But rickets is making a comeback.


The AJ is by subscription so I can't read the link, but on the face of it this is excellent news.


Might help with the rickets too (short duration maximum skin exposure in the right season and time of day), unless people go overboard with the sunscreen.

Not being able to read the AJ piece, but being curious about this project, I had a quick Google.


After reading about Studio Octopi's proposals for floating freshwater swimming pools in the Thames, I wonder what might happen on the Rye. I mean, I was imagining a basic 'dig pool, add changing room and vending machine' effort which would be fine, but my expectations are now spiralling wildly.

Using that link didn't work but finding the article directly through Google does (I've never visited the AJ site before, maybe that's why).


The most interesting bit:


"The plans include a 50m heated pool surrounded by smaller natural pools that would draw water from the underground River Peck which runs directly beneath the site.


Alongside the pools would be single?storey pavilions housing a gym, caf? and community space."


Heated pool - take that, Brockwell!

      Car crashed into lamp post opposite coop , I hope no one was hurt ?

      I think it's in a pretty dangerous position, so amazed the Police or parking authorities haven't removed it. It's illegal to park on the zigzag markings by a crossing and for very good reasons, so actually being in the middle of the crossing is far worse...

      Because much of the assets have already been stripped and the big dividends already paid out. The big money has been made.  The costs going forward to repair the failing infrastructure is going to be huge and the that cost could fall to the taxpayer.

      Hiya, I'm trying to get hold of a reasonably priced Xbox one controller if anyone has one collecting dust.  Thanks
