Aldeburgh is a coastal town in Suffolk where not everyone is barking

fr 12 jn 09	The Aldeburgh Festival starts today and don't forget there's a discount for nearthecoasters.
mo 1 jn 09	Despite liking, as Duncan puts it, arty films we're a bit of a scaredy cat when it comes to anything too modern in the way of classical. So for this month's Aldeburgh Festival we would probably plump for the St Mathew Passion, a dash of Debussy or (bit daring for us) the Ensemble Basiani ... but brilliantly this year there's a discount for just saying nearthecoast when booking tickets so maybe we will try out the Birtwistle. Thanks Marc and more info here.
th 21 my 09	The Aldeburgh Documentary Film Festival will be later this year; provisional dates are 13-15 November or 20-22 November.

fr 6 mr 09	Some house sales in Framlingham and positively buoyant in Aldeburgh.
th 26 fe 09	The woman cyclist killed in Aldeburgh last night was pushing her bike on the pavement.
mo 16 fe 09	Another club break in but this time in Aldeburgh.
mo 9 fe 09	We went to Aldeburgh yesterday to stretch our legs and as we got out of the car a Spitfire was stunting above the beach. By the time we'd got a long lens on it had beggared off ... so we had to make do with this microlite instead.
we 14 ja 09	Our word! That wind was cold in Aldeburgh Sunday.
fr 9 ja 09	It was certainly foggy today and it got worse as we approached Aldeburgh. Ah, it's because Aldeburgh's on the coast and yes indeed when we got to Aldeburgh all the fog disappeared and the sun came out, still couldn't park though ... even out of season. The Jubilee Hall was packed and maybe a dozen optimists queuing in hope of returns for the first Friday lunchtime concert of the year. The Ensemble Diderot are a period instrument playing quartet who well entertained finishing with Vivaldi's Follia containing some frenetic activity for the cello and player Tomaz Pokrzywinski never dropped a lick! The season continues until Friday 13th March.
