Anglian Thoughts: The flood that never was
http://anglianthoughts.blogspot.com/2007/11/flood-that-never-was.html
Saturday, November 10, 2007. The flood that never was. Hundreds of families on the East coast were evacuated on the night of November 8/9, 2007, when the highest tides for more tnan half a century and widespread flooding were forecast. Fortunately the worst predictions did not come true but I got a few pictures (and wet feet) on Felixstowe sea front next morning. ANGLIAN WRITER (aka Wordrover). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Anglian Thoughts: The Felixstowe Museum Website
http://anglianthoughts.blogspot.com/2008/12/felixstowe-museum-website.html
Tuesday, December 9, 2008. The Felixstowe Museum Website. I note with sadness that the website I created for Felixstowe Museum in 2007 and updated regularly with information about new displays and events, appears to have been abandoned since I resigned on August 1 due to failing health and the cost of the weekly drive to Felixstowe, in spite of my efforts to effect a smooth transition to a new webmaster.

After a busy working life in journalism and education, I am now enjoying a peaceful retirement in a beautiful area of coast and country, where I divide my time between writing and photography.

UK Heritage & Nostalgia: Newspaper Stamps - now just a memory
http://uk-heritage.blogspot.com/2007/10/newspaper-stamps.html
Friday, 26 October 2007. Newspaper Stamps - now just a memory. The stamps shown here are from my own collection, rescued from the waste paper bin at. These examples date from the introduction of decimal currency as can be seen by the new values overprinted on older issues. ANGLIAN WRITER (aka Wordrover). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

UK Heritage & Nostalgia: A Restored Picture Palace
http://uk-heritage.blogspot.com/2007/10/restored-picture-palace.html
Friday, 26 October 2007. A Restored Picture Palace. In my childhood we did not speak of the 'cinema' but the 'Picture Palace', and the opulent façades of these buildings matched their fanciful names. Sadly, most are now gone, but a few have been lovingly restored by volunteers. ANGLIAN WRITER (aka Wordrover). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Thanks for the Memory.

Anglian Thoughts: A Suffolk Childhood
http://anglianthoughts.blogspot.com/2007/10/suffolk-childhood.html
Thursday, October 25, 2007. Peter Banyard's life and times:. I am indebted to Mr Peter Banyard, ex-RAF aircrew and Suffolk policeman, for permission to reproduce these snapshots from his childhood in Woodbridge, Suffolk. The first picture shows a group of dignitaries at the opening of a model boating pool and the second was a tree planting cereony. Both events took place in 1935 to mark the Silver Jubilee of King George V and Queen Mary. This article first appeared in. ANGLIAN WRITER (aka Wordrover).
