A trip to Southwold!

Despite the high winds and threat of rain, Linda and I spent a very enjoyable day in Suffolk with friends Sue, Joyce, Peter and Andrew. Southwold is a delightful little seaside town, with some amazing food outlets, galleries, shops and places to eat. After a breezy walk around and a stroll to the end of the pier we enjoyed lunch in 'The Canteen', a community restaurant with an imaginative, mostly veggie menu.

After lunch Joyce and Andrew departed, while the remaining four of us made the short walk to the bijou Arts Theatre, where we settled down to watch a rendition of 'Snake in the Grass' by Alan Ayckbourn. The all-female cast of three tried hard and, despite the somewhat bizarre script and limitations of the small, one set stage, it was on the whole a pleasant experience.

A day out with Sue and Peter wouldn't be complete without supper: we chose the Waveney House Hotel in Beccles where we enjoyed our meal overlooking the river.
