Felixstowe

we 24 Jul 2019	Surprising that some persons think they can in a Felixstowe afternoon harass a teenage girl and get away with it ... maybe he will.
fr 21 Jun 2019	Today is the summer solstice and St Elizabeth Hospice will be lighting 5,000 candles in Felixstowe as Suffolk Remembers. You can dedicate a candle to a memory for a suggested five pound donation.
we 26 Dec 2018	There was a very heavy frost in Framlingham yesterday Christmas morning. Defrosting the car took at least 15 minutes contributing to us arriving 30 seconds late for the Felixstowe Christmas Dip a St Elizabeth Hospice fund raiser. 30 seconds is relevant as understandably a lot of the dippers don't stay in that long. We spent a lot of time fending off mince pies as did this police officer who was surprisingly chatty ... perhaps a bit bored.
fr 23 Nov 2018	It will be the 15th annual Felixstowe Christmas Day Dip this year. It was brilliant fun when we snapped it a few years back, we even got our feet wet through the holes in our crocs.
tu 12 Jun 2018	Expect delays and parking difficulties when the Women's Tour of Britain starts in Framlingham tomorrow (we enjoyed the 2014 stage start in Felixstowe), takes a turn around near the coast, returns to Framlingham and then goes on to finish in Southwold.

th 6 Apr 2017	A 58 year old Felixstowe woman has been arrested on suspicion of theft and what sounds like a small mountain of jewellery seized by police.
mo 25 Jul 2016	Wrabness on the south bank of the river Stour is Essex if only just. From there you can see Grayson Perry's A House for Essex against the cranes of Felixstowe port. From what we can make out Perry doesn't actually own the house ... can't say we're smitten.
sa 5 Mar 2016	JOB(S) Felixstowe Port is taking online applications for an engine apprentice (or possibly apprentices) starting August/September so would suit a school leaver (or leavers).
th 11 Feb 2016	The Aviva Women's Tour is returning to coastal Suffolk this summer for the third time. In 2014 it was a start in Felixstowe, an eventful 2015 finish in Aldeburgh and as it seems to be toggling between stage starts and arrivals a stage one departure in Southwold this June.
tu 19 Jan 2016	Crikey! The constabulary certainly stuck with this one, an Ipswich and a Felixstowe man are due to be charged with a Melton shop robbery in 2014.
tu 12 Jan 2016	Felixstowe's mayor Doreen Savage has emailed to tell us that the Christmas Day Dip had 352 dippers and raised in the region of £20,000 for the St Elizabeth Hospice. As dip registrations were five or ten pounds that's an impressive amount of sponsorship!
tu 29 Dec 2015	We survived Christmas despite getting up far too early Christmas morning and driving to Felixstowe in the dark to find the satnav had taken us to the part of the front where David Berry's cortege had assembled but no Christmas Dip. Fortunately some dog walkers put us right and though we were still far too early suddenly the Dip was upon us and it was rewarding to see the dipper's pleasure of achievement. The dip raised an unspecified number of thousands for the St Elizabeth Hospice.
fr 17 Jul 2015	St Elizabeth Hospice is holding a truck pull tomorrow afternoon in Felixstowe.
