Thank you to the local Rotary Club for supporting the Southwold Sailors Reading Room with a 拢200 donation. It is financial support like this that keeps this fantastic historical building in good shape for future generations to enjoy.

Government to sign devolution deals today with Norfolk and Suffolk. Deals will ultimately lead to more money and some powers coming from whitehall to the region with a directly elected leader (not mayor!) for both counties in 2024. BUT still lots of discussion before this happens

Snow in Suffolk this morning. Is it a coincidence that British Summer Time started a few days ago!

Great Christmas Lights Switch On in Southwold tonight. Shame about the weather but congratulations and well done to all involved in organising this event for the community and visitors to the Town.

After 5 years of hard work jumping through various planning hoops the work on creating a green car park in Southwold has started today and should be open for Easter next year. Exciting times or what!

Brilliant to see the Bailey Bridge open after its refurbishment . Well done to all involved in securing the long term future of this important structure connecting the Southwold and Walberswick communities. Completed a week early and within budget!

It was great to welcome @suffolkcc Councillor Bobby Bennett to @SuffolkFire #BuryStEdmunds. A fantastic insight given by #RedWatch into the varied role of a firefighter. Thank you Councillor for your time & your desire to understand the role & the challenges.

Great day at Newmarket races on Friday. The guy taking my first bet misheard me and put my fiver on the wrong horse. Guess what it came in first and I made 拢25. Lucky or what馃榾. Tom Jones was amazing in the evening but that's not unusual 馃ぉ

Received my early birthday present today. Cheers and looking forward to next season at Carrow Road.

First sign of summer when the Beach Huts go back. Great to see people enjoying themselves on a sunny Southwold beach this morning. North East wind still a little cold and it is easy to spot the locals as they are the ones still dressed in coats and hats!

Gorgeous day for lifting the two new chimneys into position on the reconstruction of the old #Southwold Hospital site today. They weigh 2.5 ton each and are exact replicas of the originals . Well done to all involved in this important Community project.

Had my vaccination yesterday. Very smooth organisation at the Sole Bay Health Centre in Reydon. Well done to all the volunteers helping. Painless experience and no after effect. Looking forward to getting back onto the beach in the summer and with luck might even make the cruise!

Just starting snowing again in Southwold馃ザ
On our walk round Southwold over the weekend it was disappointing to see several Holiday let properties occupied. What is it about the Stay at Home regulations that people do not understand. Thousands have died during this deadly pandemic and still people are ignoring the rules!

Father Christmas arrives at Southwold Town Hall before going onto the balcony with the Town Mayor to do a virtual switch on of the Christmas Lights in 2020.

You really know when winter is nearly upon us when the Beach Huts are moved off # Southwold promenade.

My son knows me too well! Card inside reads "His idea of a hard drive was being in the car with mum". How true!
