The Lee on the Solent HSBC bank closed at the end of November and though like Framlingham  there's a cash dispenser on the Co-op unlike Framlingham there isn't another bank.

Down New Road Framlingham where it turns right at the end of the college playing fields there's a green cabinet by the bridge over what is still the river Ore.  The cabinet supports a sensor under the bridge monitoring the river level and you can have it tweet you.

It's not just Framlingham that has a chippy called Rumbles, there's one in Ely looking very similar except it has just one door.

Just got to watch Detectorists on iPlayer and it's a gentle affectionate comedy and you get to see Emma Thompson's sister Sophie in a blond wig, Framlingham's Double Street, Panorama, St Mike's Rooms and the Castle Inn method acting as the Two Brewers (well it was a brewery once) but the opening scene is clearly east of the A12, episode two 10pm Thursday BBC4.

Anorak Alert 6:  A Victorian penny would have been legal tender up to 1971 so unlikely it would been in the ground for 150 years ... but then is that the way Andy would think?

Ladies in tutusSince we last saw Mouth to Mouth's production of the French farce Sganarelle it has inevitably moved on.  Dean Sore's mobile and maniacal washing up maid is still maniacal but now the scenery is mostly three ladies in tutus nobly holding things up.  Last night's show at the back of the Framlingham Station (luvvies' special pizza and Peroni £10) was free and kept the generous audience's attention despite the Peroni.

Framlingham feels like bird city at the mo'.  We saw three separate and enormous broods of Mallard duckling in The Knoll and a lucky couple have grabbed the luxury penthouse flat at the top of the crane on Mills Meadow ... the footpath down the side of the telephone exchange is finally open again, don't know why they had to close it in the first place.
