Hi all, regular lurker but so rarely post that I might as well be a newbie. I’m down from Scotland for the Derby match tomorrow with a Derby-supporting mate. Before Covid and back when we were in the same division we’d always go to the home and away fixtures together, so it’s nice to have them back at our level. He’ll be in the home end with me, but he’s a good lad so if you spot him, be kind ;)
But anyway, since this is the first time I’ve been down for a game since moving back up to Scotland, and with the train strikes and (justified) fear of rescheduling due to Sky and all, I’m staying in Ipswich on Saturday and some of Sunday with not much to do. So if you guys have any suggestions (I don’t have a car with me, it’s parked at Gatwick) on what to do on a Saturday, somewhere good to watch the football, go for some lunch, that kind of thing, then any tips would be much appreciated! Haven’t spent more than an afternoon/evening in town since I was about 3 years old! |  | | |  |

Let me start by saying, I hope you are the happier of the two come tomorrow evening.... COYB!! The Greyhound pub, a short walk from Portman Road, and next to the 'jewel of the town' Christchurch Park, was my go-to mid day Saturday match day pub. I guess others will recommend the waterfront area and St Nicholas Street area for the evening. 20 years since I was last there...Enjoy! | | | |

Still in Florida? Out there/here myself at the moment. Weather is ‘changeable’ isn’t it! |  | | |

Thanks for the tips! I’ve had a pretty good record with these games so let’s hope it keeps up. | | | |

Are you driving? If so, get out to the coast. It looks like a really warm Autumn day, a bit of a walk and some nice pubs for lunch. |  |

Sorry bud, missed your last message.
We are at Jensen Beach, East coast. 2 weeks with the odd day or two in Orlando and Tampa. Off to see Orlando Magic Friday, can’t wait! | | | |
