That is a serious blow, the loss of a good Interleague venue. A nice colourful pub on the side of a hill opposite an impressive church.

I think if Horsham had to pick our most enjoyable visit last season it would be that one - fond memories of an honest table, a good jukebox, comfortable settee to park the posterior on, some really tasty pizza, and the episode of Dick Cable, Shirley and the necklace !

If you find somewhere half as good you'll be doing well.

Agree with you tommo a great venue which added to the enjoyment of the game, and thats what its mostly about at our level of play.

See the Tarratt top at the Garden Bar

Still don't get why Tarratt's don't let the Boards know where their tables are placed, got to increase their earnings in the long run

[gandalf the untidy]

The Garden Bar Table in Eastbourne has been removed

[gandalf the untidy]

The Old Hurst Arms Table has Reappeared at the Cross in Hand Pub Heathfield

seems a nice top but as usual these days the cushions are a bit dead

The Plough Westfield Table has been relocated to the Prince of Wales, the original there was a narrow topped one

Did you mean to post these on this thread, Gandalf ?
I can trace prior reference to the venues, but under Hastings.

Hi BB Fans

Sad to report that the 4 pin Interleague match will be the last match to be played a the hospital club, the Lewes team based there are going to other venues so Dave has decided to have the table removed.

What a shame ! I recall spending a really enjoyable day at REHSC not so long ago:

Just returned from an excellent day of the noble sport of 4-Pin hosted by Gandalf at the Eastbourne Hospital Staff Social Club.
Unfortunately a reduced lineup - the original 18 became 12 die-hards so very little "cannon fodder". This meant that Colin was able to re-schedule so we had double legs, everyone playing 8 frames in total !

Our day started with a huge full English breakfast on arrival, and between rounds we could go out to take the sun on the balcony overlooking the swimming pool.

Congratulations to whoever won out of the semifinalists Phil and Bob Osborne, Colin Southouse and young James Bown.

We enjoyed the day and thanks once again.

Looking forward to meeting up with you all next Wednesday for the final hurrah......

Hi all, seven sisters is shutting for a month for a refurb, unsure if table is going to be back there, 6th march.

Half Moon, Cade Street

I had a knock about on this table last Saturday lunchtime, table takes the OLD 10p coin available for £1 from behind the bar. Break ok and pretty level had a bit of fun well worth stopping off and a lovely pint of Hoggs back T E A

Heathfield - Cade Street. Area steeped in history:
orig.villagenet.co.uk/?h=21
Jack Cade made the fatal mistake of claimimg he was a 'Mortimer' (= of noble breeding). When the pardons were issued, his was in the name of Mortimer, so there was none in the name of Jack Cade as only one per person could be granted. Hence his arrest and execution for his part in the uprising.
