I’m no longer editing the Sussex Drinker; the new editor, Dave Muggleton, has produced an edition but hasn’t yet been able to get a final PDF version from the printers. It’ll appear here when he does…

Social, starting at the Foresters, Graffham at 8:45. Then on to the White Horse.

Social, starting at the Old Barn, Felpham at 8:45. Then on to the George, before finishing at a third pub (to be determined).

Social, starting at the Sussex Brewery, Hermitage at 8:45. Then on to the Hare & Hounds, Stoughton.

Social, starting at the Crown & Anchor, Del Quay at 8:45. Then on to the Ship at Itchenor.

Note that there’s no formal meeting this month as most people are on holiday or working at the Great British Beer Festival.

…you’re seeing the new version of the site. Yay.

Once this is starting to show up for people, I’ll upload the new branch diaries…

We’ll be changing hosting provider in the next week, including moving our domain registration. When the registration is moved to point at the new site, it may take 24–48 hours for the change to propagate throughout the Internet; until the changes reach you, you may end up seeing the old version of the site.

If something goes wrong, the site may be unavailable for a period, or may be flaky for a while once the new version’s up. Hopefully nothing will go wrong, but we are talking about computers here…

A minor change to the privacy / legal page, also reflected on the contact page.

Due to a certain organisation (which had, perhaps, better remain nameless for now) accessing CAMRA websites the length and breadth of the land, copying any email addresses they can find, and adding these email addresses to a mailing list without the permission of the recipients, I’ve changed these pages to reflect the situation:

These pages are maintained by volunteers, using their own resources and mostly at their own expense. Any email addresses published go to private systems, not CAMRA systems, even if the address ends with @westernsussexcamra.org.uk.

By accessing these pages, you agree that email addresses found on this site are private, non-business email addresses (unless explicitly noted as otherwise) and you agree that you will not send unsolicited advertising, sign them up to mailing lists, or otherwise treat these addresses as anything other than Personal Data as defined in the Data Protection Act, and thus requiring specific opt-in for business mailings.!

The Sussex Branches meeting, hosted by North Sussex branch, will be at the White Horse, Maplehurst at 12:00.

Social, starting at the Mill Tavern, Camelsdale at 8:45.

Then on to the Red Lion, Fernhurst, finishing at either the King’s Arms or the Duke of Cumberland Arms.
