I have a Google search set up to Email me whenever Santon Downham crops up in the news. This is usually when we achieve some kind of weather record.
I knew it was hot yesterday but it looked like Heathrow was going to pip us at the post to be the hottest place.
Google proved me wrong. We achieved 28.2C ~ 83F which isn’t bad for May.
Normally if we get a record it appears on the EADT and regional ITV. Yesterday everyone seemed to pick up on it. Here’s an extract from the Google alert I recieved. (there were more)
If you like the rest of Santon Downham suffered a power cut over the weekend you are eligable for compensation. The amount you can claim is probably £70 but may be as much as £100.
Thetford Forest is a large pine forest to the east of England. We’ll be meeting at St Helen’s picnic site, in an area of the Forest where this diverse environment allows for many wild plants and mushrooms to flourish.
The course starts with a short introduction on what to look for and a brief of the general countryside codes.
Then we’ll set off on a roughly 2.5 hour walk around the area and along the Little Ouse river, teaching you how to identify the different plants and mushrooms that we find.
We’ll break along the way for homemade refreshment, such as our wild food soup or elderflower champagne.
Afterwards we’ll head back to the picnic site to end the day with a tasty wild food lunch based on what we have found and some pre-prepared homemade treats.
We’ll email you a list of everything we discussed on the day to help you to remember what you have learnt.

Changes to blue and black bin collection days and times
Blue
and black bin days and times in West Suffolk will shortly be changing and a
yellow tag on black bins will alert residents to look out for a letter
containing full details of what this means for them. Roll-out of the new days
and times will begin on Monday 11 November, but before then households will
have been posted their new blue and black bin collection day letter together
with a calendar to help manage the transition. Full details will also be
available to look up, nearer the time, on the council website www.westsuffolk.gov.uk/bincollections
Demand
for waste services has grown since rounds were last reviewed in 2010 and the
changes coming up will help create capacity, save waste miles and make the
service more efficient. Garden Waste Collection Service subscribers will not
see a change in their brown bin collection this year and we thank all residents
for their help in making sure bins are out by 6.30am.
