What's Happening in East Grinstead

@mimsdavies @PeteBradburyClr @j987xyz @MSDCnews @WSCCNews Thank you - we have submitted a Community application for new highway scheme, with the support of Cllr @Lizzieannie

@WHEGrinstead @PeteBradburyClr @j987xyz @MSDCnews Yes - I know the police have been engaged on this & local Cllrs - yes @WSCCNews would need to engaged in layout changes - there is a contact form on my website to email in thoughts

It's clear that people have been relishing the reopening of McDonalds in Burgess Hill. To help Sussex Police maintain a safe flow of traffic we have agreed a temporary licence with McDonalds, where they will pay the council to use our Station Road car park until 15 June.

@mimsdavies @PeteBradburyClr @j987xyz @MSDCnews #EastGrinstead one way system gets gridlocked because of a drive through. Painting a box junction or a short red route would stop this. How do we make that happen, and more to the point, why have WSCC not thought to do it?

@PeteBradburyClr @j987xyz @MSDCnews Well some Pete. This doesn’t feel like the way to a ‘green recovery’ many people are writing about in their droves & asking me about how it can happen-I am doing likewise after we discussed this last week 👍

Something that could help the eateries with social distancing rules, although pavement space is tight in a few places. westsussex.gov.uk/news/fees-waiv… #EastGrinstead @egcouncil @VisitEG

@Graham09797100 @HNM_PMurray @cityorienteer @joncstone @asda @Tesco @sainsburys @Morrisons @aldi @LidlGB @waitrose Guildford only has two butchers (that I know of), on the outskirts. East Grinstead has none. They are hard to find nowadays. It’s mostly supermarkets.

striking how happy the UK is to fold to the demands of American trade negotiators even when it’s politically damaging for them, compared to how it approaches talks with the EU independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

@eastcourtlive The events have been brilliant, and looked forward to. Shame we skip a year, but bigger and better next year.

We've had some fantastic weather on the whole over the years. This was 2017 #eastcourtlive #EastGrinstead #livemusic #picnic

@carrieeford_ @WHEGrinstead What’s Happening in Grinstead is the largest fb group and is generally more representative of the town and as I say is moderated to stamp out the behaviour that you experienced. Don’t be put off. East Grinstead is a great place.

The town I live in is so fucking arrogant and racist this is what’s happening in the towns fb page. I’m truly so upset

@VisitEG @carrieeford_ Thank you - our group does not allow any posts of that nature as you have said. We really appreciate your comments.

@InspectorDarren @MSDCnews Shared to our Facebook group of 14,000 members facebook.com/groups/whatsha…

@VisitEG @andybward @AboutEG @egcouncil We asked 14,000 people some of whom are retailers

@WHEGrinstead @andybward @AboutEG @egcouncil Have you asked the retailers?

An interesting idea, but would it help? I don't know, but it's something that @egcouncil might be thinking about?

@andybward @AboutEG @egcouncil As usual, the group were split on this, probably slightly more against any changes.

@andybward @AboutEG @egcouncil We had a discussion about this in our group and people had very mixed views. Basically 50/50 for against. One idea might be a one way path - walk the direction of traffic. We'll run that in the group and get back to you.

Amazing and affirming - locally, in our town a lady is making masks and selling them - she buys food for the Foodbank with the proceeds - lot's of people donating in lieu of their shopping donations - thank you- #localheroes #foodbanks @WHEGrinstead

@MidSussexPolice Over 80 gas cartridges in the lower car park this morning, many more on the grass, fire pit still glowing. More patrols needed. @egcouncil cleared up the mess, yet again.

Like many charities our income has been almost wiped out since lockdown began. If you are able to spare a little please donate via JustGiving justgiving.com/ageukeastgrins… and help us support the older members of the community across #EastGrinstead and the surrounding area #staysafe

A view of Hackenden Lane, with a bridge over the railway on the left and Cooks Pond Viaduct on the right. Taken in 1908, this image was used on a postcard sent to a Mrs Taylor of Shovelshrode Beacon, possibly from her sister, May, talking about a recent trip to the seaside.

@TeamKnowhowUK Of course, DM sent.
