With our van in the VW garage,Sproughton Road,Ipswich again to have a seat
belt replaced and being invited out to lunch with my Dad and Shirley we had
we had 2/3 hours to kill :) So we headed past Morisons to the River Gipping
with the plan of looking for the Alderman canal where new footbridges and
footpath are being constructed :) At Handford sluice we cut back on
ourselves and found the tiny canal walked by it to the Ipswich Town FC
staduim,sadly the bridge and footpath work dose'nt finish until the end of
the month !!! We then nipped into Costa coffee, The Buttermarket for a
quick cuppa but no cake as out to dinner !!! Then back past Portman Road
crossing the new footbridge at Ranleigh Road and back at the van just as
they were finishing washing it after the repair !!! the second time they
have cleaned it in a fortnight - what top service and the repair was under
warrenty :)
Finishing the day with a top pub lunch at the Douglas Bader,Martlesham.
So not a walk in the countryside but a 5/6 mile walk with a differance and
fingers crossed for abit of windsurfing over the weekend :)
