tu 17 Oct 2023 | We've enjoyed a fun concert performance of HMS Pinafore with a single piano accompaniment. When the diverse instruments (including timps) fired up the Pinafore overture at the Ipswich G&S Soc rehearsal last night we grinned with pleasure. The show is at the Seckford Theatre Woodbridge 1-4 November (though ticketing is by the Wolsey).

th 7 Sep 2023 | We once broke a gas stove into small enough bits we could get rid of it in the wheelie bin over a number of weeks. A more elegant way to divest of large or otherwise furniture is to give it to Ipswich's St Elizabeth Hospice. They collect six days a week so it saves you time and money whilst helping a very good cause indeed.

we 25 May 2022 | It was free to spectate and a family atmosphere for Ipswich Sport Karate Club in the Hacheston village hall Saturday. We particularly enjoyed ref Matthew Hyndman who when a tiny was up against a not so tiny quite rightly gave the tiny gestured hints. The Ipswich in the club's name is a slight misnomer as the club meets in Hacheston and next month in Laxfield.
