Some wag on FB has already pointed out that it would be a bit of a tongue twister, and could easily come across as ‘Ipswich Sh*tty’...
Tbf - if it did ever happen and we were renamed, I think I’d still think of and refer to us as Town - in much the same way I’m still convinced our stands consist of the Cobbold, Pioneer, Churchmans and North Stand |  |

St. Davids is nice, and if you don't like it it doesn't matter, it's a twenty minute walk to take in the entire city, and you can leave. |  |

Theoretically, Bury St Edmunds ought to be, as the location of the seat of a bishop (technically the Abbey has been a cathedral since 1914). |  |

Not now they're sticking a road through the middle of it. Will have to buy Mildenhall when the USAF leaves instead (it's as close as those for many holiday destinations). | |

Given that property prices in London's "Villages" seem to appreciate surely Village status would be better... eg Dulwich Village [Post edited 30 Nov 2017 8:53]

Negative, I live in a 'hood.
Though as I was an Adam & the Ants fan I think if I were one of the Village People I'd want to be the Indian. Though I think I'd more likely be the Village Idiot. | |
