Not in our backyard

West Sussex Waste Local Plan 2013 map: the yellow stars are the bad news.
In a pattern we will doubtless see more of, rubbish from the National Park bits of West Sussex will get shipped to locations in the non National Park bits for disposal. A consultation process is about to start so if you want to argue that garbage from Fulking should just be dumped in a field between Perching Drove and Clappers Lane, then that’s probably the appropriate forum in which to make your case.

Small Dole bakery loses £20k

Truffles phished at NatWest
The Shoreham Herald is reporting:

Small Dole firm Truffles bakery, which has branches in Shoreham and Steyning, lost £19,600 when its NatWest account was raided in a phishing scam. .. Criminals got into the company’s computer using a virus planted in a fake email from HMRC. When the email was opened, the fraudsters could view data being input on the computer, including the firm’s online-banking password and pin code. .. General manager Gabby Taylor made an online payment on Friday, September 20, and found on the Monday morning the money had gone. .. She said: “We are gutted. We employ nearly 200 local people who are paid weekly and this has taken a huge amount out of our cash flow”.
