title Pizza at the Village Hall, Brome, Suffolk - 30th April 2023 intro The Suffolk Wild Flour pizza van is back at the village hall after a two month break - thanks to a calendar SNAFU - so we cycle over with the boys for some pepperoni and a few games of stick. Before that, there's a stop off at Mellis church on the way to Gislingham on a bike ride. The church is surrounded by trees and is only really visible before full leaf, and even in winter it's not always obvious, so it's actually the first visit ever. Later, on Saturday, Nosher and Fred pop into Diss for an Andy Sausage and a visit to the cactus shop. We also see the new sculpture at Mere's Mouth, which is something about genetics and looks quite cool. imgp0141 St. Mary's missing tower, which collapsed in 1730 imgp0143 The structure of the church is a bit of a mash up imgp0144 There's all sorts going on in the east wall imgp0147 The nave and its 15th century rood screen imgp0148 A kneeler dedicated to the Mellis Railway pub imgp0150 Funky swirls of colour in the nave window imgp0152 A Saxon-style door in a blocked arch imgp0156 Fragments of Mediaeval glass in a south-east window imgp2761 Harry waits outside the village hall in Brome imgp2762 The Wild Flour van is doing our pizzas imgp2763 Fred waits for someone to turn up to open the hall imgp2764 Harry meets a big dog imgp2766 The village hall's bar has been nicely done up imgp2767 Isobel, Harry and Fred are at the bar imgp2768 Harry looks over as Isobel cues up some tunes imgp2769 Fred and Harry play a game of pool imgp2771 Fred racks up for another game of stick imgp2772 One of our games is a bit one-sided imgp2773 The hall is getting some insulation installed imgp2774 Euro Foods - once a Victoria Wines - has closed imgp2775 The new genetic sculpture by the Mere imgp2778 Two girls stage a "save the planet" protest imgp2779 Bunting's out in the Market Place imgp2780 There are some new big cacti in the popup shop imgp2781 Fred considers some smaller cacti imgp2784 The old-people's homes are in progress imgp2785 Old-people apartments near Morrisons imgp0229 Over at Chickens', Harry plays with Pepper the dog
