th 23 Sep 2010	Next Wednesday Haverhill Arts Centre are showing the BFI restored print of Went The Day Well? (sounds like Shakespeare but isn't). As a wartime black and white it is a bit Don't tell him Pike! and the Germans are universally horrid but still a powerful film.

we 1 Sep 2010	42 year old Simon Adams has been missing from Wenhaston since yesterday.

fr 6 Aug 2010	The Brandeston Queen's wants you to know they are on Twitter, you can buy their chutneys in Leo's Deli Framlingham, Grange Farm Shop Hasketon and Procter's Sausages in The Walk Ipswich, and they are looking for a sous chef or chef de partie.
tu 27 Jul 2010	We are told Saturday's formal opening of the Bruisyard village hall was attended by several hundred, somewhat fewer Sunday. The hall is intimidatingly pristine with three French windows and a kitchen serving hatch accessing the outside where impressively the lighting is solar powered LED and movement triggered. The hall stands on a field bought by the parish council in 1995 when the village's agricultural engineers went bust ... what a good decision that's turned out to be ... buying the field that is, not going bust. More pix on Facebook.

sa 1 May 2010	Central Suffolk Lib-Dem candidate Andrew Aalders-Dunthorne was canvassing in The Bealings yesterday but we couldn't find him (poor mobile reception); regrettable because graphically on the Internet he's the invisible man. Not a wasted afternoon though as The Bealings are utterly charming, a cobweb of tiny lanes that sometimes make you feel you've wandered onto someone's drive, a pub, a railway station ignored by trains since 1956 but it must have featured in a Miss Marple, and a small but perfectly formed church hall.
fr 30 Apr 2010	Coastal Suffolk Conservative candidate Therese (it's French) Coffey lives in Westleton so she can't get Channel 5 or Freeview and no doubt rubbish broadband. When she asked BT why near the coast broadband is so rubbish so close to BT's research centre they said Oh, their broadband is rubbish too. We found out yesterday at the Martlesham Black Tiles that Therese has stood as an mp once before, her rescued dog Rizzo is very patient, when she ordered the panini she hadn't realised it came with chips, and is very aware this time round she's not a shoo in.
