It was great to see the marathon runners racing through our streets on a bright but very cold day (but only the onlookers felt cold). Congratulations to all who took part. At least one North Laine resident, Naomi Collier, was one of the approximately 4,000 who completed the course and raised much appreciated revenue for the Sussex Beacon. Very well done!
