on here twenties

Christmas tv included a Norwegian Bob and Paul festive special, Ted the dog appearing was so heavily signposted it was hardly a surprise.  Considerably more subtle in Detectorists was Professor Alice Roberts' slightly out of focus and unremarked appearance (around 1:04:24) on the steps of the British Museum.  Already nostalgic to see the now gone Framlingham St Michael's Rooms.

Have a good one, see you on the other side ...

Our thanks to the more than one digest reader who have pointed out the new drop dead date for swapping stamps is effectively 31 July.  See What happens if I use a non-barcoded stamp after 31 January way down the Royal Mail page.

Prompted by the arrival of our exchange postage stamps and a bought book of second class we've done maybe half of our Christmas cards.  The book of second class was cheaper than we anticipated but then it only contained eight not a dozen stamps.  Remember send in your non-digital non-pictorial stamps by 31 January, download the form here.

The East African Daily Times has recalled its Ukrainian reporter Venutia Cratpole because in six months she hasn't filed anything about ITFC or that there Ed Sheraton.  Venutia is due back Tuesday and will be reassigned as the EADT's Co-op and Posh Boys correspondent.

Elizabeth II  1926-2022.

As predicted we now have a tv and radio page.

Eleven years since we lost Fish, still missed.

People are always interested in house prices and near the coast is no different and though it's not news it's new to us that the Poachers Pocket changed hands last year ... been a while.

We're fifteen today which in Internet years is about 180.

How to tell if a photograph is Art.

Our very grateful thanks to supporter Peter for buying us a trio of coffees.  He points out that at the end of the month the Torch Relay manages to swerve around Bredfield.

L♥VE this, geographically not near the coast but we've had looks exactly like it.

Echoing Pancakes and St David doubling up at the month's beginning today is Mothering Sunday and the clocks have gone forward.

Crikey!  Wednesday's digest is being surprisingly popular in Sweden, order your free copy here.

Crikey!  The Norwich Devils Women have bought us a whole handful of coffees, how very kind.  Their season starts in May and they host a four team tournament in Norwich and July.

  St David's and Pancake Day are double teaming today.

Planning a witch ducking this spring?  No longer a legal obligation to wear a mask plus you're welcome to promote your event on here.

Your bippy (sweet or other wise) is your bum, who knew?

Happy New Year ... it's gotta be better than the last one eh!

In a previous life we were NaTCH Engineering making the NaTKiT loudspeaker production test system.  To make our life a little easier we've moved the support web site on board here.  Still a load of tidying to do ...

Perhaps it's time for the bulletin board to fade away, here's why ...

To be picky it's parking meters but two metres, it's not the meteric system.  While we're here it's less rain but fewer raindrops.

Saturday morning we finally got to hear all of the Pirates Sketch prioritise objectives damn your eyes.

We've renamed the roller derby section rolling to make it more inclusive.

Last night's Radio 3 seven o'clock mixtape was just unaccompanied singing and included classical, doowop, and world music ... just brilliant!

We're thirteen today, our face has suddenly broken out in spots.

Tomorrow is St George's Day, patron saint of England ... Georgia, Ethiopia, Catalonia, Balearic Islands ...

I was under strict instructions to go straight home as Mummy was roasting an ox.

Past astonishers have their own page.

Recall our space exclamations rant?  Radio 3 presenter Petroc Trelawney is doing it.  The spaces between words show where the words start and end though this doesn't necessarily apply to Suffolk roadside signs FOR SALE  Bare Roothedging.  A full stop/exclamation shows where a sentence ends and by placing a space before it you're confusing things ... but we wouldn't break social distancing to argue this.

Why do some peeps put a space between the last word in a sentence and question or exclamation marks ?!  You wouldn't do it with a full stop .

It's Twelfth Night so we've taken the fairy lights out of the front garden to be deployed later in the back garden and cleared the mantelpiece by binning those cards that aren't handmade.

The Church of England is so concerned about Brexit that they've issued a prophet warning ... sorry, we do apologise.
