Is Bexhill the UK centre for Soylent Green manufacture?

GREETINGS....
Someone flew up to us the other day + said "Do you know that Bexhill is the UK manufacturing centre for Soylent Green?" We almost fell off the roof where we were perched.. WTF.. were they talking about..
We decided to invite some friends over from Shoreham for dinner, it was Thursday afterall (Bin Day in Central Bexhill..) during the course of some bag ripping a Black Tern, Terry I think said "Yeah I know all the local undertakers are in on it man..it's quite lucrative actually..
That derelict old @Tiffany Sharwoods' building is where the process gets carried out... and the stuff goes out the back door all over the UK mainly to BIG Fast food chains!
I decided there + then to never eat that S--T again..and get an allotment from Rother..
Funny what you hear about.. things going on under our noses all the time!

Here's a Weird one Guys + (particularly) Gals..

Some hack, Ms Zoe Williams from The Guardian Newspaper managed to get out of her office recently +  visit Bexhill. She's written a piece called,
'Rother: The most Female place in England+Wales..cutting edge journalism me-thinks..
The gist of it is that the place is full of old women...We know this already as they have no shame+ chase us all the time asking to go to tea dances or for walks on the prom..they hardly leave you alone! It's like they have raided Boots pharmacy + stolen all the oestrogen and progesterone patches..
From another angle of Bexhill she says "There just isn't enough mess to suggest habitation.."
She's obviously never stayed over from Wed to Thurs. in Central Bexhill after the SeaGulls have 'had their way' with the bin bags!
 or visited Egerton Park to step in the piles of dog shit which abound..
Anyway..you can read the full article here..if you've nothing better to do!

Whoaah..Extreme Weirdness alert..Bexhill finally loses it!

Greetings..fellow Bexhillians..
We are glad to announce that Bexhill weirdness has reached new heights.literally!
The great + good @ The De La Warr Pavillion have decided in their infinite wisdom to extend the parking spaces available @ their venue. Coaches can now be left on the DLWP roof for up to 2 hrs (check with parking attendant, a Mr R. Wilson, unless you want to get a ticket).
If you use this facility please keep clear of the coach hanging over the edge. Some drunk PSV tour driver from Eastbourne managed to almost kill his passengers the other day.
But Hang on a minute lads.. there is a silver lining to every cloud.... various members of RDC, assorted 'jobs worths', crazy invalid carriage drivers, + rude shop owners could be loaded in, and the precariously perched coach could be 'helped' over the edge!
Interesting thought though..
ps We notice that no staff are using the ground floor Car park underneath previously mentioned coach..maybe they know something we don't?
pps When I was @ The De La Warr today..kept overhearing visitors talking about some 'Italian Job..' just wondered if De Paolos over the road was advertising for a new dishwasher or someting?

It was all kicking off @ The DLWP 'Ear' tonight...

Just stretching my wings this Eve...Looked up from Prom to see loads of people gathered around the 'Acoustic Ear' on DLWP patio!
Had to get closer, it's usually skateboarders..but getting nearer appeared to be a crowd engaged in Political meeting..Surely Greg Barker would never be working and husting this late in the eve.!
Alas soon discovered that it was a crew rehearsing for up-comming gig entitled,
'Mr Punch's Pleasure Palace'..a community play.
Looks cool..Here's their Twitter feed handle for info.
They need our support folks..Be there or be square!
Must Fly..
