This Weekend & 2 Festivals...

Just noticed my last blog, about the Old Town Walk, has had over 450 views, so I thought I'd start this blog with notice of the 1066 Walking Festival...

Indeed, the 1066 Walking Festival (Saturday 19th to Sunday 27th of May 2018 - website) kicks off with another guided walk organised by the Old Hastings Preservation Society (OHPS), this time their Stade Guided Walk (website). If you wish to participate, you need to meet up outside Hastings Fishermen's Museum, Rock-a-Nore Road, at 11.00am on Saturday (meet indoors in inclement weather, but the forecast looks good - Met Office). You will be led on this tour of the Stade Fishing Quarter by an experienced volunteer from the Fishermen's Museum, and it usually lasts between 60 and 90 minutes. Strong shoes are advised, and if, like me, you burn easily, a hat and/or Factor 50 might be advisable. The walk is free, but any donations to Hastings Fishermen's Museum would be very much appreciated, many thanks!


And starting tomorrow (Friday) until Sunday, at the adjacent Stade Open Space, is the Sussex Street Food Festival organised by Street Food Warehouse (website). This event is free to enter, open from 12 noon to 10pm each day, and provides a wide range of cuisine, from Japan, Thailand and India, to the Americas, and 'delicious drinks' of course, including cool craft beers and cocktails, enjoy your weekend!
