We broke open Breaky Bottom!
14.06.2010
A bunch of walkers from as far away as Dorset and the Chilterns walked the forbidden Access Land site of Breaky Bottom farm and vineyard, near Rodmell, East Sussex, on Saturday.
And they said "two fingers to the selfish landowner who wishes to remove a right of access that has taken 130 years to secure".

Titnore Woods - amazing victory! But...
IN A TOTALLY unexpected move, Worthing borough councillors have thrown out the 875-home housing scheme threatening Titnore Woods.
They had been recommended to approve the plans and there was little suggestion that the Tory-run authority had any thought of saying no to the property developers.
New Tescos at Titnore, Worthing Attacked
In the early hours of Monday morning, the new Tescos by Titnore Woods protest site was attacked. The locks were super glued and the messages "TESCOS SUCKS" and quite simply "Go away" were spraypainted accross the windows of the front entrance.
Shortly afterwards one person was arrested and is waiting to be charged. Most likely to be joint enterprise of criminal damage.
