Internet blues plus some photos on recent topics



We have been having terrible trouble with our internet connection over the past few days. I spent a frustrating afternoon today speaking to a very nice gentleman from Madras who patiently got me to pull out cables and then push them back in again to no avail whatsoever! Now, suddenly we have a connection but I have not had time to write the post that I had planned about the latest exhibition at Gainsborough's House. (Worth a look; remember that admission is free on Tuesday afternoons!)


Peter Clifford, the Chairman of Chilton Parish Council has been kind enough to send me these photos from which it can be seen that firstly, as anticipated earlier in January, a lot of work has now been done by BATS to dredge out the pond at Chilton Grove to preserve the local newt population, and that secondly despite continued efforts fly tipping continues to increase on the outskirts of Sudbury. The fridge pictured was dumped on the Chilton airfield, which inevitably gets more than its fair share of rubbish.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem? (apart from the improvement of people's general education on the matter, which would take a long time!)
