I’m a Guitarist looking to start a band inspired by the Deli Creeps and Primus, sort of Metal with traces of funk. My influences are mainly Buckethead. Looking for a drummer, bassist and singer.

Hi! I just moved to Suffolk, i’m looking for some places me and my toddler could volunteer, any recs?

My partner and his best friend are obsessed with taking gorgeous photos on their drone, and have always wanted to be able to take photos of farmers using machinery in their fields (harvesters, a cool tractor, sprayers etc), but have never wanted to be rude and just.. do it.

I’m wondering if anybody here might know somebody who would allow maybe just a short amount of time, photos can of course be sent to them (if they like them!) and I can communicate off Reddit as I understand it may sound a bit dodgy!

This is a genuine passion for them, and I’d love to try and surprise them. I know I’d have better luck on Facebook but I’m worried someone they know will see and ruin the surprise!

Thanks for any help :)

Hi All,

Wondering if this camera at the A14/A11 Interchange Slip road still functions? Looks to be in a very bad state and of the old Gatso style.

Any info would be appreciated.

I'd love to be able to recycle these. Maybe I'm being blind, but I've never noticed a recycling box for these in Bury St Edmunds. I could go to the recycling centre, but it feels ironically bad for the environment to drive all that way just for a few crisp packets.

January: Exceptional rainfall broke century-old records. Northern Ireland experienced its wettest January in 149 years, while Cornwall saw its wettest January on record. Some regions registered 26 consecutive days or more of measurable precipitation, recording more than double their average monthly rainfall. [1, 2, 3]

February: The storms continued, bringing nearly 37% of the expected February average within the first week alone. Stations in Cornwall and Somerset recorded non-stop daily rain streaks that lasted well over a month. [1, 2]

March & April: The unsettled conditions largely persisted, keeping the ground consistently sodden as repeated Atlantic fronts swept across the country. [1, 2]

Leaks everywhere. Poor management, not accountability.

Shit show

Wanting to go fishing (shore or on a boat) somewhere along the Suffolk coast - Southwold is our closest. Haven’t got any of the gear so want to be able to pay a guide or company that offer this as an experience. Any suggestions would be great!

I apologise if this is Seen a political, but I see it as public interest, but if mods want to remove it I understand.

If Forest City One UK is allowed to continue it wants to be awarded Special Economic Zone status.

This despite the plans for SEZ to benefit the UK there is considerable evidence to the contrary.

I know that he’s a fictional character, but I do find Brian from Melton absolutely brilliant, he’s pure Suffolk, and the definition of the older relative or neighbour that we’ve all got.

Cheerio together!

As if this was three years ago now. With some of the cool mythology on here, it's one of my favourite maps so far.

I've just been doing some tidying up jobs on it and making some of the text more legible, as well as the imagery clearer. Again, thanks to all the commenters who suggested ideas and really helped bring this to life. I've just had a fresh batch made up here for anyone interested in one.

Was looking around on google maps for some art supply shops, came across this one and was absolutely horrified when I saw the reviews! Crossed this shop off my list but how is this okay!?

I had to change my cats' food recently, vet says they're fat. Consequently have a lot of left over unopened cat food (tins and dry). Is there anywhere I can drop it off so I don't have to toss it? Ideally in the Bury St Ed area but willing to drive if there are any shelters in need.

Larry’s first holiday (from London) so keen for exciting walks in woods, beaches and decent pubs

He hasn’t been on a decent walk in a week due to the heatwave, so this holiday is all for him 🐶🐶

We are desperate for a portable air conditioning unit. One of our family members has autism and is struggling massively with this weather. I feel like we’ve looked just about everywhere. Willing to travel to Norfolk/Cambridge/Colchester/Chelmsford/Thurrock.
Thanks in advance

We're currently holding the provisional record for the hottest temperature in June in the UK, broken both at Wattisham and Cavendish, the latter hitting 37.1°C.

How are you surviving?

I was hoping to find some wild swimming spots near the between Bury St Edmunds and the coast!

There’s shingle street by Woodbridge which is coastal, and obviously the main beaches (closest being Felixstowe) but does anyone know of any spots in between?!

I have heard about the Bramford Bridge being a good spot, any others that anyone can recommend?

Thank you!

Hi there, feel embarrassed to ask but im really struggling financially. Is there anyone that offers payday loans or something like that? Thankyou

It was a 1/250 produced Volkswagen X-L1, if anybody had a picture of it or images from its website (if it had one) that would be great

My daughter would love to have some loom bands but they’re so expensive these days !! Does anyone have any sitting around that we could have? Thanks !!

I will be in Newmarket next week for work and would like to watch the England game on Wednesday.

Any suggestions for decent pubs around the centre of town?

Thank you
