Hi from Suffolk

[DIYHacker]

Hi all.. Came across this site while trying to find info on a current patio project that I am undertaking.. Refreshing to see that there are still forums out there that are active. Came across so many that aren't so this is great.

 

We moved to Suffolk from London right before lockdown started, from a 1 bed flat to a 1900's detached house with land. What a luck that was! But as with any house ownership, the list of stuff to do never seems to shrink and only ever seems to grow!

 

Looking forward to getting advise on here from everyone!

And the amazing thing is that, despite those numbers, @Pocster is known more for quality than quantity.

It's actually quite a long border

 

Suffolk literally surrounds my town and the next town from me Norfolk almost surrounds it - it's like no-one wanted either which is probably true!!!

It's the same along most of it. The river was the border most of the time, and the towns were on one side. 

I'm ten minutes in from the coast

I walked past a kind of modernist design in Nudura at the weekend near Middleton. Half-completed. Looks like a self-build but I don't remember it mentioned on here.
