A throwback to the old days before Bobbies were invented with a man defending what's his in a way that demonstrates what's missing in the courts these days - an effective deterrent.

I don't think you should be calling Simon Thomas a throwback. It's rude.

Wait til we give devolution to Scotland and then we can transport them to there, along with the entire population of the new Sangatte.

Oh very sensible post Peter Hunt, let's all get guns and we can be as safe as the USA...!
It will be old news next week and he can go back to terrorizing innocent ramblers and families having a day out instead...

I now strongly suspect that Bill was the culprit in the attempted burglary and his motive was to deflect the outrage caused by his placing furniture on the street. You nearly succeeded Bill.

A genuine enquiry here, does the landlord have any right to kick people off the land directly opposite his pub over the river? Do I have any right to be on that land? Lets say I was taking a photo!

I heard the land belongs to Crispin, a local farmer. In which case I guess it's up to Crispin and not the Anchor Inn to kick you off.
Doesn't the Ouse footpath go past there anyway - isn't there some sort of right of way ? And as for banning other boats - quite riduculous

People knowing the roads around Barcombe, may also scratch their heads at the police response times to an RTA involving an abandoned, injured girlfriend. Took ages for them to arrive apparently, enough time for the driver to escape and sober up anyway. Funny old game innit. Even newsworthy possibly?
