earlier in Woodbridge

we 10 Feb 2021	Judging by the queue at the back of the Community Hall the vaccination centre was open today after being closed yesterday.
su 3 Jan 2021	Positive attitude from Life Arts who have a Woodbridge Mind Body Spirit Festival planned for April.
mo 7Sep 2020	Really like Scott Mortimer's *Suffolk* Noir cards set in Woodbridge. Packs of nine cards available at Browsers Bookshop in the Woodbridge Thoroughfare.
th 9 Jul 2020	Haggis (who had a car spares shop in part of Fram DIY so he should know) says yesterday's car outside the Woodbridge Angel is a Hillman Super Minx. Despite the front over riders we have to agree because though the bonnet maker's name is unreadable it's clearly seven not six characters . We jumped for a Humber Sceptre because a chum's mother had one ... on reflection it might have been a Singer Vogue. Impressed that one time Thailand resident Haggis is now living in Spain.
we 8 Jul 2020	Woodbridge Town football club (junior and senior) had a successful 1908-1909 season, the Thoroughfare looked familiar in 1910 and much later in the century a Humber Sceptre parked outside The Angel.
mo 29 Jun 2020	Set in East Suffolk police whodunit DI Gwen Danbury has no strong sense of place but name checks locals like Orford and Woodbridge. Copper Gwen Danbury is played by the delicious Annette Badland who was so wonderful in Little Voice.
we 6 May 2020	If not a crime wave around near the coast at least a ripple. Last night both Darsham and Framlingham petrol stations were burgled, Friday a quad bike was stolen in the Yoxford area and about the same time two expensive looking bicycles were stolen from a Woodbridge shed.
we 18 Mar 2020	Aldeburgh Cinema has closed for the duration so we won't get to see Emma this afternoon but the Woodbridge Riverside seems to be partially functioning. The Red Rooster festival near Thetford has been postponed to September and Life Arts have postponed April's Woodbridge festival to next year. All Snape Maltings music events cancelled until the end of April (we were lucky), the Phoenix Singers concert in Framlingham next month cancelled as is the Campsea Ashe Spring Fayre this Saturday and still only three virus cases in Suffolk.
th 28 Nov 2019	Tomorrow week in the Woodbridge library one man show A Christmas Carol with complimentary mince pie and beverage... bah humbug eh?
we 30 Oct 2019	In the Woodbridge Thoroughfare after 25 years the Leather and Sheepskin Shop closed in the spring, the Firestation Cafe also closed but more recently and the new to us New Street Market looks very attractive and appears to contain an outpost of the Pump Street Bakery ... they do have a fan club.
th 10 Oct 2019	Usual lazy media patronising shite that anything not metropolitan is cutesy, this time Woodbridge and Framlingham ,.. mind you they managed to show Fram Castle without the sound of recorders and lutes.
mo 7 Oct 2019	♫ Saturday the Suffolk Singers directed by Claire Weston will present their concert Autumn Interlude at St Mary's Woodbridge. The programme will include works by Macmillan, Rutter and Stainer.
th 3 Oct 2019	ArtDog London have a show at ArtSpace in The Thoroughfare Woodbridge running tomorrow until next Wednesday.
su 29 Sep 2019	JOBS Wanted in Framlingham a junior project manager, in Debenham a 14 month contract accounts assistant and in Woodbridge a booking administrator plus at Jewson at a customer service advisor.
th 5 Sep 2019	A Folk & Beer Hootenanny in Woodbridge this weekend though it's not clear whether it's Saturday or Sunday.
sa 31 Aug 2019	Today pretty much all day in Elmhurst Park Woodbridge (that's the rather nice park by the car park at the back of what's now the Co-op supermarket) it's the Woodbridge Festival of Art and Music with zones and Antony's Coffee Pod. ♫
fr 26 Apr 2019	The Woodbridge garage on the A12 getting a makeover is still closed and looks like it will be for a while.
tu 23 Apr 2019	JOBS A weekend barista and waiting person wanted at the The Tea Hut Woodbridge and relief doorman/men being recruited in Framlingham where it got a bit warm yesterday in a conservatory.
sa 13 Apr 2019	It snowed in Woodbridge this morning and we took shelter in The Tea Hut by the River Deben. The river makes bits of Woodbridge surprisingly boaty.
we 23 Jan 2019	It's all the go in and about near the coast, temporarily closing petrol stations to re-model them, not an insignificant matter when there are so few to start with. Woodbridge (has it re-opened yet?), Co-op Stowmarket (not closed but building going on), Haynings Framlingham (reportedly will have a 24 hour self service pump) and now the BP garage on the west bound A14 near Newmarket. Fortunately services just off the A14 on the other side of Cambridge are copiously resourced ... three Costa Coffee machines!
we 2 Jan 2019 Eastern Angles	It must be well over a decade since we saw an Eastern Angles Christmas show and we don't recall the now available free parking at the rear of the Ipswich theatre but it's still a small cast working their socks off. Saturday it was five actors who had Fenland Screamers tightly polished prompting laughter and applause from the audience. We got to be part of a rope bridge and had an actor sit on our lap ... unfortunately not one of the ladies. The show continues this month including a run at the Seckford Theatre Woodbridge.
