Happy Suffolk Day!

[Buenchico]

For obvious reasons we've not had a lot of special events going on today but I can't let our county's special day go unmarked, so here's our very own song, "A Million Acres". (Er, shouldn't that be 400,000 hectares these days though?)

Erm, what are we supposed to do? Dance on the village green?

[bookbinder]

[Patsy33]

Lovely, Chris!
I'm clapping here :-))

[Buenchico]

Thanks for the posts.

>>> what are we supposed to do? Dance on the village green?

Flonk your dwiles, of course!

[bookbinder]

Well, erm, Buenchico, I'll - er - have to get back to you on that one. At the moment, I'm watching my robot lawnmower going to and - er - fro.

[Buenchico]

Mind your toes, Bookbinder!

[johnny.5]

Happy Suffolk Day Buenchico from another born and bred in Suffolk!

[roopower]

I didn't know it was Suffolk Day. Happy Suffolk Day, or what is left of it, from another Suffolk born and bred who has migreated to the midlands, sadly.

Happy Suffolk Day from North Norfolk! I bear no ill will ;o)

My dad and his cronies used to partake of a 'sport' they invented in the 60s at the Bell Inn in St Olaves, called nurdling, not to be muddled with games of the same name played in other parts. This game was mainly designed to get the grockles to buy locals a drink for a successful nurdle. The regulars of a pub in Beccles invented dwile flonking and appealed for an extension of pub opening times in order to play and got it!

Thanks for all the extra posts that have crept in here when I wasn't looking.

I think that you'll find this page, about nurdling at the Bell Inn, interesting, Roopower ;-)

Thanks so much Buenchico, that brought back such memories. Harold Jenner was my dad and I have the papyrus hanging on my wall. Sometimes the poor duped person was cajoled into charging down the pub corridor which was dark and tiled with hard ceramic tiles. Someone in the know stood in the entrance to one of the loos and dropped a pile of tin trays onto the floor just after they had run past. Its a wonder noone ever had a heart attack.

I loved living in Suffolk.

But today we haven't celebrated that because today is Asbo's 14th birthday so he had roast chicken for his dinner (which we shared).

[Tilly2]

Happy Birthday, Asbo.

[Buenchico]

Happy Birthday, Asbo!

(My cats are longing for shops to get back to normal, with the rotisserie counters open again. They love it when I bring freshly-roast chicken home!)

Happy Suffolk Day Buenchico
That must have taken some effort by a lot of Suffolkers (?)
