Tragedy!  Long term Framlingham.market trader Chrissie will now only be attending at Christmas and other special days.  We recall one absolutely freezing Saturday she came into The Crown and removed three anoraks ... we will be missing her superior eggs.

For today's Framlingham Flyers 10k the start moved from the usual New Road to outside The Crown on the Market Hill.  By the time the race had got to the right turn into Castle Street Fram Flyer Andrew Rooke had already put distance between himself and the bunch, not surprisingly he went on to win.  We were impressed by Andrew's veteran team mate Adam Howlett's fourth place and as always the cheerful endeavour of the back markers.

We can quite understand that when you've cycled a hundred miles a short cut must be very appealing but we were a little surprised early yesterday morning to see two Dun Runners sneaking across the Framlingham Fen Meadow.  Later in Fore Street we saw more Dun Runners emerging from Fairfield Road:)
