Surprisingly a medley of twist songs prompted the most fulsome and energetic dancing.
th 19 Dec 2019	Charsfield *– Mercedes colliding with horse failed to stop* Police are appealing for witnesses after a vehicle failed to stop following a collision in Charsfield. The incident occurred shortly after 3.35pm today, Thursday 19 December, on the B1078, Ipswich Road.

His words were applauded and stickers and dayglo bags distributed, but the hot bit is the school's own road safety officers Charlotte and George joined Christian outside to speed check passing traffic. In the school's quietly idyllic setting not a lot of cars but enough to practice on.
th 13 Oct 2005 Bangers & Cash	Charsfield Horseshoes des' dinners 52 Straightforward menu, four real beers which change regularly and Emma and Martin have made the pub over so it feels brighter, more open and fresher. Lunchers were Matt, NaTCH, The Brewer's Mum and The Brewer who much interested NaTCH with the news that Andy Tiernan over the weekend had bought at a German auction a 1915 2.5ltr French motorbike set up for pacing bicycle racing. As soon as he got home NaTCH went round to Andy's and photographed the exotic thing. AfAR from Hugh who's on the Isle of Skye. (previous visit ↓ subsequent lunch previous lunch)
tu 10 Jun 2003	Charsfield Horseshoes des' dinners 37 Again there was a faint air of chaos about Spadge, Goddess Steph, Matt and NaTCH as they reversed into the Horseshoes' car park. Gargantuan servings of stir fry vegetables, and steak and kidney pie defeated them all, whilst on form London Pride (in suitably badged glasses) was enjoyed, Abbot and Adnams also being served. Conversation included the unlikely fact that Spadge met the late Queen Mother by gate crashing a party. No, we didn't believe it either but apparently it's true. AfARs from Hugh, David (work commitments), and possibly others. (previous visit ↓ subsequent lunch previous lunch)
we 14 Feb 2001	Charsfield Horseshoes des' dinners 11 A nice sunny day for attendees Andy and NaTCH. Excellent and generous food. The Speckled Hen was a bit disappointing and the coffee gutless but the Low House bitter was fine. Conversation included "Why is Town's new PA costing a quarter of a million?" and Andy's discovery as a nipper that in Belfast fish and chips is served with fruit ... a slice of lemon. Apologies for absence received from Hugh (he now has offices in Ipswich and is going to find it difficult to attend future lunches), Spadge (entertaining overseas customer) and John FH (unwell). (first visit subsequent lunch previous lunch)
