  • Confusing lights are pointless too

    Your story on the traffic lights in New England Road in Brighton neglects to mention one of the most important points – the “straight on” lights are always green, and hence totally pointless. Still, never fear, our glorious council, always mindful

  • How stupid

    IN years past, when I was on beach lifeguard duty at Rottingdean and Saltdean, my motto was “Prevention”. With that in mind, should not those parents who allow their children to defy a Keep Off The Rocks sign by playing on slippery uneven groynes at

  • A great show

    I took my grandchildren to the Theatre Royal Christmas Show Peter Pan and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Although its a Christmas Show rather than a pantomime there was still enough audience participation to keep its appeal for the younger ones. Well

  • Missing lanes

    I refer to the contribution headed “Cycling Rules” by Mrs W R Charlton (Letters, December 10) and would like her to tell me where these wonderful cycle lanes are. Apart from the cycle lane along the seafront, which cyclists have to share with pedestrians

  • We need a grown-up debate on the future of air travel

    I would like to take the opportunity to clarify some of the comments attributed to the Brighton and Hove Economic Partnership in the article “Do we need a second runway at Gatwick” (The Argus, December 9). I didn’t say that a second runway would be
