KEITH NEWBERY Symbols help to put us all greatly under the weather
Sian Lloyd wafted her left hand seductively over the weather map and a swathe of middle Britain, from Anglesey to The Wash, was winsomely caressed.
KEITH NEWBERY So-called veto is revealed as just a cop-out...
Six weeks ago this column, in its humble and unassuming way, suggested David Cameron’s claim to have exercised a veto over the latest European treaty was not only delusional but a complete fallacy.
KEITH NEWBERY Richard Branson could have a point in his drugs stance
If alcohol and nicotine were to be discovered now, they would immediately be classified as dangerous drugs and, in all probability, banned.

DUNCAN BARKES What is it that drives so many people to drink?
Much has been written over the past few weeks about Britain’s drinking habits.
DUNCAN BARKES New rules of the road – for cars and cyclists
A national newspaper has just launched a campaign for safer cycling in London following the serious injury of one of its staff members. The campaign makes it clear the paper believes the fault lies at the wheel of the motorist, but I’m not sure that’s entirely true.
DUNCAN BARKES Are there any deserving cases for a bonus?
The recent witch hunt of Stephen Hester, the chief executive of the Royal Bank of Scotland, throws up some interesting questions about bonuses and fairness.
1 commentDUNCAN BARKES Awful reality that has taken over the telly
I was puzzled to learn the average amount of time we spend watching television is four hours a day. I struggle to watch this amount of telly on a weekly basis.
DUNCAN BARKES Would turning veggie be the best recipe for feeling fitter?
What price a chop? As a rampant carnivore I have become very aware that meat can do your body no favours at all. In fact, I am pondering the possibility of life as a vegetarian.

RICHARD WILLIAMSON Country Walk...Lavington Common
We much enjoyed this 2.5-mile (4kms) walk last week across National Trust heathland with fine views south to the Downs.
RICHARD WILLIAMSON Footsteps along the magnificent Sussex landscape
When I was asked to write a weekly walk for this newspaper six years ago, I thought ‘Oh super, I’ve walked the country from end to end and loved every minute and every metre – and hopefully everybody else will enjoy this superb landscape, too’.
RICHARD WILLIAMSON Nature Trails...A fishing trip sparks a trip back in time
It was a strange moment. I experienced a time-warp. I was on the banks of the River Test in Hampshire having been given a day’s fly-fishing for grayling. These are colourful salmonids, with a ‘coarse’ breeding season, with all the mystique of trout for devotees of the sport.
RICHARD WILLIAMSON Country Walk...Lavington Stud Farm
I’ve been 1,000 miles across Sussex on these walks and am still finding unexplored places. I have been all around Lavington Stud Farm but never through the middle.
RICHARD WILLIAMSON Nature Trails...This mighty hawk is penned by T White
My father gave me The Goshawk by TH White for my 16th birthday. The book comes to mind every time I see a circle of pigeon’s feathers in the woods as I wonder if these could indicate the presence of such a rare bird here in Sussex.

KELLY BROWN Mum’s The Word...The name of the game is choosing what he or she will be called
What’s in a name? Well if you are trying to decide what on Earth you should call a child you have never even met, then the answer is a lot.
KELLY BROWN Mum’s The Word...A little bit of cartoon magic can still go a very long way indeed
I don’t like it’, my little man said at the weekend after we introduced him to a little bit of classic Disney.
KELLY BROWN Mum’s the Word...Stereotypes will always be with us – and we all want to win
So a new study has shown women are better than men at parking in car parks.
KELLY BROWN Mum’s the Word...Deprived of my sleep, just when there is still so much to do...
My life is on a countdown at the moment – but my little man seems to have his own kind of clock. And it is leaving me exhausted.

LAURA CARTLEDGE Life’s Like That...Match up wages for footballers with benefits of the job – Simples!
Simple ideas are often the best. And I think I may have come up with one which is bordering on genius.
LAURA CARTLEDGE Life’s Like That...I went out for teabags but what I found was nipple tassels...
We all know what next Tuesday brings. Ordinary items have been decorated with hearts and higher price tags to celebrate.
LAURA CARTLEDGE Life’s like That...A missing sense of direction, or do I just lack confidence?
I passed my driving test in 2006 with just one minor. That’s not a boast; it’s the start of a confession.
