ASTONISHER No.43:  Gregg Allman was married to Cher?!  He was married seven times so presumably her turn had to come round at some point.

1:00pm:  Cash only in the Framlingham Co-op ... unforeseen circumstances.

Yesterday's Bury Saints v London Olympians in Thetford was full of incident including starting 45 minutes late because the medic couldn't find the venue.  The refs ended the game early because an injured player on the field couldn't be moved until an ambulance arrived so we're uncertain of the score but certainly an Olympians win.

Though it kept trying to rain yesterday for the Ipswich Cardinals v Norwich Devils in Ipswich the real problem was a swirling wind but it didn't stop long passes or seemingly disrupt kicking though both teams had kicks blocked.  A very decent sized crowd for an East Anglian derby made possible by the Devils' return to the league this year.  The Cards won 21-14 despite managing 30 yards in penalties on a single play.  The Cards at home again next weekend to the Essex Spartans.

Perhaps we haven't looked hard enough but in twenty years never seen anyone in the Christian Science reading rooms in Fore Street Framlingham so this doesn't surprise us a lot.

The Stradbroke website has pointed out that the Spar shop's franchisee is changing and that could account for the shelves not bursting last weekend.
