Whose idea was it to put up the stoneclad rockery that "welcomes" visitors to Brighton at the top of London Road? Besides the rather bizarre idea of welcoming people to two towns simultaneously, the sign is ugly, cheap-looking and tatty. Wouldn't it have been more interesting to commission a local sculptor to design something?

Want a docoder?

I have taken up the offer of a free Sky digital box, but does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do with my old, larger- style satellite dish and decoder? It seems such a waste to throw it away.
