Vocal Explosion in St. Clement’s Church
We found ourselves last night in St. Clement’s Church, in Hastings Old Town, to hear a programme of gypsy music from the community choir Vocal Explosion. We hadn’t ventured inside this fourteenth-century gem before, but had read about its refurbishment (which aroused the usual mix of “they’ve ruined a lovely church” and “what an improvement on what was there before”). Antony Mair writes.

Anniversary: a year on down The Arches
An article to celebrate the brainchild of Esther Johnson, who responded to a gap in the market by creating an independent, fully equipped, printmaking studio – the first of its kind in Hastings.

Greg Barker is a minister of state at the Department of Energy & Climate Change. Christina Lucey reports the encounter.

A splendid night at Club Splendide
Bevali Francis reports that a splendid night was had by all at St Leonards’ mobile comedy club. The night was called ‘I can’t believe it’s not smuttier!’, a comedy cabaret held at the ambient vegan restaurant Moose’s Kitchen.
