idea that anyones jealous of phoenix ? I think people are just miffed that a group of people have left one society but continue to wear that societies pioneer costumes , if you want to form a new group go ahead but that means new costumes surely ? No jealousy at all just a matter of respect. The old saying you have to give respect to get respect ????? If they created costumes of that standard that were not another societies there would be no problem

shel why cant the phoeinx wear zulus ? just because its boroughs first pioneer does it mean that all societies in sussex cant wear the first pioneer of a lewes society ? i dont hear csbs complaining about maresfield or east hoathly wearing indians . get over it. if you didnt have members that upset and drive others out you wouldnt have a problem maybe borough should take a long hard look at some of there own members and ask questions why they left ????

why don't we all SUPPORT the societies? we all march on the 5th for the very same reason.

@smug boy..... The reason why csbs don't complain about Maresfield wearing Indians is because they have duel memberships!! Maresfield on out meetings and csbs on the 5th!! However I do remember csbs complaining when Waterloo had Indians as 2nd pioneers!!! Borough do get the dirty end of the stick Phoenix take Zulus and Waterloo pinch the Tudors!! It is about time those from the Phoenix who wear Zulu made new costumes like the rest of Phoenix!! Something to give themselves a more of an identity !!
