At the end of next month Claire Weston and the Suffolk Singers present Summer Serenade in Aldeburgh Parish Church.  We last visited the church during the 2010 general election and slighty more recently enjoyed the Suffolk Singers in Debenham.

Last year in Framlingham.

Today in Framlingham a Plant Sale in the United Free and a Makers Market in the Unitarian (that's the one in Bridge Street).

Today the twice(ish) a month digest emailed out to the 1800+ ntcers on the list ... click Jaques Tati to go on the list.

Remember Roy at the Framlingham Crown (yes, he owes us money too), the Ladies Night, when the Crown had no gas and the NewYear's Eves congas?  We've moved stuff about and now there's a Framlingham Crown section going back to 2004.

♫ Tonight Spring Serenade at Farnham Church with fizz and canapés beforehand.

Here in what was the industrial South of Framlingham the broadband has been down for some 20 hours.  If you're getting Internet on your mobile phone you may be able to use the phone as a modem for your computer.  It's might be called tethering or possibly hotspot.  Use your mobile to Google using <mymobilephone> as a modem.  If you succeed your computer will be using your mobile's data allowance.

♫ Baron Du Dongleur's open mike at the Framlingham Castle Inn 9pm tonight.

Yesterday in Cambridge some twenty four Bury Saints outnumbered maybe two to one by hosts the Cambridge Cats had a very honourable 10-18 loss.  Two men with mobile phones were broadcasting the game live on student radio station Cam FM and a first for us, at the game end the refs understandably applauded the players.

TODAY Classic Bike Meet and Auto Jumble at the Lophams (it's the other side of Diss) Village Hall.

In Framlingham the oak tree on a bit of grass by the footpath to the Elms car park fell down yesterday afternoon thankfully without injury except to a fence.  Reportedly it collapsed gracefully.

We have the handbill for the 1952 British Rail special run for the Framlingham Gala (poignant as regular passenger services to Fram ended in the October of that year) but we've mislaid the 1950s Gala prog offering a bicycle as the raffle's first prize and a running race class for unmarried ladies only.
