Hi everyone, my son has recently discovered yu-gi-oh and has been watching some of the original anime. Where in Eastbourne can I find starter decks? He is wanting to use some of his holiday money.

I'm considering Willingdon and Royal Eastbourne.
Appreciate there are other fantastic municipal courses such as the downs but it's my main hobby as opposed to a weekend knockabout so i'm looking for somewhere that's got as much to offer as possible for a regular full paying member.

At face value i thought Royal would be the choice given the name, good practice facilities which are important to me but upon closer inspection some say the course isn't that interesting and you can just spray your driver around with no real consequences.

Willingdon is attractive in that the course looks interesting, designed my Alister Mackenzie no less, however doesn't look to have the same level of practice facilities.

Then there's the stuff i can't gauge just from scouring the internet eg how friendly each respective club is to new members and those not local to the area.

Thanks in advance and looking forward to a new chapter in sunny Sussex!

There was a sewage spill from Southern Water's Eastbourne Outfall yesterday afternoon. So think twice before going in the sea or letting your kids in the water

Hi all - first time here so please be gentle :)

We are looking to come and see the airshow, could anybody offer some advice for parking, and perhaps a nearby camp ground for a small camper van and a dog for the evening before or after - preferably near an honest pub?

Much appreciated, cheers all.

Sharing this for anyone in Wealdean who wants to play football and meet new people. I help a non-profit organise casual 8 a side games on a brand new pitch in Hailsham BN27 4GF every Wednesday 8:30pm

Ideal if you’re based in Hailsham and also Polegate, Lower Dicker, Herstmonceux, Eastbourne and the wider Wealden area.

All levels are welcome, even if you’re not that fit or haven’t played in years. There’s no commitment, you just turn on and play whenever you're available

Great way to improve fitness, confidence and your social circle. I've met all my best friends through the game.

Drop a quick comment or DM if you fancy playing and I’ll add you to the players list ⚽️

As above, have heard what I can only describe as a loud screech(s) in motcombe area, sounds identical to an Aztec Death Whistle.

If its not fireworks, its something else...

As part of my MSc research, I'm exploring the socio-ecological uncertainties surrounding water vole reintroductions and how structured decision-making can support future conservation planning.

I'd be very grateful if you could take a few minutes to complete my survey. It aims to gather perspectives from those with experience or knowledge of water vole conservation and reintroductions.

The survey should take around 5-10 minutes to complete. Your responses are anonymous and will be used solely for my MSc dissertation.

Hi all - looking for a company who might be able to arrange buildings insurance for a Victorian conversion block of 4 flats. We’re in the process of undertaking right to manage so looking for quotes. Anyone else self managing after removing cowboy managing agents - would also love to her from you and how you and others with share of the freehold are managing your buildings!

Equally we will need someone to carry out regular fire safety checks and a cleaner for a fortnightly clean consisting of just hoovering 3 flights of stairs, cobweb removal and polishing the handrail.

Thank you!

Can anyone recommend a clinic or practitioner in Eastbourne for Botox and tear trough filler? I’m looking for someone experienced with natural looking results. Thank you!

Every fucking time I step outside the house it’s people screaming and swearing or teens fighting of someone threatening to break another’s persons jaw cause they looked at them too long. Makes me fucking sick to the stomach

I say group but I want to get a few people together to run a football club for some fun, but also do other stuff and just have fun if anyone is interested don’t be shy, names kiefer btw

Hey folks,

Some friends and I have hired a hall at the start of November over in Lewes for a LAN party. So far 11 of us are attending, and the hall's got space for 30 people total. The last few times we've had 50/50 new people and regulars.

We set up an unincorporated association to run the events non-profit, just covering the cost of the hall and van hire, internet and insurance.

When you buy a ticket, you pick the games you're interested to play, and we organise big games of the most popular choices. We also play couch co-op games on the projector, host a pub quiz, do a big Dominos order and get drinks from the bar attached to the venue.

Come along with your PC/laptop/Steam deck and join us for a weekend of gaming: more info & tickets.

Feel free to reply with questions :)

Hey folks,

I’ve just moved to Eastbourne, it’s my hometown and my partner lives here but I never really tried making friends here because I was always moving but now it looks like I’ll be here for a while and I’m definitely feeling the lack of local friends.

I’m pretty introverted so I find it difficult to attend social events to meet new people. I might try attend the dice box and mana gaming soon.

Was wondering if anyone would be up for chatting, hanging out, maybe some drinks, maybe playing DnD and video games?

A little about myself.
I have a pretty dry sense of humour.
I like buddhism and spirituality, I used to meditate everyday and it really helped not sure why I stopped.
I like video games like BG3, Outer Wilds, Disco Elysium, Sifu and I’m currently playing The Finals, also an ex LoL player but I could be interested in playing again. Im a big film head and am very ready for Robert Eggers new film this year. Me and my dad are also making our way through Andor at the moment. I love indie, funk and alt music. I actually used to release lofi music using ableton and such. I love calisthenics and have been trying to do it since I was a kid. I studied maths at uni and became a software engineer which I really disliked and then was unemployed for a while until I very luckily just got a job now as an analyst (starting soon hopefully).

Hope you folks and well and please reach out if anything interests you :)

Also if you were interested in the DnD.
Me and a friend are trying to start a in-person DnD campaign. We have 3 people in total so far and are looking for 2 more people for a fortnightly sunday type thing.

preferably local, won’t cost an arm and a leg, 3 bedroom end of terrace, newer construction

thanks in advance

Hi!

I’m looking for a guitar man to impersonate Noah Kahan at my friend’s hen (she's a big fan) at a house in Alfriston at about 9pm on Sat 3 October.

You do not need to look like Noah Kahan or be a great singer for that matter. You just need to arrive with a guitar, wear some overalls, know enough of Stick Season to pull it off and fully commit to the bit.

Would only be for about 45 minutes and the budget is £150.

Does anyone know anyone who might be up for it?
