mo 23 Jul 2012	What an nice change to have some half way decent weather yesterday for Mouth to Mouth's production of the musical Godspell in the Debenham Angel's garden.

Mouth to Mouth's garden tour continues this coming weekend at Hoxne, Framlingham, Orford and Laxfield.

su 29 Jun 2008	We took our lunch yesterday in Orford expecting to use that rather pleasant restaurant/cafe on the quay only to discover it's been a warehouse for the oyster people for some years apparently. So we walked back to the King's Head which despite being run by Hotel Inspector Ruth Watson was surprisingly unpretentious, the food excellent, not that expensive and very generous in quantity, and the Adnams Broadside (always a dodgy one that, in most pubs how long has it been in the pipes?) in perfect condition. Gets a tick in our book.
