Welcome to the Our Town Has Plenty podcast, we are your hosts Caf and Patsy. We focus on local events, news, and happenings in, and around Hastings and St. Leonards. We enjoy a good chat to discuss a range of topics, including local event, markets, community gardens, and regional traditions. We aim to provide information and connect the dots within our community and celebrate the varying wide range of talent that our region has to offer.
Poker playing chefs, painted pianos & other stories…

Nestled in our beloved Tonka on the seafront we were treated to a delicious breakfast by our very generous host, Kim Duke. Mary Valentine brought delicious smells, Rosa Amor enthused us all with Hastings International Piano Competition and Sophie Malpas’ playful paint splattered wellies made us smile. Mike sang and co-hosted like a boss.
A huge thank you to Kimberely Duke for hosting us at Tonka.
