Road Closure for Resurfacing from this evening - A259

From 19.00 hours this evening to 06.00 hours in the morning, and between the same times overnight for the next 3 weeks, the A259 will be closed to traffic in Hastings old town, stretching between the seafront and up The Bourne to Old London Road. A diversionary route will be in place via Priory Road, Mount Pleasant Road and Elphinstone Road; access for residents will be possible from the Old London Road/Priory Road junction to 100 metres north of the High Street (website).

East Sussex County Council say this is part of their continuing improvement of East Sussex roads and this particular work should continue until the 22nd of March, weather permitting. Not the worst road in the area, I'd suggest...😕

Be aware folks, there are going to be likely delays...

Wasting water?

I first saw water discharging here 2 days ago, coming down from the West Hill into Old London Road, and it was still draining out today, and that's a lot of water! 

And this is where it is draining from, though it wasn't really, because I found someone working there today who explained what was going on... the reservoir uphill is being cleaned out, and the water coming out now (about 2pm) was close to the bottom of the reservoir, and pretty muddy too, so soon to be turned off!

Interbred Fox in Hastings?

No, not this one (this is an image from google), but I've seen a fox with a completely pale grey torso, young and with fluffy face and legs, definitely very healthy. Now, it's probably just some genetic throwback regarding the colour of the animal, but it appears that foxes and dogs can interbreed, though rarely seen; if so, any offspring would not be able breed due to dogs and foxes having a different number of chromosomes.

I saw this one when I was walking down from the West Hill into Old London Road near midday, and hadn't mentioned it until someone else confirmed they had seen him/her, though it appeared to be male to me size-wise... Has anyone else seen similar, and/or have you any photographs you could share please?
