Enjoyable trip back 'home' post-match / small world
at 19:50 6 May 2024

Despite the fact that it probably stank of beer, scotch, onions and god knows what else, I traveled back to Ontario proudly wearing my shirt - two guys at Heathrow security congratulated me, one going out of his way to shake my hand.

Then on the flight itself, an elderly gentleman came up to me and said 'you must be pleased.='; he was Villa fan off to see his poorly sister in Toronto, and as he turned to go back to his seat he ended off with 'my nephew will be thrilled, he's a huge Town fan *pause* oh and he sponsors you lot...'

EADT live match updates issues?
at 20:18 12 Dec 2023

Usually follow the games via Stuart Watson's tweeted comments as relayed via the EADT, but it's not loading for me today (yes lots of other means, but I'm superstitious about following it mainly on that platform).

anyone else having issues?

Alice in Ipswich Wonderland
at 13:21 20 Aug 2022

So today the town centre is awash with people dressed as characters from Alice in Wonderland engaged in a mass outdoor escape room type deal - I know it's a commercial venture, but seriously bravo to whomever came up with this; terrific to see so many people dressed up and having fun in town - those and all the Wols, neat to see the place looking a bit more chipper.

Archaeology nerds / Wolverstone tonight
at 09:17 5 May 2022

Anyone interested in what we've been doing out at Freston on our Neolithic dig then we're burbling on about it all tonight at 19.30 at Wolverstone Berners' Hall (free).

Here's a background bit, which (a) involved me being interviewed by Deckchair Davis, and (b) shows how big the site is compared to Portman Road, so vague TWTD link...

Stonehenge exhibition
at 09:19 17 Mar 2022

Mooched down to London yesterday to see the new World of Stonehenge exhibition at the British Museum - *well* worth going to, though need to pre-book and it was still pretty packed. Spent two and a half hours there (partly because spent a bunch of time waiting for people in front of you to move so you could see the object/panel)., noggin kind of full at that point and a swifty needed in BM Tavern across the road.

They even had a section of Seahenge on display which was very cool (I'm one of those who begrudgingly admits that Boudicca was the last decent thing to come out of Norfolk, ok maybe Coleman's mustard too).

As for the requisite exhibition shop, I had to laugh at the travel pillow (bravo designer):
