A film crew (well, two people) in Double Street Framlingham filming (not surprisingly eh?) the advent windows.  This year's charities are the Ipswich Hospital Children's Appeal and Save the Children.

♫ We're very please to welcome back Garth Brooks' separated at birth twin brother Man in the Hat who can be seen Christmasing in the Framlingham post office.  MitH will be welcoming the New Year in Norfolk ... well somebody has to.

TODAY is last posting second class in time for Christmas (Friday for first class) and it may be Christmas next week but house prices are still interesting, active in Framlingham and Wickham Market.

Geese in Crown and Anchor Alley Framlingham?

Christmas' advent windows in Double Street Framlingham raised £933.25 for the Ipswich Hospital Children's Appeal and Save the Children.  That's nearly 50% more than 2018's £640.

Regrettably we couldn't stay long for today's Peter Pan in Framlingham but there was an incredibly supportive audience, as last year impressive lighting effects and twirling on off ice roller skates from all ages.

We were pleased to see the dress rehearsal Framlingham's Off-Ice Skating Club's Christmas show Peter Pan.  Like last year's show this year's is charming and has lots of impressive lighting effect.  More info and tickets from pippatigerlove@talktalk.net.

What's now flats on the corner of Crown and Anchor Alley and Fore Street Framlingham was a brewery.  Brewer and elder George Brooke Kerr declared bankruptcy in February 1832.  This card shows George owned a surprising amount of property and two roads have since changed their name.

Political discussion on the Fen Meadow Framlingham ... well it is Suffolk.

It's the Framlingham Flyers cross country this Sunday.  It will start on the Castle Meadow though we're a bit vague about the time.  A water person at this year's 10k told us the route was changed slightly last year but surely it will still include the perilous swoop down into the castle moat.

Designated Public Place Orders (DPPOs) were enacted in a bunch of near the coast towns over ten years ago.  They aren't simple drinking bans, it's not illegal to have wine with a picnic as long as a copper doesn't ask you stop ... read the question.  DPPOs have been replaced by Public Space Protection Orders and last month East Suffolk Council resolved (didn't they vote?) to remove the DPPOs (number seven in the minutes).  Impressively they also thought to remove the signs that imply Framlingham Fen Meadow is the haunt of drunken muggers rather than sober(ish) dog walkers.
