A Trip to Southwold, Suffolk - 21st October 2007
The Old Chap is over to visit, which is well-timed, as it's one of those like-summer weekends. However, the downside is that it means no trips out in Nosher's new toy (the Mazda MX-5, with the roof down). Hey ho. But at least it's always nice being in Southwold. Before that, there's a night out at a noodle bar in Cambridge, some destroyed traffic-lights on Coldham's Lane in Cambridge and the annual picking of Nosher's orchard.

Around the pier are lots of small plaques for each of the renovation sponsors. Life is a mirror: if you frown at it, it frowns back; if you smile, it returns the greeting. |
