Re: Magazine Mayo Wynne Baxter 3 Bell Lane Lewes East Sussex BN7 1JU www.remagazine.co.uk Editor Jason Edge [email protected] Deputy Editor Liza Laws [email protected] Advertising Richard Beeforth [email protected] Follow us on Twitter: k @MWBremagazine Welcome Peter Buckingham and Howard Lewis from the Brighton Hilton Metropole with me at the SF&DA What a wash out! The weatherman’s prediction for the worst winter in more than 60 years with polar conditions wasn’t quite right but it has certainly been one of the wettest with some dramatic scenes across the Sussex coastline. John Clarke shares his recent trip to South Africa with us in our regular Where we’ve been feature and we have stories on cruising, buying property and inventions from SA. Like us on Facebook: f MWBremagazine As Spring starts to show itself and you start to finally dry out we have another bumper issue to bring some light relief. The chief executive of Brighton Dome & Festival, Andrew Comben, talks about the exciting £35m development plans for the iconic Royal Pavilion Estate. Disclaimer Re: Magazine is published by Mayo Wynne Baxter, one of the region’s leading law firms with offices across Sussex. I’ve been busy helping judge the Sussex Food & Drink Awards – it’s a tough job but someone has to do it! A few new faces have joined the Mayo Wynne Baxter team since last issue and we introduce them to you on pages 20 & 21. All articles, letters and photos sent to Re: Magazine will be treated as offered unconditionally for publication and copyright purposes and are subject to editing and comments by the editorial team. Please ensure that all photos have credits attached if necessary. Liza met up with Mr Lurve - Ambrose Harcourt - for an interview with the man who may well be responsible for cementing thousands of relationships in Sussex over the past 20 years. His instantly recognisable voice has graced the airwaves of many radio stations but most people will know him from Southern FM and more recently Juice 107.2. As always we have the usual mix of stories about the laws that could affect you or your business and a few stories about what we have been up to in the community including some of our fundraising activities and sponsorships.

We also had planned to interview Les Dennis who was in Brighton recently starring in Peter James’ play Perfect Murder. Unfortunately this happened to coincide with breaking news that Les was joining the cast of Coronation Street and we couldn’t get the diaries to work once the media frenzy had begun. Here’s to dryer times! Jason Edge Editor It’s always a bit manic in the Re: Magazine office around deadline and we occasionally miss the odd typo so if you spot one, do let me know. I hope that you enjoy this issue and as always I’d love to hear what you think of Re: Magazine so please drop me a line at [email protected] 1
